Yes, I am talking about money. Property seizure is quite lucrative for the Government, just another great revenue stream. That won't change, they'll take everything you have.

One can get away with it with alcohol, but Pot requires electricity hogging grow lights. That shows up on your electricity bill.

No pot does not require all that. Big indoor pot businesses do, but again we are talking about money. Anyone can grow a few plants right next to there tomatoes.

Again you are right, but your really talking about money. If you make alcohol and grow weed for your own use not money the likelihood of getting in trouble is very low. I can get both within 10 min if I want it. The government creates criminals.

Legalization will inevitably lead to Big Tobacco taking over Big Pot, the big government types will see it as a new revenue stream.. They have the money and the clout to do what Big Alcohol did.....corner the market. You can bet along with legalization "of use" growing your own will become VERY illegal. Having a still can land you in jail unless you meet all the regulations and have prior approval of paperwork to operate a distilled spirits plant.

You are right. Grow your own organic marijuana. Most people have a house plant and pot is easy to grow. 2 plants can keep most high for a year. The greed to grow the most is because of big business. The government need not be involved. BTW mint plants help keep many bugs out of plants, including spider mites.

It can make you feel good and feeling good improves healing. Petting a dog or cat will do the exact same thing. If a rock makes you feel good, the effects of that rock are the same as a joint.

I seriously doubt this.   It's more likely that the extract used, cannabiol, has properties that stimulate bone growth and strength, and that this has nothing to do with pscyho active properties.

It's worth reading the study though to see the experimental protocol.  Was the amount of food eaten controlled, set the same between the group given the extract and the control group? 

If the effect of the extract was simply to stimulate eating, that could explain the experimental results.  Maybe rats with broken bones don't exactly feel like eating, and rats with broken bones given the extract want to do nothing other than munch on doritos in sheer blisss....

I've been reading about the vast and endless amount of advantages the consumption of THC has in the body, but for those advantages to remain I suspect the consumption would need to be not casual but almost daily, which in return will have cons as well if you are prone to certain genetic conditions such as schizophrenia. Not sure how the overall pro/con balance falls at.

It can make you fail a drug test and lose your job.

"The Times of Israel reports that researchers at Tel Aviv University found that rats with broken bones healed much quicker when given the non-psychotic marijuana component, cannabidiol or CBD."

well that is just stupid then isn't it, if this is true, why should you be fired for taking your medicine

proof the war on drugs ruins more lives then the drugs themselves

Pot is not a plant you want to grow in your house. Unless you LIKE the smell of skunk spray.

You don't have to grow it in doors and all pot does not smell like skunk. Some even smells fruity. I was just trying to make the point that it is easy to grow.
As a teen I smoked some but quit before I was out of high school, around 1981. Well life happened things changed over the years. Now I'm 50 and disabled for years now. Was drinking to much because of pain and depression and I can get morphine from the doc but I don't like that stuff plus withdrawals ( I've gone through many times) sucks. I always felt weed should be legal just never smoked it and thought the whole "it helps with this and that" was B.S. But decided to try it and now I see that it does help. I just didn't know it before because nothing was wrong with me. That being said I like to be sober because my mind is much clearer, but at the end of the day it makes life much easier with no health risk that I know of. I eat it. Any one hungry? lol
P.S. I am not a liberal I'm closer to a redneck.

And get you arrested and put in jail as a political prisoner. Other than that it is safer than alcohol and tobacco 10 times fold or more.

I sense some of you didn't even read the article.

The healing power of CBDs is only now becoming known. How many stories of people with chronic (heh) seizures who's re-seizure rates drop like a stone in water upon ingestion of cannabis high in CBDs (and generally low in THC)

If one buys weed from someone else ya don't know what the hell the grower sprayed on it to keep the pests like spider mites, thrips, aphids, white flies and caterpillars off the plants, all of which will eat the pot as it grows. One also doesn't know what the hell the grower sprayed on it to keep the diseases like botrytis, powdery mildew, leaf septori and rust off it either. The goal for the grower is the biggest yield possible. Who know what sort of chemical compounds are created when pesticides/fungicides are burned.

Here's how it is for some people. If a person has a chronic illness or pain they can be not in there right mind and a little slower on the pills the doc gives you or weed. Your choice but I don't know what the hell is in those pills.

"We found that CBD alone makes bones stronger during healing"
The CBD is non-active in the cannabis. It can be made in labs and I believe it is the future of healing bones.

The Times of Israel reports that researchers at Tel Aviv University found that rats with broken bones healed much quicker when given the non-psychotic marijuana component, cannabidiol or CBD.

The study, published in the Journal of Bone and Mineral Research on Thursday found that the bones not only healed quicker, but were also stronger and more resilient against a repeated fracture, meaning the bones treated with marijuana were much less likely to break again.

It's just stupid and funny.
Marijuana. Is there anything it CAN'T do?
But can it heal a broken heart?
If not I don't need it at all.

Indeed it can heal a broken heart. Back in 1968 my hippee chick girlfriend broke up with me. I was in the pits of depression, but later that night her best friend, a gorgeous hippy chick turned up at my door with this big cheech and chong sized doobie, Acupulco Gold. As I nursed on that joint and she nursed on my joint suddenly a little time later my broken heart was healed. I ended up marrying her a few years later.

The powers of good herb is just amazing.

Obviously, no one read the article. The component of marijuana that was studied is CBD, which is non-psychoactive. So, you won't flunk a drug test, and it won't make you "feel better." There is no one so naïve as to dismiss a scientific study based on personal bias against a drug.

Its bullcrap BS. The high ons rats didnt get off the couch for weeks.
