    He’s kind of right it’s pretty easy to get. I just asked my doc for a Trazadone script for insomnia which I don’t really have and took that to the MJ doc. Oh course it’s deeply silly to have to jump through this hoop but it was an easy one. I did it because I don’t like to smoke and wanted to get the gummies and tinctures. Gave it up because after a while I wasn’t getting the same high from the same amount but also if I want to I know how to make my own.

    Sad that you think I do. Calcification of the mind is common among your ilk.

    Unfortunately folks just think we are the fun police. Unfortunately this new weed is different.

    The info is out there for all to see. It’s the tip of the iceberg.
    I wonder if anyone will care to take a look, or are they just too content to call names and use what about alcohol justification.

    FL. I don’t think I could have got the card without the script but it was pretty easy to game, claim anxiety or insomnia to your regular doc and you were good to go. The visit itself was a joke and the follow up every 9 months is a total scam.

    what about the benefits? My 19 yo & my 21 yo both enjoy cannabis. Is this all just a cost analysis....everything looks bad if subjected to a cost only analysis. damn sure wouldn't be eatin shrimp & peanut butter! mainstay of my diet.

    I bet you are a blast to hang around with. You would really benefit from some (err a LOT) of pot.

    Then I pray they don’t develop psychosis and I mean that with every fiber of my being. I’ve seen it first hand and it’s terrible.
    If I might suggest be aware of increasing use that’s one of the first signs.

    there are virtually no instances where people &/or society should make decision based solely on worst case scenarios.

    Red herring and off the topic of a Hallucination drug that has no proven medical use(save CBD high strength for sz or cancer patients with intractable pain).

    If it’s so safe an effective why hasn’t the American Psychiatric Association endorsed its use by people under 25?

    I never called it safe or effective. I think I'm done here. You seem to be a 1 trick pony. It can cause psychosis, hence it should be illegal. cool

    So if it’s not safe or effective and has serious potentially terrible consequences why should it be available to people at high risk?
    Russian roulette with your kids brains?
    It’s being promoted as a panacea for all that ails you with no discussion of the risks.
    You’re done because the experts say it’s a bad idea for kids under 25 and that doesn’t fit your idea on it.

    You can stick your head in the sand but the fact is the stuff now isn’t like what it was 20-30 years ago.
