Study links smoking pot to testicular cancer

[jabez]

Phelps is all over the news, which goes against how bad the government claims cannabis is, since his a incredibly hard working bloke and not a pyscho brain dead loser. So they bring out a BS study that claims cannabis gives you cancer, notice they claim it gives you a cancer that is common in young people?

 

This is a old tatic of government propaganda!

Fark aye, I couldn't have said it better myself, jabez.

 

Your starting to scare me.

[Teucer]

Fully agree Pebbz

 

I'm a bit concerned about jumping on the medi-pot bandwagon. Big Pharm always synthesise their drugs for patency reasons. So I'm not sure that will legalise the smoking of pot. I hope so and Canada and CA are certainly disagreeing with me with is great news.

 

Just call me paranoid I suppose.

 

I mean, methodone comes from poppies but you're not allowed to have or consume poppies right?

 

I see a similar thing happening. I just hope to God I'm wrong.

Marinol...( got a new name now..don't know what it is now ) the synthetic...or artificial version of thc that the yanks have prescribed medicinally in the past is like the worst experience you will ever have on the strongest

most phychedelic weed x2...tried it once...never again..sorta like the difference between drinking 4 longnecks of beer over a few hours and

sculling a 750ml bottle of vodka in 60 secs....that's the best way I can describe it. Intense in every way...the nausia it gives you outstrips any benefit..

 

Unless weed is regulated stricter than tobacco and alchohol ( and it can't be...by it's very nature...) it wont be accepted by western--or any--governments.

 

Have you noticed that it's (generally) only in 'uncivilized' and/or non westernized countries that cannabis has the most acceptance?

When a country starts accepting western help it almost always ends up with a 'seepage' of the War On Drugs into that countries legal system

 

and until it can be grown by anyone....and hydro becomes unsustainable because ya can grow it in ya yard...it will continue to be bred for strength of thc...thus making it a little more 'dangerous' in the eyes of the lawmakers who are profiting from the War On Drugs.

 

War On Drugs....what a laugh!

 

I appreciate your view about reluctance to jump on the medi-pot bandwagon....but I can't say I share it...

until you've 'been there' and needed that ride on the wagon...ya just can't appreciate it ...it was that way for me..

...now I appreciate the 'wagon' and even roll spliffs for the driver

Ok, so maybe some studies are being done into cannibis and cancer treatment... but it will still be a long long time before the powers that be will allow it to be a successful aid in everyday life. You still have to convince the government, the media and the general public who have spent the majority of their lives being of the opinion that marijuana in any of it's forms is a bad thing. The truth of the matter is, and the sad fact. it's not until ur in a position where you rely or treat yourself by smoking cannabis, you will ever understand where the benefits are.

 

There will always be those that don't get it, or refuse to listen to the facts because that would mean everything they were told about it in the past was misconstrued, or just plain old lies. That's alot to deal with for some.

 

It's kinda like the old saying "I'll believe it when I see it for myself"

Ohh ma neck, ma back... and now ma s

 

Overlooking the studied success' of cannabinoids with many cancers, its interesting to see this study come forward right now.

Have to agree with jabez. Good work on the anti prop guys.

 

Teucer, you're already on the bandwagon bro. The herb makes you feel good right?

 

Well said Pebz, it might be never that whomever(UN?) allows world governments freedom to legal, homegrown cannabis.

But this fact certainly doesn't stop cannabis from being successfully used as an aid in everyday life - for millions of people.

Please pass this on to as many people as you know... it all begins with us given our goverments are far too busy making money out of our illnesses.

Them is some good, solid arguments folks.

 

I like the way you put things MuA. Very balanced, sound arguments. I always enjoy reading your posts because you always add something.

 

I did not realise an attempt to synthesise THC or any other Cannabinoid compound was so far advanced that it was now available to the public. I thank God Himself that I take pot for recreational rather than medical reasons. I do feel for those in your predicament and get quite angry that such a tool as Cannabis is illegal for those that need it.

 

Your description and contrast between the synthetic and naturally-occurring substance has really set my mind to rest somewhat. If the attempts to synthesise has thus far failed, then I am encouraged. I hold the belief that no matter what the drug (or even foodstuff for that matter), the naturally occuring compound is always more preferrable than the synthetic. To me, most of the medical profession is seething with - and steeped in - pure evil.

 

Good point on the western influence. It is a little known point that the purpose of many international governmental organisations (such as WHO, WTO, IMF, WB, etc) is to develop charters between participating nations such that cause all signatories to that charter to implement and maintain the clauses of these charters to the exclusion of the national good and with no representation nor debate by the individuals in these states.

 

In other words - Aus has signed up to certain international agreements on total prohibition of Cannabis for recreational and medical purposes. We have no say on this and because our government has signed, they are mandated to do these things whether beneficial or not. All signatories are.

 

It's disgusting. You should see some of the international trade practises we must implement and accept because our stoopid consecutive governments (both Libs and ALP) have signed us to these deals.

 

Remember the Crown protests in Melb in the late 90s when the WTO came to town? Aus was signing it's rights away even when most of the population was right outside protesting.

 

Just like they ignore us, we must ignore them

 

Anyhow, I'm ranting so I'll move on.

 

 

Pebbz,

 

There will always be those that don't get it, or refuse to listen to the facts because that would mean everything they were told about it in the past was misconstrued, or just plain old lies. That's alot to deal with for some.

 

Yes I agree. Very much. I go through these moments many times in my life when I find something I truly believed to be completely baseless or very wrong. However I only get these moments because I question things.

 

Some people are not encouraged to question things and we must assist by encouraging them. We are each ambassadors for pot whether we like it or not. Once this breakthrough is attained by people the war is won.

 

However, keep in mind the sheer size of the propaganda machine that 'authorities' have at their disposal. Goebbels would have been jealous.

 

Marrabundi,

 

Thanks for pointing that out champ. It makes sense now.

 

Well let's get this wagon a-movin. MuA, roll on up and pass em round!

Thanks Teucer...er..you do realize that in my first few posts I admitted to correcting pronounciation of newsreaders on TV and even yelling at the boobtoob on occasions?

 

 

I did not realise an attempt to synthesise THC or any other Cannabinoid compound was so far advanced that it was now available to the public.

 

12 years ago it was just at the end of trial stages for the first crude versions...only available in US with docors reccommendation and prescription...I had the good luck to know someone who had a few containers of them left when the trial was finished...and when offered, tried some...

 

Your description and contrast between the synthetic and naturally-occurring substance has really set my mind to rest somewhat. If the attempts to synthesise has thus far failed, then I am encouraged.

 

I have read that there is a new generation of the drug available...different name...refined process...hopefully not so nausiating...perhaps if they brewed it in beer form?

 

Well let's get this wagon a-movin. MuA, roll on up and pass em round!

Through a plume of smoke a burning joint glows red and a voice calls out "I call Shotgun"!

 

 

hehehe...

hey..I'm getting the hang of these quote thingies now...

It seems every time there's a study that finds something wrong with cannabis it is dismissed as propaganda on this site. Every pro cannabis study, however, is hailed as gospel no matter how unscientific it might be. A you tube rant is sometimes presented as evidence. I find both positions equally annoying. I am willing to bet there are some amazing medical uses for cannabis but I'm also willing to concede that there are probably going to be some dangers associated with its use.
