Answer #4

Myth: Marijuana Kills Brain Cells. Used over time, marijuana permanently alters brain structure and function, causing memory loss, cognitive impairment, personality deterioration, and reduced productivity.

Fact: None of the medical tests currently used to detect brain damage in humans have found harm from marijuana, even from long term high-dose use. An early study reported brain damage in rhesus monkeys after six months exposure to high concentrations of marijuana smoke. In a recent, more carefully conducted study, researchers found no evidence of brain abnormality in monkeys that were forced to inhale the equivalent of four to five marijuana cigarettes every day for a year. The claim that marijuana kills brain cells is based on a speculative report dating back a quarter of a century that has never been supported by any scientific study.

Heath, R.G., et al. “Cannabis Sativa: Effects on Brain Function and Ultrastructure in Rhesus Monkeys.” Biological Psychiatry 15 (1980): 657-690. Ali, S.F., et al. “Chronic Marijuana Smoke Exposure in the Rhesus Monkey I’ve: Neurochemical Effects and Comparison to Acute and Chronic Exposure to Delta-9-Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in Rats.” Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior 40 (1991): 677-82.

Answer #5

Look this question is simple, It is illegal and I would talk to them. They would not want you to break the law. \

I don’t ever see it being fully legal. Yes for medical reasons. But I highly doubt I will be able to get high on my lunch break then go mask your dog down for surgery.

Answer #6

It’s not being a hyprocrite, it’s having opinions on different things. I never encouraged people to go smoke pot, I said I have no problem with it. Yes, it’s illegal, but that’s on the way to change right now. They have already decriminalized it in 1 one state, and hopefully more to follow. Comparing Shrooms to Marijuana is actually quite humurous though. Wow.

Answer #7

welll I know somone whos parnets smoke pot… nothing wrong with it when there stonned then ask them for money :)

Answer #8

Ok so I guess we are going to have weed bars now where you go in and smoke and figure out how you are going to get home, Not only will we have DUI’s now we will have to add, DUH. driving under a High.

They are banning smoking cig’s in public places. come on get a grip

One word. Denial.

Answer #9

well maybe they will see it hurts you the fact that they do it and try to stop

Answer #10

well you should let them be and let them do what they want cause chances are you wont be able to get them to stop so if I was you I would just not worry about it

Answer #11

I would not even care, my dad talks about how he smoked and did things when he was younger, it doesn’t bother me in the least. I see nothing wrong with marijuana use.

Answer #12

Ok I think you need to talk to them and atleast tell them how you feel about it. You know I don’t care how old they are it is illegal in most states. What cracks me up is people come on here telling a 17yr old that having sex with a 18yr old is illegal and they can go to jail. YUp that is right. What I think people seeem to forget no matter how they feel about pot, it that to is illegal. Until a law changes, you can be arrested. I just wish people would stop being a hypocrite. A friend of a friend’s son, just got caught with shrooms, He is 23yrs old and now facing 20yrs in jail, It is a federal Offiense.

Sorry having a bad day but I still feel this way. If you are going to back up the law on one answer you need to support the law on all aspects.

Answer #13

Breezy, I never said it wasn’t illegal thank you, I’m allowed my opinions on it though.

Yes, it is silly to say “Well I know you wouldn’t want me to smoke pot then operate on your dog”, well of course not, but I also wouldn’t want you drinking alcohol (which is legal) before operating on my dog either. That is the point I was making. Just because it would be legal, does not mean that you can smoke it anytime - it’s the same way with alcohol.

I also wasn’t just talking to the original person, I was responding to the person who said it kills brain cells. When that is in fact, nothing more than a myth. You have your opinions and I have mine.

I never said that the child’s parents were justified in smoking it, I said that I would not care if it was MY parents. Obviously the poster is bothered by it so of course they should try talking to their parents about it. Not everyone feels that way though, and they did ask how others would feel if THEIR parents smoked. Thank you.

Answer #14

Why not - it’s legal in other countries, it’s not that far of a stretch to think that it will be legal one day. Also, I saying that you dont think that you will be able to smoke and then go operate on a dog is silly. Do you drink and then go operate on someone dog - no. And alcohol is legal.

Answer #15

Mandy, please with all do respect, stop taking my answers as a comment to you, it was not about you, and I never once compared shrooms to pot. I am just saying if it is the law you will get busted, just like having sex with a minor.

There are a lot of other people on this site who will answer a question to a young lady dating a older man as “it’s illegal” and then talk about smoking with teenagers. You are not the only one.

Answer #16

What does it being illegal or not - have to do with not wanting your doctor to be drinking or smoking when they are high or drunk.

You are the one who said that you are sure people wouldn’t want you smoking right before operating on their dog. Well duh - who would. I also wouldn’t want someone drinking before operating on my dog. Get it.

Answer #17

I wish people would stop comparing it to drinking, the FACT is

  1. Drinking is legal
  2. cigs are legal.

It is a drug it has many negitive effects on a person’s body. I find in humours that something that is legal is being compared to something that illegal no matter what your age is. Wow

Answer #18

Funny thing is, I don’t even smoke marijuana. I just hate that everything that is known about it is a myth.

Driving while drunk results in millions of deaths a year, while driving high, doesn’t result in any. They have marijuana bars in other countires - they have no problems with them. Their death rates are way lower than ours are. Explain that.

Also, who said anything about smoking in public places…

Anyways, I’m done arguing because you have nothing to bring to the table except - it’s illegal. Peace.

Answer #19

Funny those scientist, always changes there minds. Finding the egg is good for you then they learn it is bad for you. Gee sometimes I wish they would just make up there minds, Always contradicting themselves. Finding new edvidence years later

I am sorry I would rather live by what is good, bad, and morels and be a over all well balanced person. One thing people forget is moderation. Not abuse.

Answer #20

thank u

Answer #21

pot is harmless all it does is kill your brain cells same thing with alcholal

Answer #22

I didnt’ take it to just me - sorry if you though that. I was just trying to explain as to why people think like that.

Answer #23

no prob

Answer #24

Truth and fact is what I bring to the table— it’s illegal

and until then I would be upset if my parents are putting me in a position where I could loose them, or my house depending on the servitery of their habbit.

That is what I bring to the table. Not B.S. I pulled of the internet

Answer #25

its true

Answer #26

well do you smoke?

Answer #27

Your right - scientific evidence is all B.S… humurous.
