  1. Smaak we get your meaning but you are wrong.

  2. Smaak. I'm not going to claim that weed cures everything but I know for a fact that it has medical uses. The first day I got home after having back surgery I was fking miserable (was in the hospital for almost a week before then). I couldn't eat. I was in extreme pain everywhere. I was legally given Vicodin and was popping a pill at least every 2 hours to help with the pain but still I was absolutely hating life. A couple days later I was able to get some weed illegally. It's difficult for me to describe how big of a difference it made. I was able to eat and my pain went from intolerable to manageable. I was able to take significantly less Vicodin which I very much feared becoming addicted to. Does that mean I think that we only should have access to weed for medical purposes? No. Why should we? As an adult I also enjoy weed for recreational uses and because I'm living in Colorado I am able to do so without being a criminal at the same time. The government here taxes it and regulates it as they should, people are able to partake in smoking without being persecuted but other than that life here is the same in whatever backwards state I'm assuming you live in where people have idiotic ideas about weed such as yourself. I'm not telling you you should be smoking it but I am telling you it is absolutely none of your business if I want to smoke. I don't drink or do any other drugs of any kind but I enjoy MJ because despite your dumb ideas it works. I don't care if it doesn't cure all.... it makes me happy. Do you have a problem with me doing something that makes me happy? I've never actually had snake oil but I'm betting it doesn't make me happy the way MJ does. And unlike you (I assume, but it seems safe to assume considering your clueless thoughts on the issue) I am not talking about something I have no experience with. I have decades of experience so I know what I'm talking about.

  3. Peter S... I agree that all the drugs you listed are all wonder drugs (in that they have exceptionally valuable medical uses) but marijuana is not like them in one very important way... NOBODY DIES FROM MARIJUANA.

  4. Smaak. Your original statement was, "Another word for "wonder drug" is "snake oil"." I think this was a stupid statement because it implies that you think MJ is the equivalent of snake oil. I assume you mean snake oil to mean; something that is sold as medicine but that is not really useful or helpful in any way. MJ on the other hand absolutely has medicinal value and is very helpful in a variety of ways. But I guess you are just really hung up on the "wonder drug" part. I guess you are suggesting that wonder drug means it cures any and everything that could ail somebody. I guess you were saying that if only it were a real wonder drug we would be able to smoke it and be immortal if it were a real wonder drug. Nobody but you thinks that is the definition of a wonder drug. Merriam Webster's online dictionary defines wonder drug to mean, " a very effective drug." That is the definition I was using. I'm sorry I was not using your fantasy version to define wonder drug.

  5. Regarding, "There is nothing that "cures what ails ya". You are an idiot. Please remember you said this the next time you get sick and stick to your beliefs. Do not take any medicine of any kind if you sincerely believe something so stupid.
