Short-term Effects:
"Users suffer" loss of coordination and distortions in their sense of time, vision and hearing. Other effects are sleepiness, reddening of the eyes, increased appetite and relaxed muscles. Heart rate can speed up. In fact, in the first hour of smoking marijuana, a user’s risk of a heart attack increases at least five-fold. School performance is reduced through impaired memory and lessened ability to solve problems.

Hell, whats described in the first 2 sentences is why I smoke the stuff, but I'd hardly call it 'suffering'. hehe

Heart attack? These folks that write this shit are something else. Didn't they throw out that same statisic for meth? I agree my memory isn't what it was but I blame that on aging first, pot second. Solve problems? I can do that! Fire everyone of those mutha fuckers that write this propaganda.

Have any of you seen these new anti-drug ads on T.V? I'd swear whoever made them was smoking something. Even my grandmother who believes that if you need a buzz you should just drink, is confused by them. A guy takes a hit and his girlfriend laughs at him and a spaceship appears in the brackground which lands and she leaves with the alien.......!?!?!? WTF is that and how does it correlate to drugs?

Although it may not be documented too well for MJ, smoking does infact make the heart work harder than usual, and MJ itself contains chemicals that raise the heart beat. Both add up to stress on the heart, and, over time, I could see how this would increases the chances of a heart attack.

Gel, That in itself is true but what they fail to mention is that smoking anything will have the same effect. It just so happens that most of us don't smoke potatos, carrots, apples, etc... On the flipside, what happens when you eat a cigarette at evey craving instead of smoking. Not good, I'll tell ya that much

all that propaganda is really just saying:

WARNING! - Cannabis may cause you to perceive things more clearly and hence realize how fucked up the society is, which will leave you impaired and useless to the 'sheepherders' who wishes to capitalize off your ass :wink:

Guys it's ok. Apparently all this time we thought it was marijuana they were after, however it's apparently just JOINTS. I say we ban rolling paper and make herb legal, then everyone's happy.

I do not think I have ever heard anyone call it a nail though. "Hey man, wanna smoke a nail with me??"

And Texas Tea???? According to Paul Henning in the Ballad of Jed Clampett (Beverly Hillbillies theme song) Texas Tea is oil. Oil that is, black gold, Texas tea.

I think that article is rather crude :biglaugh:

Yeah, those new series of commercials are pointless and stupid. Biggest waste of money so far I've seen from them.

When the effects start to wear off, the person may turn to more potent drugs to rid himself of the unwanted conditions that prompted him to take marijuana in the first place.

Unwanted conditions?????? They talkin about sobriety? :D What a bunch of BS! If there is any correllation between cannabis smoking teens and violence or crime, its because the kids who are "good" haven't been exposed yet or are more concerned with obeying the law than other people who more commonly disreguard law....... Cause and effect, definately not.......
