We're practically letting everybody in. Just hitch a ride with some illegals and in 6 months you'll be collecting a welfare check and going to college, asides from smoking some sweet, sweet herbs relatively unmolested by authorities


I can teach yoga, and have no objection to teaching autistic people on cannabis. Failing that I can test computer software but that's too corny!

Is it 99% sure the FBI can't get you in Canada?

No, they sometimes succeed in extradition. The 'Prince of Pot' Mark Emery was extradited from Canada to serve jail time in a US Federal Prison. Whenever our government is led by the Conservative Party they tend to let the Yanks have free reign with our country. I wish they would stop being so interventionist, the rest of the world really hates them for it

Where's the guy that said it's all in the mind?

I keep reading scientific papers that seem to hint that autistic people have differences in their endocannabinoid systems which are addressed with cannabinoids?

It's physical medicine for autistic people, not just 'mind medicine'.

Got any links?

I've personally used cannabis on several occasions and found it to be helpful in relieving some of my symptoms however I've decided not to use it anymore unless I can find a trusted supplier as I don't like mixing with the sort of undesirables that distribute it in my area and it probably isn't even good stuff coming from them anyway. I prefer to vaporise it as I dislike smoking and it is more economical on the weed :P

You forgot the option of:
"No, they shouldn't, but it should be legal for everyone."

As much as I myself dislike pot, I believe people should be allowed to put it in their bodies.

I think it should be legal and treated like alchohol is. I don't do it myself. It gets me extremely horny and with no guy in the picture I just don't see the point as it would just leave me frustrated.

I honestly think it should be legal. It is the one thing I actually like. I hate cigarettes. I think the smell of cigarettes is so disgusting. I used to like alcohol but it doesn't really do anything for me. I mean I will occasionally have a drink but I don't get "drunk" and I think people that drink to get drunk are just stupid. I like marijuana because I get really bad migraines and I have Fibromyalgia as well as Asperger's and my muscles are always aching. Smoking a little weed just makes me not think of the pain I have in my body or something. I am definitely for it. <3

Yes. It should be legal and used for ASD. I'm living proof. It help to get me off the dangerous pills the doctors put me on and live a fairly 'normal' life.

Its also one of my 'special passions' that I put a lot of focus on.

History, botany, horticulture and alchemy of cannabis.

Its the closest thing we have to actual magic on this planet.

I'd rattle on endlessly about it now, but I'm on my android phone posting and its really frustrating. I don't want to meltdown and throw it against the wall. :'(

It should be legalized that way it'll be safer, and not laced with other drugs.

Sometimes the mexican cartels add stuff to the marijuana to add weight to it. They ought to let people grow their own to cut the cartels and dealers prices. If everyone can grow it no one would really be buying from guy they don't know or have to go into the hood to score. Every plant that is grown at home is money out of some drug lord's pocket.
