Wow, I didn't even make it through the first sentence before my BS alarm went off. I wonder if we started to track news articles that mention "skunk" (don't forget the quotes!) how many of them would originate from a common source? It isn't a very common adjective for cannabis (anymore), yet is used in almost every anti-cannabis story I have read recently...

Can somebody pass the tinfoil, please?




I hate the use of skunk too. Nobody fuckin calls it skunk! (very often) It's just propaganda. People associate the word "skunk" usually with something negative, so when they hear it in the newspaper, it makes them think marijuana must be bad.

The only thing bad about "skunk" is that it stinks up my whole fucking house!! haha.

BTW, When did the UK adopt this whole "skunk" thing? Can someone please send the UK Drug Minister some copies of High Times?

It makes them sound so silly.

I usually go running every day, but the effect of the drug on my lungs meant this was no longer possible either, because cannabis compromises lung function three times as much as ordinary cigarettes.




BS, I can run after a smoke.

Yeah, I always murder people when I'm stoned.


So the purpose of this doc was to demonise cannabis to people that don't already smoke it or have tried it.

What a fruitless propaganda attempt.

Unfortunately i was subjected to this unpleasant article this morning. It really is a joke designed at turning as many people against Cannabis by filling peoples heads with false "Scientific facts".

The woman is clearly just another product of the Anti-drugs zero intelligence propaganda machine.

On a side note it really does seem that Britain (my place of residence) is on an anti-mj binge at the moment i find it sickeningly amusing, the ridiculous Talk to Frank adverts...

"Once you lost it on Marijuana that was it"

What i really can't understand is why they're having such a dig at it considering every day i read at least one (usually more) article(s) of alcohol related assault/vandalism and just general unpleasantness.
Why can't they spend their time focusing on substances that actually have fatal/life ruining effects, cigarettes, alcohol, DIEt fizzy drinks.

I guess they don't expect the peaceful stoner to put up much of a fight.

Greetings by the way, long time reader first time poster.
The forum is fantastic, full of so much knowledge and character.

Cheers

Damn.

Not really a good experiment considering she is the only test subject. How about the millions of Britons that smoke strong cannabis on the regular and DON'T become paranoid and depressed.

Annnyway time to smoke a bong before I clean the kitchen and think about how happy and un-paranoid I am. And what a dumb bitch that lady is for embarking on a hardcore smoking binge on her own in a strange city with virtually no experience OR tolerance of weed.



EDIT: Haha oh shit, that docu is on at ten. Gonna watch it even though I know it will just piss me off :grin:
