Brain Damage?

There are actually studies that says weed kills cancer cells or prohibits the growth of new ones, I can't find the article right now. Years ago, my brother never touched weed in his life until he got cancer. Then we toked up every day. Something that can make a sick person feel that much better, should be legal in my book.

While not actively killing cancer cells, this article does discuss the psychotropic component (D9-THC) of pot acting as a regulator (negative feedback mechanism) on the enzyme that initiates the metabolism of carcinogens from the tar found in both pot & tobacco smoke. It had always been understood that pot had more tar in its smoke and was therefore more carcinogenic than tobacco smoke. It still does, and still is, but the study provides evidence that the D9-THC acts as a regulator on that enzyme therefore reducing carcinogens and ultimately, the risk of cancer.
In the present study, tar extracts were prepared from
marijuana and tobacco cigarettes, analyzed for their composition,
and evaluated for their ability to induce CYP1A1
messenger RNA (mRNA) and enzymatic activity. Marijuana
tar induced greater levels of CYP1A1 mRNA than
similar amounts of tobacco tar. We found that
D9-tetrahydrocannabinol (D9-THC), the psychotropic component of
marijuana, was responsible for this extra induction and
that D 9-THC acted as an independent regulator of CYP1A1.
If you're worried about the smoke/tar, buy & use a vaporizer. A fantastic little toy courtesy of your local college chemistry department.

Everything in moderation boys, but if something is illegal then it is wrong.
The only thing I am pointing out is the effects that Alcohol & Drugs have on the brain. If you want to become Rain Man help yourself, just dont go to work or drive while useing.
Here is your PSA
PSA for Pot Heads you will like this one.
So there is only one question to ask, Are You a Pot Head Focker?

Cut to the real issue here.
Alcohol is okay. MJ is not.
MJ contributes to global warming, as does regular cigarrette smoking.
For each mj cig. smoked, a tiny iceberg melts.
Liberals are -so- hypocritical.....

Then you ARE for us keeping a bunch of guns then? Cool.
It's okay to gather in a public place and protest after all? Great.
Nice that we got this settled.

The first sentence is debatable with your behavior in here (drunken tirades, etc.). And you are specifically the type of personality that should not be able to smoke dope or any drug. You have a personality disorder of some type dude.
