Marijuana- Positive or Negative

                                                        
This was quoted out of an article on www.druglibrary.com, "History has dictated that there definitely is a role for marijuana in society. Science has shown that there are more positives than negatives in smoking marijuana. Up to this point in time, all of the evidence presented so far has made it clear that when it comes to the issue of marijuana for therapeutic use, the benefits outweigh the risks."



Now with that medical statement I'm going to run with it and hopefully I don't crash...lol! There is so much controversy when it comes to the legalization and/or smoking of marijuana. So many people dedicate their life to informing people of all the negative things that marijuana  may induce while being consumed. How often do you hear someone voice the things about marijuana that are positive? 


I agree that there are many people who take advantage/abuse the accepted reasons for marijuana use, but that doesn't discredit the positive things that come from it. Ancient scholars and wise men called marijuana "panaceas" meaning cure-all. Most people are aware that marijuana has it's positive uses regarding AIDS/AIDS treatment, Theraputic Services and Glaucoma. However, there is so much more. It has medicinal uses for Multiple Sclerosis, Cancer Treatment, Depression, Epilepsy, Migraine Headaches, Asthma, Psuritis, Sclerodoma, Sever Pain and Dystopia. Marijuana also has over 60 chemicals in it's composite that have different uses as well. Cannabidiolic acid is a powerful disinfectant and Cannabol helps induce sleep. Cannabis can also be processed into a bio-mass fuel(clean burning), helping to cut down on the destruction of the O-Zone. 


Honestly I think people are so wound up in destroying things, that "society" may disapprove of, that it blind sights the positivity in things viewed as negative. People have been using marijuana for over 3,000 years, get used to it! That doesn't mean that it's o.k. for people to be walking around abusing it's uses. However, I do believe that instead of being content with destroying the image of marijuana, society should begin to view it's positivity. Stop looking at it's face value and put effort into discovering more of it's uses. Not everything is as bad as it seems!

  4. Good Job! I think what contributes to everyone being "wound up" is because of how our hypocrtical gov't classifies Mary J. In the eyes of the DEA (and the White House Drug Policy Office) weed is at the same level as crack. Sad, beacuse crack and powder cocaine are classified as two different drugs and comes w/ 2 different crimminal penealties...but thats a whole 'nother convo! Keep up the good "Wrighting"!

  5. I agree with viaspeaker. Today's society has indeed been so busy destroying things that they know nothing about, rather than just learning about it before they make irrational judgements or drag it through the dirt.
