History of Weed

From 2727 B.C. to the present, Weeds presents a brief history of cannabis. New episodes Monday at 10PM ET/PT beginning June 8th only on Showtime. Music by Emeen Z at www.myspace.com/emeenz case and point.... marijuana is an herb, not rly a drug... because drugs are man made; synthetic..... but since marijuana grows from the earth... i dont think it should be classified with other "drugs".

Why is Marijuana Illegal?

If people are going to try and prevent drugs, they shouldn't focus on weed. Weed is harmless. We should be focusing on harder drugs like heroin and crack which are actually dangerous and actually ruin lives. Nobody will ever blow somebody for a nickel bag of weed would they? Or would they steal silverwear and jewlery from their parents just for a fix? I don't think so.
marijuana doesnt contain polomium. 210Po. However most people smoke it with tabbaco, so you still get thet shit, put there are better ways thought.Think about how many people that have died, and will continue to die from cancer related causes. Especially that chemotherapy...deadly. Anywho, if we legalize pot. We will get Cannabis oil to the people with cancer. We would save lives. I could care less if the government decides to ruin Marijuana for recreational use. I am for the legalization to save lives. Like I said before. You got a problem with legalized pot. Then find something else just as pleasant to do in your spare time.

The Medical Facts On marijuana

Marijuana is far less dangerous than alcohol or tobacco. Around 50,000 people die each year from alcohol poisoning. Similarly, more than 400,000 deaths each year are attributed to tobacco smoking. By comparison, marijuana is nontoxic and cannot cause death by overdose. According to the prestigious European medical journal, The Lancet, "The smoking of cannabis, even long-term, is not harmful to health. ... It would be reasonable to judge cannabis as less of a threat ... than alcohol or tobacco."
