    Cannabis actually does treat seizures, pain, muscle spasms and the list goes on. Go fucking give people shit for taking their antidepressants and seizure medications. It’s the same difference.

        Who said anything about that. Fact is, alcohol is never prescribed to treat seizures or depression or literally anything chronically and it’s poison. You can’t compare the two and the whole demonization of cannabis is just as much bullshit as the fact that most people can’t afford to even see a doctor to get diagnosed or prescribed in the first place. It’s all a big crock of shit.

          It doesn’t matter if a drug is prescribed sometimes. Both amphetamines and opioids are prescribed sometimes. But watch out kids - the amphetamines and opioids sold by the nice guy at the street corner are very bad. If you got marijuana prescribed - that’s cool, take it as prescribed. If you didn’t get it prescribed - it’s a drug like any other.

          Alcohol is also bad.

            Yeah that’s kind of true. You have to be careful. I think it’s telling that the Germans rejected Oxy because it’s basically just heroin with extra steps, but then allowed cannabis.
