World's oldest marijuana stash totally busted

A barrage of tests proves the marijuana possessed potent psychoactive properties and casts doubt on the theory that the ancients only grew the plant for hemp in order to make clothing, rope and other objects.
They apparently were getting high too.
Lead author Ethan Russo told Discovery News that the marijuana "is quite similar" to what's grown today.
"We know from both the chemical analysis and genetics that it could produce THC (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid synthase, the main psychoactive chemical in the plant)," he explained, adding that no one could feel its effects today, due to decomposition over the millennia.

The ancients knew that cannabis is a medicinal plant and recognized its great value, thus giving this shaman 2 pounds in the after life. They are still right, even today. Kids only kill other kids in schools, political rallies, and malls because they are given prozac, zoloft, paxil, celexa, or lexapro. Those kids given the herb would be healed instead of becoming even more psychotic. People make me laugh when they say cannabis makes you psychotic. Psychotic with what? PIZZA?

What is so benevolent with our main legal drug alcohol? Innocents killed by drunk driving, the drunken parent beating their child, liver damage, brain damage, or just straight alcohol poisoning?
That is funny because no one overdoses on cannabis, no one gets up and feels like they want to beat someone up due to cannabis, hell... even British scientists studied the effects of cannabis on the auto driver and guess what they found - the potheads are less likely to get into an accident because they slowed down more and have become more aware of their surroundings. Propaganda against cannabis disgusts me. It is comparable to America taking your freedom with their private jail system for profit. There is no profit in a natural herb that promotes peace, health, and spirituality. There is profit however from incarceration, cotton, paper from trees, and artificial textiles - all of which the cannabis plants make obsolete.

Weed has been in human civilization before the common era... What makes you think they didn't smoke it then?
What the hell do you think was in a Native American peace pipe?
In addition, this is good news on my birthday... They should also have legalized cannabis, that would've been even better news.

Are you talking about wolfmen? I fail to comprehend your incoherent babbling.
You tell me the difference between someone who's smoking cannabis and someone who's on prozac and then maybe you have something to complain about. I'll even start you with one:
Prozac makes you more likely to commit suicide, while weed does not.

This is a frequently argued topic, whether marijuana was cultivated for the production of hemp products or for the psychoactive properties. To me, this is a no brainer, but it's nice to have solid proof like this.
Stand by for the anti-marijuana advocates who have a hundred reasons why although the plant could produce THC, they still weren't smoking it. - 1 year ago

dropout: If you did proper research you would know. hemp doesn't come from the pot plant but from the hemp plant that is devoid of THC. the reasons behind the illigalization were two seperate issues (immigration*pot* and petrolium companies*hemp*) You can be motivated like crazy dude but your not gonna get far in life without proper un-biased knowlage! No issue with your comment....but without the right info you will never have much to stand on when you try and defend your side. (not trying to slam you just some strong advice here)

PressCore:
Actually many people will try to argue that the original crops had THC levels too low for getting high on (like modern industrial hemp) and that it was purely a textile based crop until more recent times when people cultivated it to increase psychoactive content.
There's a lot of mis-understanding about cannabis even among those who claim to know a lot about it.
