nope I'm answered your question I'm just following up Pall argument and you said the government is at fault corrupting freedom having rights is freedom but having the right is been corrupt by the government from your argument so anythings has the right therefore they have freedom so if they have freedom the goverment was the sole villain to the rights of the individual as your argument that the goverment corrupt freedom therefore if a individual choose what he thinks is right and something happen to him/her who is at fault the goverment or the individual who choose what is rights or the freedom itself?
and still you didn't answer my question
and I'm asking what happen why they ban it if it produces something good and have a medical benefit? somethings crazy happen can you educate me
@Fermina miss namin yung ganito madalang lang kami nakakita ng ganito heheheh
@smitty the problem is the effect of MJ is instant and it produces bad trip and a good trip. There is no question of medical benefits but Pinoy are abusive and undisciplined people. I heard some Doctors prescribed Morphine and yet they inject themselves i dont know if they exist and reported in a news agency that some was arrested selling it to a black market their modus they prescribed Regulated pain killer then they just hide it and write to the patient chart that they given it already. In case of MJ if legalized they prescribe it and change it to a normal tobacco viola plecebo effect and the doctors get high and the patient pays for it
unlike tobacco and alcohol takes time to die unless you drink 5-10 cases of beer or 5 keg or 1 bottle of gin bilog and you add ecstasy the recipe for a road accident
1. Please make it concise, its almost impossible to get the gist of your counter argument.... you never implied or directly answered my fundamental question of principle, who owns your body? It is quite a very simple question and yet you are pettyfogging the issue..... it's a fundamental question because it would the basis of the principles revolving rights and the role of government in a society.... anyway, if the individual harms himself, he has himself to blame. However, the government seems to believe that regulating behavior on its citizens is a good one-size fits all approach in solving these type of issues... It never has been effective.... I suggest you expand your mentality by reading about the nature of LAW, Natural and Inalienable Rights, and Civil Liberties....
2.There was an international organization that met between 1910-1930's, forgot the exact date... They were banning substances that are considered illegal drugs.... Egypt put MJ into the list at the last minute, and it has been considered dangerous drug ever since, even though there was no scientific investigation being done. That started the drug war against MJ, medicines containing MJ before that period were slowly being regulated, then banned, then outlawed... Millions of hectares of MJ farmlands in the US were slowly being destroyed....it cost them thousands of jobs, and lost several industries... in recent years, MJ has been scrutinized repeatedly by Medical Science, and prove to have MANY medicinal values, and no direct link between MJ and many diseases which presumably it can cause... On the contrary, MJ improved the conditions of people having Lung Cancer, Parkinson's disease, Multiple Sclerosis, and Glaucoma. People using MJ can get high, but MJ has a very low addicting potential, even if smoked everyday for 1 year, they can quit the next day easy.... of course that is an exaggerated example because MJ users usually do it only 1x - 3x a month....
If the basis of its prohibtion is because of its adverse effects to human mind and body, tobacco and alcohol far surpasses MJ in this department... A MJ smoker who is stoned is in a state of euphoria, happy people don't do crimes...lol it puts them in a state of relaxation, and in a higher level of mental function. The reasons why it is prohibited is getting smaller and smaller, only its stigma remains...
For our country, it would be a great economic booster for us since the country is a good place for growing Cannabis. Let's regulate it first, Cannabis Sativa and Indica, two potent varieties of Cannabis. But we must set Cannabis ruderalis, "industrialized hemp" free from regulation and engage heavy industry, we can generate millions of jobs, and promote green revolution at the same time. It can be made into BIOFUEL, DEGRADABLE PLASTIC, CO2 absorbent Construction supplies which hardens as the years go by and decreased free CO2 in the atmosphere and decrease deforestation, it can be refined to replace cotton for clothes, papers, etc.... Outside the medical effects, Cannabis benefits the society in a great measure, only if the people are open to discover its full effects, negative and postive...
It is sad that because of its prohibtion, most people cannot even engage in a decent conversation regarding its potential for other uses because of the stigma placed on it 70 years ago... Prohibtion leads to non-discussion, non-discussion leads to non-discovery.... For more info, google about it...
Integrating my issues regarding natural rights and cannabis, i defend Cannabis use not because solely of its positive effects, but more on the defense of the ability to do my own judgement on my own body. The interference of government is a grave violation of my personal space... I am not an MJ user, nor a smoker...nor a heavy alcohol drinker... But i stand against government if they try to prohibit you from smoking, from drinking, etc...
*The prohibtion of alcohol in US caused so much damage than the alchol effects themselves, leading to its legalization...The same thing will happen to MJ and other drugs, when public funds runs dry.. *
