I saw this on bungie.net, so I thought I'd post it here.http://americannewsreport.com/nationalpainreport/ama-opposes-legalization-calls-marijuana-dangerous-drug-8822463.html


One of my uncles was a delegate at this meeting. He said the delegates from California asked everyone to take a neutral stance, and there was an instantaneous "lolno", and they all voted to oppose what is going down in Colorado and Washington.

They decided on allowing the Colorado and Washington "experiments" to go on, and study the negative consequences to try to build a case for a more restrictive form of legalization, or just put an end to marijuana legalization altogether.

Here is an article written by both the president of the American Psychiatric Association and the chairman of the American Society of Addiction Medicine on their plans to study Colorado and Washington thoroughly: http://psychnews.psychiatryonline.org/newsarticle.aspx?articleid=1864116

BRB marijuana shrinks your sperm

BRB "Regular cannabis use during the teenage and young adult years is associated with poorer cognitive function (verbal memory, processing speed, cognitive inhibition, sustained attention),"

BRB "Marijuana has some addictive qualities. Study finds that 40 percent of those in an outpatient treatment program for pot use exhibited withdrawal symptoms — a hallmark of drug dependence."

BRB "Smoking cannabis doesn’t make you more creative: Cannabis with a high concentration of THC does not improve creativity. Smokers who ingested a low dose of THC, or none at all (they were given a placebo), performed best in the thinking tasks that the test candidates had to carry out."

Yeah, pot is a remedy that can fix many medical problems. The fact that it's a weed and it can grow anywhere would make doctors go broke. It's rather obvious this is the reason they don't support it

No, weed has a ton of carcinogens in it, and you can't standardize its dosage by smoking it, this is why you can't use it as medicine. The whole foundation of medicinal chemistry is to isolate the medicinal properties of marijuana and make it into a form where you can standardize its dosage. This is what they are doing right now, putting millions of dollars into cannabis derived medication that is non smokable

And just to tell you, my uncle told me the reason why they approve of letting colorado and Washington to go by unscathed for the moment is that some legal teams said there could be some forms of regulation that could in theory work out.  The only way for them to see if these alternate forms of regulation can work, while keeping marijuana abuse low, is to experiment with Colorado and Washington and see what happens.

And they'll put a patent on it, sell it as a prescription, and profit big time off of it

Smoking it acts as a natural pain killer, leaving the person free from pain of whatever they suffer from. It also helps stimulate appetite in people with cancer and AIDS

.  The uk docs are against it too, from what I remember they opposed the reclassification of cannabis from class B to class C.     From what I read, the French take illegal drug use seriously too.     I think smoking weed is a personal choice though.

.   Smoking weed has carcinogens in it, so does vaporizing.  You don't give a cancer patient carcinogens.   This is why marinol synthetic THC exists.     You don't smoke cigarettes for medicinal properties, you don't smoke weed for medicinal properties.     Also the docs won't profit off of this, just like they don't profit off of the creation of any medicine.    And again, they are considering letting legal marihuana, in a more restrictive manner, proceed because of the high costs of Prohibitionism.  This does not support your conspiracy theory that they're opposed to weed because it's a controversial medicine.              Medicine is not smoked, deal with it.

Well, it's not a weed. It's a plant with flowers.

But the problem is not that they couldn't make a profit, it's that legalizing cannabis and really taking advantage of all its uses (including hemp) would destroy the oil industry, the lumber industry, and big pharmaceutical companies which sell more expensive medicine and treatment. Curing cancer doesn't generate as much money as "treating" it.
Are we, for once, in agreement with something?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Oh lord. I don't know what's worse, that you think vaporized weed has carcinogens, or the fact you're saying this shit on a role playing account.
. They did empirical studies demonstrating this.  Buy a subscription to the medical journal Lancet and type in vaporized marijuana smoke.    Also, whether you like it or not, they found 50 to 70 percent more carcinogens in smoked marijuana than smoked cigarettes.

.  Hemp has been legal here in canada since 1998.   Nothing major has happened.  Get over yourself stoners, you're overselling weed.

>calling me a stoner

There are literally 100 uses with hemp. Wood, paper, fuel. Educate yourself.
.   In canada, they didn't find it as useful as  you seem to.    Also, weed doesn't cure cancer, one of my parents works in medical marijuana research. The isolated compound cannabidiol is where most of the cancer research on weeds medicinal properties occurs. Cannabidiol is the component in weed that doesn't get you high.

Have fun with your tiny sperm

BRB marijuana shrinks your sperm

BRB "Regular cannabis use during the teenage and young adult years is associated with poorer cognitive function (verbal memory, processing speed, cognitive inhibition, sustained attention),"

BRB "Marijuana has some addictive qualities. Study finds that 40 percent of those in an outpatient treatment program for pot use exhibited withdrawal symptoms — a hallmark of drug dependence."

BRB "Smoking cannabis doesn’t make you more creative: Cannabis with a high concentration of THC does not improve creativity. Smokers who ingested a low dose of THC, or none at all (they were given a placebo), performed best in the thinking tasks that the test candidates had to carry out."
Could you stop being a fag? Thanks. And then stop swallowing everything the media shoves down your throat.
