There was a show not too long on The History Channel about the history or marijuana in the US and how it came to be illegal. very interesting. Just the usual shit... like the fight against porn. A couple crusaders, way back when, calling it a drug for hahahahahahas and junkies and no one spoke up... just like today porn is equated to CP in any and all government hearings and no one speaks up.

I was in a pissy mood a few years ago and wanted to argue with my dutch friend about the harmful effects of marijuana and was VERY surprised to see almost zero studies about it. I actually brought this up with a friend of mine the other day who runs a medical research lab and he said that simply there is no reason to since there is no government funding for it and nothing to and most medical research relies on federal funding... or private funding when its an investment in drug research. he has a masters in Bio Chemistry and i was asking him to run down the lists of harmful effects of marijauna and he wasn't aware of any other than possible effects on short term memory and quickly he then quickly pointed out that nasty shit that a typical american diet does to you.

i dont smoke weed, but i personally don't see a reason for it to be illegal. the fact of the matter is that remains illegal because its associated with an image of the ignorant, idiots and losers. the more those same idiots and losers try to talk about legalization, the more they tend to cement that very image into peoples minds with their dumb arguments, limited vocabulary and poor heigene.
