I have, very large bodies of research say both yes and no. It’s a coin toss.
Get MJ off the schedule 10 and then we can discuss. There’s are reason, after a century, it’s still there.
Really? So I read some of your posts and I think we likely agree 98-99% on what’s important.
Your homepage states: While I am not always right on a matter, I am teachable...
What reason did they use when they made it illegal? They had no scientific data.
Do you know which groups benefit the most from using it?
If someone around you is stoned how do you even know if
they clear the bad breath and eliminate the bloodshot eyes?
Granted your ‘both sides’ research is pretty heavy about it’s bad qualities, but once again how was that scientifically proven?
Mankind has been using MJ the same as alcohol throughout history. One is harmless and not physically addictive except for a short-term lowering of IQ ~10 pts (yes, agreed some can not afford to add to their stupidity) while the other is highly addictive to some, kills all living cells that it comes in contact with, and severely lowers IQ and autonomy to the point of total loss of bodily control and memory.
Now ask yourself what was the true motive for making it illegal in the 1930’s? Better yet did Harry Anslinger prove to be correct with his ATF movie/propaganda?
Some people just want all ~ 100k or so laws (currently) enforced to perfect our culture. A true Christian might notice 10 commandments whittled down to just 2. Or maybe also notice if we had stuck tightly to the Constitution then how many new laws are really needed?
Now that Roe v Wade was overturned, we as patriotic citizens should be enlightening ourselves regarding how many other laws violate the intention of the founding fathers.
The ‘leaders’ that followed the FF, many have been taking their oaths with fingers crossed behind their backs. Think about it, fpr crying out loud they made a plant ILLEGAL, a plant that many enjoyed but many more used for a myriad of symptoms AND it worked!
Here’s an eye-opener for you to research: Science for blood pressure and it’s most widely used prescription lisinopril.
Here’s a hint: More leftist hypocrisy and projectionism claiming those selling many healing ointments, tinctures, and simple compounds in the 1930’s were labeled ‘what-type-of’ salesmen.
The reason it’s illegal is that the DemocRats wanted another reason to enslave blacks on their prison plantations a century ago. They claimed that black men were getting high on marijuana and raping white women. Reefer Madness was propaganda to keep it illegal during Prohibition.
