Well, first of all, this post is an appeal to emotion. I don't like to join a cause that uses logical fallacies to make their points.

[–]Autodidact420 103ポイント104ポイント  (22子コメント)

Okay, well lets say you started off in a new society. Would you make marijuana illegal? Why?

Making it illegal should have had the burden of proof to show it required its illegal status. When it was first made illegal the reasons were bogus. Sure, that's a genetic fallacy if I say that means that it's obviously true it should be legal, but now I'm asking for legitimate reasoning that it should be illegal and if no case can be made, well... I'm sure you know how that works

[–]nativeofspace 146ポイント147ポイント  (13子コメント)

I would make marijuana illegal because I accidentally put it on a list with far more harmful substances that were also to become illegal. Then, in the future when it was proven marijuana was not harmful, I would continue to prosecute and imprison people who use it Instead of being mature enough to reverse my earlier mistake and admit I was wrong.

[–]BlueNotesBlues 38ポイント39ポイント  (7子コメント)

You would also profit off of the imprisonment of said prosecuted people and because you're only targeting colored folks no one will give a damn for 40 years.

This post is a little dumb, it doesn't answer any questions and only makes it seem like those kids are getting stoned in order to get their treatment. In reality, the oils are made of CBD, which is present in marijuana but is not what gets you high (which is THC). Here's some info on what this means, but basically it means all the benefits of marijuana without the high, making it far more ethical to give to children.

[–]Thought_Felon 14ポイント15ポイント  (1子コメント)

You obviously have never seen the benefits THC can have to a 10 year old going through chemotherapy. As far as ethics, would you not give a child in agony painkillers because it is unethical to give children psychotropic substances? Both CBD and THC have many benefits, but do different things. In fact that is an over simplification even, since there are several types of THC. Look up THC V, it is one of the forms of THC which has only recently started to receive more attention, and actually is seems to behave as a stimulant and hunger suppressant being looked into for possible uses for things such as ADD and depression. This is why we need the freedom to do open non biased cannabinoid research, instead of trial and error leading to anecdotal evidence. While we have come to the conclusion that ingesting the plant is generally safe, there are hundreds of cannabinoids in marijuana and we have no idea what many of them do, but this is why we should be pushing for more research.

[–]p3nguin89 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

More research is coming, and more states are opening their doors and pockets to do so. I speak from experience, as I'm currently a PhD student who is working with a funded study in the State of Florida where we will be giving pharmaceutically controlled CBD to children with drug resistant epilepsy. It doesn't get down to the nitty gritty science of cannabinoids, but it is a huge step towards unbiasedly testing the use of a controlled CBD drug for a very specific medical problem.

Along with this, we are looking to also secure funding for doing exactly what you discuss, which is to better understand all of the cannabinoids and what benefits or harms they can have within various uses.

[–]anonpurpose 13ポイント14ポイント  (10子コメント)

CBD works better with THC. The idea that CBD is medicinal and THC gets you high is bogus. ( I didn't mean to suggest thc doesn't get you high btw)

[–]p3nguin89 14ポイント15ポイント  (9子コメント)

That's one belief, but not an outright fact. You're referring to the "entourage effect" that some scientists think marijuana has, where the combination of the compounds work together for certain effects.

CBD is medicinal and THC does get you high, that's not bogus at all... If you look at pharmaceutical medical marijuana the most common extract is 28:1 CBD to THC, for the this exact reason. My source is that this is quite literally my PhD work.

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't THC responsible for quickening your metabolism, giving people the urge to eat?

[–]Josh6889 6ポイント7ポイント  (9子コメント)

I'm not an expert or anything, but I'm pretty sure that's correct. CBD and THC have uniquely different benefits. If you have a true medical condition that can be treated by medicinal marijuana you really need to do some research and figure out which cannabinoid provides the benefits you desire. Of course, if you enjoy getting high the decision is pretty simple :D Just ingest the plant with your chosen method.

[–]shenanabanana 2ポイント3ポイント  (8子コメント)

Does the cannabis oil also make you high? I feel like a lot of the chemicals are lost this way.

[–]Josh6889 2ポイント3ポイント  (4子コメント)

Oil is not what you need to distinguish. What you need to distinguish is which cannibinoids the product has. Products containing only CBD will not get you high, and they are used in treatments such as seizure protection for young children, although I've seen a bit of research that suggests THC provides a synergistic effect that has benefits as well.

An interesting fact not many people know. CBD treatments are legal in all 50 states, provided a proper prescription. On that note, maybe this meme is an appeal to emotion fallacy. I don't have all the details to say for sure.

tl;dr, CBD does not make you high. THC makes you high. Products exist that contain one, the other, or both.

[–]gonzo650 2ポイント3ポイント  (2子コメント)

Cbd does not get you high, in fact it works in the opposite way somewhat. Most oils you see however are thc based and get you extremely high quite easily. Most of the ones sold at the clubs are 50% thc and 50% vegetable glycol or some other oil that is mostly Judy a suspension for the desired consistency. They can be used in vaporizer easily for those worried about the smoke. Often times depending on your ailments you can have specific combinations of thc and cbd created for the maximum benefits.

No, I don't think it effects your metabolism. I think its your pituitary gland that it effects, and tells your body that you need to eat even if you don't. I can't source right now, but my main reason for thinking this is if weed sped up your metabolism, people wouldn't gain weight from all the munchies they eat, but they do.

only makes it seem like those kids are getting stoned in order to get their treatment.

Really, that's your takeaway? The kids were taking oil from a syringe that purportedly got rid of their seizures. They're not sitting around with bongs and clouds of smoke and bloodshot eyes...."only makes it seem like those kids are getting stoned" is probably the worst description you could've given for this post.

[–]RealitySubsides 3ポイント4ポイント  (1子コメント)

Well I figured that if you're someone who doesn't know anything about the medicinal benefits of marijuana, seeing some kids using marijuana-based oils would make you think they were getting high off of it.

Fair enough, but I am also giving the people of this sub and this cause the opportunity to present their case as well. I never said that this post is garbage and so was the whole movement, only that this isn't the type of material that people should be using to attempt to convince people of the legitimacy of marijuana, whether it be medical or recreational.

[–]Crevvie 12ポイント13ポイント  (0子コメント)

The legitimacy of marijuana as medicine was first proven back in the 70s, which prompted the federal government to grow and supply marijuana joints to patients. so, IMO, there has been adequate evidence for some time. As far as legal use, it has killed no one, it is non-addictive, it is not dangerous. There is no valid reason to have ever made it illegal.

[–]apimpnamedgekko 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Every cause uses logical fallacies to make their points. i.e. Obi-wan telling Anakin "Only the Sith deal in absolutes" is itself, an absolute. Does that make Obi-wan a Sith?

[–]Level126 12ポイント13ポイント  (4子コメント)

Appeal to emotion is not necessarily a logical fallacy...

Imagine if I said:

If gay marriage is legalized the apocalypse will happen

That is a logical fallacy. There's no proven correlation. Not because it makes you fear for your life if it's legalized.

You don't need to say the appeal to emotion would be the logical fallacy. If cannabis cures these diseases it's obviously good regardless of whether there's puppy-dog-faced children in the picture. That's just a way to present an argument.

My main point is that it wasn't in replace of a compelling argument. The fact that it saves children's lives is a compelling argument. The fact it's showing the little children is the appeal to emotion.

[–]Exexexpat 5ポイント6ポイント  (0子コメント)

The appeal to emotion is based on medicinal effects though. It is anecdotal but with the very large amount of anecdotal evidence it should at the very least be seen as evidence that it needs a lot more study which would require it to be reclassified.

Also have you seen the documentary "Weed" by Sanjay Gupta? that has a great deal of evidence within regarding why it should be legalized for medicine at the very least.

As well if you have any concerns regarding legalization please let me know and I can hopefully answer them all, my company is working with medicinal marijuana in research and developing products for those with many illnesses and I've spent a great deal of time discussing legalization so I'd like to think I'm at least fairly knowledgable about it.

[–]samwam 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

I'm certainly pro-cannabis but I agree that appealing to emotion is a horrible way to "convert" people.

Same thing as saying "Don't you care for babies?" in an anti-abortion advertisement.

Of course curing children of horrible afflictions or "saving babies" are good things, but without a frame of reference there is really no true argument to be made.

I can respect that. But it's hard to get a reaction out of the general public without throwing stuff like this in their face. Statistics and facts mean very little to the average person, making legalization a lot harder.

He was highlighting that you talked about the Appeal to Emotion logical fallacy, which many students learn in English class. When you name drop logical fallacies and try to argue strictly logically on the Internet, it is almost impossible to not to seem pretentious or tryhard (not that I'm going to judge you based on 2 comments). Your statement also makes it seem like you're placing yourself above others. I mean really, what organization raises awareness for its causes strictly rationally?

[–]AtmospherE117 3ポイント4ポイント  (3子コメント)

Its an emotional appeal but where is the fallacy?

[–]SlapMyCHOP 4ポイント5ポイント  (1子コメント)

The emotional appeal is the fallacy. It's saying that marijuana has helped these people, therefore it should be allowed for everyone to use. The implication is that if you say no to the question in the post, you become a monster who hates your own kids.

    some of my friends think that medical marijuana equates to fat blunts and smoking joints. Some other friends of mine think that their daily pot smoking is reversing the cancerous effects of smoking cigarettes, and that because of their regular pot use, they are maintaining the absolute best health they could ever achieve. There's still a LOT of misinformation and pseudoscience surrounding marijuana on both sides of the legal/illegal debate, unfortunately.

    [–]CrkdLtrN 3ポイント4ポイント  (2子コメント)

    It still doesn't make sense to keep it illegal when alcohol is far worse for you. This is my main stance on why it should be legal.

    [–]probably__mike 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

    honestly, and please don't take this the wrong way, I'm very pro-legalization, but i think its a very weak argument to say that alcohol is worse for you, so weed should be legal too. You could debunk the argument by making BOTH of them illegal.

    [–]CrkdLtrN 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Yup, I totally agree with you. But since that would never happen, we have to face the fact that it's safer and it's illegal, but why?

    [–]LtYames 12ポイント13ポイント  (6子コメント)

    Lots of rhetoric on both sides. Need good data.

    [–]Exexexpat 4ポイント5ポイント  (2子コメント)

    What kind of data would you like? There have been a number of studies that have shown marijuana oil can be used to slow and sometimes shrink tumours, it has been shown to be very useful for people with MS and many other diseases. IF you are more specific about what exactly it is you would like more data regarding I, or others here will be very happy to supply it.

    Re-education regarding this plant happens one person at a time so this is what is needed. Decades of D.A.R.E. lies need to be shot down and shown to be the fear mongering they truly are.

    [–]p3nguin89 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

    I would say more controlled studies on human participants. The tumor study you mention in particular was specifically performed on mice I believe, which is very remarkable in its own right and of course animal studies are going to help make the greatest advances. But at the end of the day mice/rat =/= humans. And most clinical research groups will knock specifically this. As a researcher in this field myself, I think both are crucial.

    Also, a lot of studies that you read about tend to have very low numbers, especially on the human side, and with varying results. Obviously the miracles it does perform should be noted, but better controlled studies need to be performed. Namely, where the drug itself is controlled and appropriately composed of consistent compounds, a very specific and larger population, and within a clinical setting where bias can be avoided.

    Once you have a large, concrete study to point to, then you can start opening up those clinical doors that carry major funding sources. Legislatures, funding sources, researchers, etc. all want exactly this. I say all of this from my own knowledge as a PhD student who is studying CBD and medical marijuana and working to do exactly this. We currently have a funded study that we hope to use to make a major push forward with pharmaceuticals and specifically CBD.

    [–]lnslnslns 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Data on what specifically?

    As far as medical use, its quite obviously useful as an anesthetic in some cases, useful for some specific medical cases such as these kids with epilepsy, and there is research being done. Personally, I see the drive to find its medical uses mostly as an offshoot of the drive to legalize it for recreational use. Not that this is bad, as it does have uses, but its not like its some wonder drug that a lot of the very pro-pot people like to shout about.

    The biggest reason for legalization is tax revenue, crime reduction, and harm reduction, looking at the end of prohibition for a case study of what will happen.

    I don't know about where you live, but where I live, its easier and cheaper to get weed than it is to get alcohol. The government can apply a "sin tax" on the same basis that it taxes alcohol and tobacco, and won't get villified for the tax increase because "yay legalized pot!".

    Crime reduction is rather obvious, even if it takes time for the black market dealers to get out of the business, it will happen eventually. Black market alcohol didn't disappear with the end of prohibition immediately, but its not a significant source of crime these days (same with black market tobacco). Yes, many criminals will just shift to dealing other goods or other crime, but you basically rip the whole small-time dealer market apart, the guys who are taking advantage of doing a bit of dealing on the side for some easy cash but don't want to go big.

    If you're worried about an increase in pot smoking leading to an increase in cancer and lung disease, then you shouldn't be focused on pot, you should be arguing for more restrictions on cigarette manufacturing, sales, and advertising. If you're worried about increased accessibility to minors, legalizing is either going to be beneficial or reduce use. Everyone still had that older cousin/brother/friend who would buy them alcohol and cigarettes in high school, now they'll just do the pot sales too.

    For me, it's the negative image most "stoners" have given weed. I despise the "dumb, slow, careless" type smokers that sit in parks and drink and smoke all day. I respect its medicinal value but would hate to see weed be acceptable in a workplace because a business couldn't discriminate against a "stoner". But I do feel that its "cool" factor would wear off for teens and hopefully that negative image would slowly dissipate.

    Tl:dr 'stoners' give weed a bad rep, it has its medicinal uses. Not entirely against.

    Glad you came here rather than just making assumptions like some do. Some will tell you that it has tons of medical applications that can help people, which is great and a good argument, but honestly many of us want marijuana to be legal for recreational purposes.

    That's where things get tricky, a huge burden lays on some people's shoulders when they say that. Like, "oh, you just want to get high". Well, yes actually. In the past that's been a huge negative, something that only junkies did and it meant you're a burnout.

    Let's think about it for a minute though. Why is that? We've gathered evidence that marijuana is less to blame by far than its legal intoxicating counterpart, alcohol. Adults in America are not criticized very heavily for drinking on a weekend, becoming intoxicated, and having a good time, so long as they act responsibly (not causing problems, fighting, driving, etc.)

    So one would think that the same would apply to marijuana, but in general it doesn't. There's a negative stigma attached to marijuana; if you drink occasionally you're not an alcoholic, but if you smoke occasionally, some will call you a stoner or a burnout. It simply doesn't make sense.

    Our real argument isn't why it should be legal, but why it shouldn't be illegal. If an adult in America can act responsibly in the comfort of their own home while under the influence of marijuana, what cause is there to say that they shouldn't be able to? Especially when they can do the exact same thing with alcohol, which thus far appears to be a more likely cause of violent crime and intoxicated driving accidents. It's important to realize I'm not saying x is better than y, but rather that if we can have y, then why can we not have x, especially when it's looking like x is less dangerous overall.

    Many will say that marijuana is addictive, and they are right. Many will say that marijuana can lead to other drugs, and they are right. Many will say that you can ruin your life with marijuana, and they are right. What nobody says is that you can do the exact same thing with alcohol, and tobacco shares many of the same attributes, and many health concerns itself.

    We're not a nation that gets by telling people how to live their lives though. Sure marijuana can do all of those things (though addiction or gateway has shown to be very unlikely), but it is up to the person, not the drug. It's choice, not mind control, and America is not the place to take choices away from people simply because you are biased into believing that they can't handle it.

    Marijuana was originally made illegal under ridiculous circumstances, and it has continued to be illegal. It simply makes no sense. It's OK to not support it, its OK to not smoke, its even OK to avoid people who feel differently, that is your right as an American. However what isn't OK is to take those ideas and judgements and force them onto others. Just because this person doesn't like marijuana doesn't mean this other person shouldn't be able to enjoy it. That's what this is really about. The people want something that there is legitimately no reason they shouldn't have, or should be convicted for having, especially given the circumstances with alcohol.

    There's plenty more arguments to be made on plenty of different topics, from economical impact to health implications and advances in medical technology, but I don't think I can cover all that haha, I just wanted to summarize our main idea here on trees. I assure you we're not a bunch of junkies, we simply like to enjoy our recreational drug of choice to enhance our experiences, just like anyone that drinks.

    Edit: Forgot to say for more good and sourced info, check out these awesome documentaries on Netflix. Promise they're not just "legalize it bro" films ;)

    I am subbed here, and I agree with you (obviously about the weed part, but also about the meme part).

    I love that weed culture is so positive and embracing, but I hate that it is biased and relies on 'selling' marijuana as opposed to being open and factual, and accepting that weed is not 100% safe for everyone and every purpose without exception. Sure, you're not gonna die, but if you're predisposed to mental conditions, your experience may be affected. If you smoke it for years and years, your lungs will probably be impacted simply from having something other than straight air in it all the time. There is still research to be done, and I don't think we can put a number on its usefulness for different problems and people until it is.

    This irritates me because when I see photos and read about kids who have chronic seizures, their parents have tried everything and their final option, the only thing that actually works for them is cannabis oil - yet it is illegal, expensive and not readily available - it breaks my fucking heart. I want medical marijuana available to everyone, everywhere. Not because I want to get a MMJ card, not because it will bring us one step closer to legalization, not because it will personally benefit me. My personal desire for legalization is separate to my desire for those poor fucking kids to live healthy, happy lives, and it only makes me sadder knowing that what might help them already exists, they just can't have it.

    And yet whenever I mention the issue, someone is always quick to say 'Yeah, but you just want MMJ around so you can get high easier'. It's almost like my own personal experiences with weed make my opinions weigh less. I live in Australia where marijuana is illegal, period, although I believe they are trialing MMJ in another state. We are not a lax nor progressive nation and I know when MMJ one day becomes available it will be highly controlled. And that's fine, because it doesn't affect me, I won't be lining up for a card. I just want those who need it, to be able to.

    Frankly, as much as I've enjoyed smoking in the past, I would be just fine with it strictly medical. Only if they get the labeling and testing shit sorted out, though. As it is, it's almost impossible to gauge your actual dosage, and the active ingredient ratios (which studies say should be 1:1 or 2:1 CBD:THC for best results) vary wildly even in the same strain. Can you imagine buying a cold medicine and having to check each box for the amount of active ingredients (which may or may not be listed, depending on brand), cut the giant chunk into 12 or more equal doses, and even then having each chunk work different because of how it was mixed? It would be an absolute nightmare! So why are we all just fine with that for the medical marijuana industry? Other than "It's a first step to recreational usage" I mean.

    Also, it's important to note there's a huge difference between Cannabis Oil and CBD Oil. Even in the articles I'm reading about the autistic boy speaking for the first time it's referred to as "Cannabis Oil", "CBD Oil", and "Hemp Oil rich in CBD". CBD does not get you high, and in conjunction with THC will reduce the mental side effects and increase the positive benefits. Unfortunately, CBD heavy strains are not common - out of the 3 medical dispensaries within a ten block radius of my house, only one carries CBD heavy strains consistently, and even then it's only 10% of their menu - the rest is very low CBD and very high THC.

    Granted, I speak from a state where in just a couple days it'll be recreationally legal, and I'm all for that as well. Beyond legitimizing marijuana as an unwinding activity, there's a great budget benefit (both in increased revenue and decreased expenditures) on both state and local levels, crime reduction, and (hopefully) a general "chill the fuck out" in the population. As great as that will be, the quicker it gets out of Schedule I and into a classification that allows studies of the active ingredients and their interactions, the quicker people with cases like these will have access to consistent medication - something that is absolutely vital when planning long-term symptomatic relief.

    I'm not a trees person, in fact I saw this post on r/all and figured I'd browse. If its true that it was just cbd/cbd oil, its legal to purchase (AFAIK) in all 50 states as long as its derived from hemp and sold as a dietary supplement (there may be other stipulations in terms of acceptable THC content). Its even available and sold by amazon. Some websites even sell it in wax form for (probably unofficially) dabbing and you legitimately purchase it in a non medical state.

    The reason I bring it up is I've used it for muscle pain occasionally as an eliquid.

    [–]sickhippie 2ポイント3ポイント  (4子コメント)

    That's why shitty reporting is so infuriating. I still don't know if it's just CBD oil, and I've read 6 articles about the autistic boy now. CBD oil is absolutely amazing for muscle and nerve pain (and mixes well with FlavorWest's Extreme Ice, FYI), and I'd bet a lot of money that most people don't know the legal status of CBD oil - including police and CPS. Calling it "cannabis oil" further drives a wedge in, making it synonymous with marijuana in people's minds, even when it's zero THC.

    Edit: also, outside of medical states, it's apparently stupidly expensive.

    That's all well and good, but I don't think we should confuse the recreational argument with the medical argument, or try to piggy-back one on top of the other. They're both strong enough that we can argue for each separately, that way the medical community won't be bogged down with people who game the system for recreational use and the recreational users will finally be able to buy weed honestly and openly

    I personally would like to get away from the medical aspect of pot as an argument for legalization. Morphine has great medical uses, and feels great, but it's regulated and not legal for recreational use. Sure, pot is less dangerous, but "it helps people who are sick" doesn't help me get high for fun without getting arrested.

    You're right, but also missing the point. In terms of medical use, if a substance has the potential to help people, it should be legal. If it also has sufficient the potential to hurt people, it should be controlled. This is how all prescription drugs work.

    By showing that marijuana can hurt people, opponents of medical legalization aren't actually making a sufficient argument against medical legalization. Conversely, showing that marijuana can help people is a sufficient argument for legalization.

    You shouldn't use the medical properties of marijuana for an excuse to carelessly use it, especially if you are a child. When doctors use marijuana for medical purposes it goes through special processes to extract only the necessary chemicals that will benefit the patient. It is not the same as simply smoking it. When children smoke marijuana it can slow or stunt their brain growth.

    We have to make sure to remember that it's actually the extracted CBD that has helped, and continues to help these children with their symptoms, and not a wildly potent dose of THC. Their parents are not supplying their children with the same "cannabis oil" that most of us here have become familiar with, but rather an extract of the oil which has removed almost all of the THC out of the medicine.

    CBD provides all of the great medicinal qualities without any of the classic narcotic/hallucinogenic/happy/sleepy/high feelings. :)

    Saying they're just giving their children "cannabis oil" is not only wrong, it's false advertising and it's propaganda.

    This is a pretty terrible argument though. We use morphine all the time for medical purposes but that doesn't mean that everyone is shouting to get it legalised. There is a large difference between usage of drugs for recreation and usage of drugs for medicinal purposes, so to claim it should be legalised recreationally because it is helpful medically is a very unconvincing argument.

    Hey guys, just popping from r/all.

    I just wanted to share my personal opinion, which some of you may agree with but i feel most of you will disagree with.

    I see nothing wrong with using Marijuana as a medicine. In fact, if something is medical, I see no reason not to use it.

    However, for myself, I am very against anything that messes with my head, even if it is just a high, (I avoid caffeine and excess sugars for the same reason).

    As for other people, I believe, as long as there are laws regulating the operation of vehicles while your mind is disoriented, then I don't really care what you do.

    I have seen quite a few posts on here of people driving while high and making jokes about how they didn't know how they showed up at Burger King, when they wanted Wendys or something along those lines. That to me shows your attention is not on the road.

    Once again this is my personal opinion. I just wanted to show that people are not either for or against it, there is quite a bit of gray in there.

    Peace, have a good one guys.

    I don't use marijuana nor am I subscribed to this subreddit, but I personally feel that marijuana should be legalized with some regulation. It's ridiculous that folks are being hit with massive fines or face incarceration for possessing a little amount of pot. However, I don't think it should be smoked anywhere other than your own home (YOUR house, not your apartment that you rent...that shit stinks and lingers) and it should be like alcohol where you can't possess any pot or be under the influence while driving, or while on the job. But let's be real here - I'm sure most members on this sub couldn't care less if cannabis oil helps treat various medical problems. You just want it legalized so you get high whenever you want.
