Default Should I smoke dope(documentary)

It's a tv-documentary on cannabis that I found to be pretty balanced(unlike most portrayals of weed in the media, which is usually completely against or for weed). You can watch it streaming here:

http://www.66stage.com/documentaries.php?pl=goo&url=-7541256134064021623

Its a little slow to start, you might want to skip ahead a little to where she first smokes and gets super stoned. I can relate to that ^^(i smoked half a gram of dank my first time).

Thoughts? Considering all the information in there i'm sure they got some things wrong/right. I'm not really a weed scholar or anything so I don't know the accuracy of some of the stuff they mention.

They IV her with pure thc and a thc+other stuff mix at the end(as part of a gov endorsed study).

elaborate please. Too much propaganda/ lies?
I noticed that some of the stuff is a stretch for sure. But plenty of people that try smoking weed don't have the taste for it, didn't you mention in another thread that your wife finds weed to be a little too intense for her taste?
I know personally I used to have mild to severe paranoia when i first started, (which mostly went away with regular use).

A good portion of it had a propaganda type presentation and spin to it.


The only redeeming point was watching that dumb cunt fucking shit up all stoned.



Of course you aren't going to be able to drive stoned if you JUST started smoking, and had NEVER driven stoned.

My wife won't even leave the house, speaking of her, and her first time with pressed keif was much like that womans first experience, except a bit worse.


I admit it is different for different people, that is really my point. To say that marijuana, or any of its chemicals increase the risk of, or cause "psychosis" is not only an impossibility because everyone is different, but also retarded as fuck, because what IS the definition of psychosis?


To avoid going on a rant regarding the question raised above, I will refer you to this website which gives a good explanation of just how fucked up our current definitions of "mental illness" are:

http://www.antipsychiatry.org/exist.htm


It's all a fucking trick. Don't be fooled.

She took 2 hits of a .1 joint with tobacco and got high.. bull shit If there is 30 hits thats 1/15 x 0.1g = .006 of weed smoked. Bull Shit.

I agree it did bring up the common propaganda, but at the same time it showed how sensationalized some of that shit was, like the headline that said 1 joint could make you go mad.

But they did refute a lot of it. For instance in the driving test, although she did pretty poorly. They did mention/show that that stoned drivers are less dangerous than drunk drivers. Where stoned drivers tend to be more cautious because they are at least aware of how high they are.

I don't mind being in the car of a regular user(or driving high myself). But I would be uneasy getting in the car with someone who smokes every other weekend.

They also showed that weed law is too harsh, like the old lady they threatened to evict.

I agree that they pushed the psychosis thing too much, but they did say that since she had no history or family history of psychosis that she would not get it unless she smoked regularly for years, and even then it only "doubled" the risk.

I have no doubt that some of the claims they made had dubious factual backing. Overall though they seem to agree that its no worse than alcohol, 1 joint wont make you go crazy(as 1 drink wont make you and alcoholic), and that weed can be a lot of fun.

edit: @above me, it was .1g hash, and she seemed to smoke a bit more than 2 hits in the video

It does get confusing. Up here dope is either that clear or that black
