I didn’t know marijuana had addictive qualities. Is this some type of new marijuana?

Apparently it’s the same kind that the National Institute on Drug Abuse says is addictive:

But, hey, what do most professional physicians know anyway.

More like a new level of idiocy in supposed “journalism”.

The very same agency, or I should say, the progeny of the very same agency that produced “Refer Madness”, now tells us Marijuana is addictive.

And cites no evidence whatsoever.

It’s not like these guys have a solid, unbroken record of credibility.

A local conservative talk host was converted on medical MJ after his wife found relief from these creams. A friends 103 yo grandmother loved it as well. I asked if they told her what was in it.”Hell no...we just told her it was herbal.”

“But, hey, what do most professional physicians know anyway.”

Hard to say these days when we witness so call ‘professional physicians’ give their opinions on certain subjects based on their obviously ideological, biased political leanings like Dr. Brandy Lee did. I’m sure this whole marijuana debate is full of doctors with biased or bought opinions.

“This push for pot is not really coming from the freedom-loving culture of rock music. Instead, like gambling, legalizing pot is driven by a multi-decade campaign of investors seeking to profit from cannabis, as it’s now being advertised for marketing purposes.”

Oh those wascally capitalists! When will they cease trying to dream up new ways to make a profit and stimulate economies!!!

Pff, from the way FReepers talk about it, Colorado is a wasteland strewn with hippie bums and permanently shrouded in a haze of marijuana smoke, with erratic drivers crashing into everyone and everything.

It must be true. I mean, why would they lie?

Both my mom and mother-in-law have never smoked marijuana and it took some convincing they weren't doing anything illegal, but now they love it. My niece makes the purchase. I think this is the product she purchases: https://cannabisnow.com/cannabis-topicals-arthritis/

“Denial works for some never met a stoner who could stop for very long.”

That’s pretty circular reasoning. If you met them and they had stopped for very long, you probably wouldn’t consider them a “stoner”.

“I thought marijuana use was mandatory now.”

Only for you and only when you’re actually hitting it.

Yeah, if I recall correctly there are 400 something chemical compounds in the plant.

No surprise at all the any number of them would have good uses.

They're not lying - they're suffering from advanced cases of confirmation bias.

If concerts won’t allow smoking pot, why do the rest of us have to put up with its pungent odor and harmful consequences?

Kids who play the knockout game use the stink to their advantage. All they have to do is smell for a pothead walking by, and they automatically have their next easy clueless target.

And Team Pothead has no biases, ideologies, and deceptions of its own. Right.
