I, Unlike you, believe i have done nothing wrong by using cannabis, a natural plant that Iuse very responsibly. I do not see why you think the way you do abot it. I mean it's just a plant, harmless at that. Even if you say its smoke is carcinogenic, there are 2 ways around this. I can buy a vaporizer which gently heats it up just to the point where the THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) get vaporized and is emitted as a cloud of vapor (odorless too) which can be inhaled without the fear of getting cancer. Cooking with it is just that. It needs to be cooked with something containing fats/oils becuase the harmless active ingredient THC is fat soluble. There is also another way that involves high proof alcohol, but i refuse to drink alcohol. As i have researched, and others have researched, alcohol is deadly-a true legal poison. I have never even smoked a cigarrette becuase my health is more important than a buzz. Notice how i said HEALTH. Marijuana is harmless. If i even suspected it has harmed me i would have stopped immediatly! You may have heard about the gateway theory that Marijauna will lead to other drugs, it may be for some but i believe the penalties for REAL drugs should be alot harsher than they currently are. I think i should be able to use it only outside as to not stink up the house. It helps me understand what i normally could not. It also boosts my creativity, nothing is better than having a pad and paper to draw on. It also relieves my jaw pain. You may be thinking there are legal presciption drugs out there to combat this, but i do not want to be like you taking codiene, tylenol 3, celebrex and another cocktail of drugs which leaves you in bed most of the time. All the pain relieving medication in the house will not even touch the pain. I have trouble going to sleep sometimes and a short session of 5-6 puffs will relax me to the point where i can sleep. It makes everything more enjoyable also. You may also think it causes Hallucinations and Voices in my head , THIS IS VERY FAR FROM THE TRUTH. It provides a tingly body, and euphoria. It is not addicting at all, no matter how many people you talk to. I am 99.9% sure they have never used it. You may also think it makes people dumb as a rock. This is far from the truth. As you have seen my GPA has been raised to an almost 3.0 (2.875) That goes to show how it helps me pay better attention (No i am not ADD/ADHD WHATSOEVER!)and helps me understand difficult concepts. Also when you were not home dad called me "Weak Minded". The question i want answered is - who is weakminded? I do not judge people to make myself better, saying i should be ashamed of cannabis is just wrong. It has done so much for me. Non-Users like yourself (do you choose not to? or is becuase your in the Navy?) cant even begin to imagine what this natural plant is capable of. You say i can get arrested for it. I know the risks of it with the law- which is soon to become changed becuase more and more people are realising the facts about marijuana, not the government bullshit they shove down peoples throat. You are one of these sheep they have reached. Do not even say you are not a sheep. I tried to tell you how it's not bad at all, you wouldnt hear it. You kept stating about how they wont even allow it for medical purposes(Raich V. Ashcroft) If you think it's bad explain why 10 states have enacted medical cannabis laws allowing it (Tennessee also has a law on the ballot, SB1942) I mean i wrote this becuase i wanted to try to get through to you and educate you and the way I feel about it. I hate to tell you this but i will always love this plant. This is ME saying this , so dont say its the pot changing my brain. I guess you will never understand since your so close minded. I actually WANTED to join the military directly after highschool, but i've noticed it's changed you. Hopefully when you retire you will have time to think about how you act support the USA's draconian marijuana laws. How can they outlaw nature? How can they Tell Responsible American Citizens (who pay them, emply them, and elect them) what they can or can't put in their own bodies? I do not know, maybe you can tell me? When you said it was a poison...what made you say that? my thinking is that you do not understand it, or the reasons why I use it, so you say what you THINK it is. If it was a poison i would have been dead long ago.
