Cigarettes have something like 300 chemicals in them that's where the cancer causing agents come from not the tar, marijuana has like 3 THC, Chlorophyll(planet matter), and actually that's all I can think of so I guess it's just 2. Anyway I'd choose marijuana any day over something that has cyanide in it to give it flavor wouldn't you?


complete bullshit. Cannabis has hundreds of cannabinoids/chemicals in it.

I'll stick with good old THC thankyouverymuch =o)

I can immediately tell this is propaganda by the simple statement that THC causes physical withdrawal symptoms, I'm sorry but that is complete and utter BS. I have used pot and and stopped using it many times in my life and it's no different than eating hamburgers one day and not eating hamburgers another day, ya I might get a craving for a burger sometimes but it doesn't cause physical pain when I don't indulge that craving. Pot is the same way. I'm guilty of experimenting with many drugs over the years and I can say with certainty that Pot is absolutely harmless in terms on how addicting it is. It's no different that coffee, cokes, red meat, or fatty foods. And even caffeine causes massive headaches when you stop using it. And I would much rather smoke a joint than drink alchohol or smoke cigarettes. Cigarettes have something like 200+ toxic chemicals(Pot has just one THC) in them and they DO cause physical withdrawal symptoms, and so does alchohol(DTs can actually kill a person). THC causes nothing even remotely like withdrawal symptoms, and people like Dr. Drew who I'm sure has never used a drug in his life couldn't possibly know that. I forgive them their ignorance but not for spreading lies pushed out by government owned agencies whose only agenda is to make money.

I smoke wax hash with an average thc content of 70-80% depending on the producer and strain, it really makes you love California's marijuana regulation.

Here's the scoop:

JWH-018 makes you feel more stoned than the first time you got stoned. If you don't know what that means, well... no wonder people were freaking out.

JWH-122 which i use now daily, is a LOT more mellow. I can smoke it once and be stoned all day but relaxed, more CBD like. 75$ for 5 grams that lasts months. I'm talking pure powder that i mix into my own smokable. I don't smoke blends of rose hips and bay bean sprayed with acetone dissolved JWH, like vendors sell.

These are synthetic cannabinoids, they are full agonists and bind very tightly to the CB receptors. THC and CBD are partial agonists and mitigate each others effects. These chemicals are no joke and have been available for a long time, proving that if cannabis was legal that NOTHING bad would happen. These drugs are far more potent and the world has had access to them for years by mail-order, and the results are in.

You WILL freak out if you are not a cannabis user or someone with experience smoking. I've smoked for over a decade before trying these compounds and it was like i was 16 all over again. The strange thing is the intense effects last only up to an hour, then you're ok again. The effects seem additive, whereas you can smoke cannabis non-stop, you actually reach a point of intoxication that can be nauseating (happened two times on JWH-018, I was sweating, throwing up, couldn't come down... but then I did... and it happened from using too much 018 too quick).

Also, my anxiety and depression seemed very well managed on a combination of JWH-122 and Sertraline HCl (gen Zoloft). I no longer get angry and sad, and want to just throw it all away because the world is big and scary.


Cannabis prohibition is very strange. I like being told as an American that i can't be tortured, held without cause, executed in street... but the can'ts should all be bad things. I can't smoke cannabis BECAUSE I'm American. Even the Israeli govt is legalizing medical marijuana for its citizens, yet my country who gives them money to exist, says I cannot. I can't because I'm American. Wierd. So I'll pay less to get more stoned.

What a fucking tool. Marijuana addiction? addiction?
Y'all know that SB1070 was written by Corrections Corporation of America, right? Y'all know why? Because undocumented people are seen as a source of profit ($200 per bed, per night). Same thing goes for the 'war on drugs'. Its a way for the capitalist scum to profit off our misery.
Fuck 'em


So the brain can't become addicted to the chemical reactions it receives from THC? Is that what you're saying? Why is it so far-fetched to you that marijuana is very much an addictive substance? It may not be as addictive as some other things such as methamphetamines but it most certainly is addictive. ANYTHING can be addictive if the brain sees a reward from it. Gaming, extreme sports, drugs, alcohol, even reading can be addictive. Weed IS addictive and denying that fact is only keeping yourself in the dark.

Of COURSE people make money off of it. What don't people try to capitalize on? That doesn't make it any less true that it's an affliction for many people.

i love the logic the guy is using.

so he mentions 2 drugs coming out with THC in them. we all know THC is in marijuana. so if marijuana (with THC) has no medicinal value, why are drug companies making the drugs? why would a doctor prescribe a drug with (as he claims) no medicinal value?





if you can't see that this is clearly big pharma trying to control the sale of marijuana you're an idiot. this guy should be ashamed.



i say this as someone with no interest in pot.

Whether high or not, it can be interesting to notice the many ways any situation could be interpreted.

Thank god people aren't injecting pure THC!

Oh, and as for new strains of cannabis, THC ratios haven't changed much since the '70s. Only when they take new samples of old substances where the THC has degraded do they find that it used to be less potent back in the day. More high quality stuff these days but HQ then and HQ now are about the same THC ratio. What is interesting are the ratios of the other cannabinoids which can produce different feelings and states of mind.

like every fucking drug, some are good for you, some aren't, but since they all react somewhat different with each individual, it's up to you to figure out which is good for you and which ain't.
sugar is not a good drug addiction.


Especially if you try snorting it...

So she gets high twice, has 1 good trip and 1 bad trip, and now they're reached an ultimate conclusion. Wow...science sure is easy.

It's worth noting that she's only talking about HER experience in this piece. She probably isn't the only participant in the study...

@3:38 "I'm just one of many volunteers taking part in this trial."

Reddit ripped this piece to shreds, well I mean /r/trees.

Either she is an idiot, or her editors are idiots.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabinoid

THC is a Cannabinoid. She was taking pure THC, and Cannabinoid. What the fuck does that mean?

Perhaps she meant Cannabidiol. Either way this piece is utter shit.

I've been doing this same experiment for years. Still inconclusive.
