Legalizing Marijuana a Danger to Public Health?

There are good reasons why certain drugs have been made illegal, but could some of these drugs have potential medicinal benefits? Cristen Conger from Stuff M…

Ecstasy can help people with depression, but it can also make it way worse
if you abuse the drug, but that goes for most things I guess
I am addicted to krokodil. The high outweigh the cons.
legalize it, regulate it to ensure a drugs purity and volume to prevent
overdose, and tax it, plus handle abusers separate from criminals, instead
sending them to addiction treatment and rehab versus prison. and you will
have a lot of extra cash in Canada at least, to spend on things like
hospitals and schools.
There are also a shit load of side effects that aren’t pleasant eg,
suicidal tendencies, heart failure that come with ‘prescription medication’
HA
Now on the video of 5 Legal drugs that are fucking terrible. All the SSRI
antidepressants that increase suicidal ideation. And doctors prescribe
these like fucking candy!
i only get anxiety when i smoke pot so not sure what they are talkin
about!! And i think the only reason u are not anxious when u take asid is
cuz your mind is obviously gonna be on other things!
while I’m posting this, there are 420 comments on this video lol
First of all I do not care to try any of those, I don’t need medication & I
don’t want to get high. Second IMO it should all be legal, even for
recreational use. Third banning something for the sake of protecting
people from it isn’t protecting them from it, it is an attempt to protect
people from themselves. Does anyone honestly want to live in a society
where your freedom is restricted or even totally rescinded because the
government says that you can’t be trusted not to harm yourself?
Fuck u guys! Still to see an unbiased informative video on anything from
you, always using inconclusive “studies”, to prove points that has nothing
to do with it in the first place.
You Need To Gain Weight ..Cute Face that Needs The Body a To ago With It.

all in moderation…
Coming from someone who has had a incredibly detrimental trip on LSD,
resulting in two months of in-patient therapy in a psychiatric ward, I
would not go as far as saying LSD, or nearly any other chemically
manufactured psychoactive drug for that matter, is “medicinal”. They may
have some medicinal properties, but calling them dangerous and harmful
still holds just as much as water as calling them medicinal. They’re just
drugs. Maybe a little medicinal, maybe a little harmful. But for me, I had
over a dozen trips prior to that final and awful one and all I can say is
that stuff can be extremely spiritually and cognitional toxic. Just my two
cents
I have anxiety but I refuse to take drugs for it. :/
This girl needs to lose those glasses…
lol
“tripping”
Maybe but only for special circumstances
The idea that pot and mushrooms are somehow more damaging to the human body
than alcohol is just stupid. Even if you don’t have any desire to take them
there’s no reason why they’re illegal. Those restrictions came from
lawmakers who saw non-whites as second-class human beings. How anyone can
take them seriously is beyond me.
Some studies have shown that marijauna is helpful not just when smoked but
also when you juice the fresh leaves. You don’t get high from the juice and
it eases symptoms from a laundry list of health issues. I don’t want to
smoke it, I like my lungs just the way they are, but taking it either way
could make huge changes in my quality of life.
Too much regulation is never a good thing. Some drugs like MDA and shrooms
should be legal under prescription only while something like weed should be
allowed as recreational as well.
5th? Why am I even playing this game?
Irrelevant. The government has no right to prevent you from consuming what
you want.
I think weed, shrooms, DMT, peyote, ibogaine, etc are good. Basically
anything that is natural.
People need to understand the word “medical” and remember that you only
need medical items if you are sick or need them because you have health
issues
I can’t even concentrate on this video… That girl gets too sidetracked
Everytime I take LSD, I can not stop smiling, Its happy galore.
Everything on this planet is here for a reason maybe the cure for cancer or
aids lies within the boundary of being illegal?
Drugs are good, m’kay? So, do drugs because drugs make you feel good,
m’kay?
I’ve had worse side effects from drugs my doctor has given me than illegal
ones.
our legal system is the most immoral thing I’ve ever seen >.>
Dang, we said psilocybin simultaneously.
Yes, we do get your joke Cristen.
LSD is good for several reasons.
What are the negative side effects of weed? You kinda left us on a
cliffhanger there…
I believe that all of the “drug” related substances should be legal for
medicinal research, under close supervision of course. Except for like
Heroin and Meth and drugs like that. Obviously there are no medicinal
benefits to be had there.
“hence them being classified…” ha! The reason drugs are classified as
controlled substances has nothing to do with the side effects. A lot of
drugs are illegal because of stigma and racism (opiates because of racism
against chinese marijuana because racism against mexicans) And later the
drugs were further criminalized because nixon needed a distraction from the
vietnam war. LSD made it onto the list because it supposedly killed people,
which was of course not true but it was banned anyways because who needs
facts when you have bureaucracy. You can get much worse drugs prescribed by
your doctor if you complain about headaches or back aches enough.
Damn Cristen… looking good. Professor Boyfriend is one lucky dood 😉 And
totally these drugs have massive benefits. I think it is highly suspicious
why so many readily available easily grown and produced drugs with clear
medicinal properties are illegal. It’s almost like the pharmaceutical
industry had some lobbying influence or something…
there is always something good and bad about drugs. As long as you are over
18 or considered an adult and you are informed about the benefits and side
effects on drugs the government should piss off and get out of our lives.
Everything in moderation
Ayahuascaaaaaaaa !!! Im peruvian fyI haha #really
Wow! No Shit! Who knew a dissociative drug (LSD) could disassociate
yourself from your world, and your mortality. Wow. GROUNDBREAKING! All
these drugs should be legal. We have tobacco and alcohol, both of which are
highly addictive, and have NO medical benefits – LEGAL – But yet all these
“illegal” drugs have tons of medicinal benefits, yet – ILLEGAL. Fucking
feds.
Nice segment, I was hoping to hear something about ibogaine though.
would you take a candy that made you immortal, but killed you the next day?
Awesome opening pun.
And so the Brave New World begins…
I use Psilocybin for my cluster headaches works like a charm they should
defiantly be decriminalized and taken under controlled lab setting.
Cristen, are you going to be a permanent addition to DNews? ‘Cause I would
like that!
The negative side affects if weed is like loss if Brain cells after abusive
use of it right?
I am personally against legalization of all drugs however, I do see where
other people are coming from when they say that regulating them like
alcohol and tobacco would be the way to go for any substance thus, the
underground drug market would be defunded, tainted drugs(any drug that is
laced with other potentially harmful chemicals) would become much less
common and regulations would make sure the harder drugs like heroin are
restricted to safe levels.
I feel that drugs like heroin, krokodil, and cocaine need to be highly
regulated or they should remain illegal simply because of the dangers of
taking them. Drugs like weed, LSD, shrooms, and DMT I feel should be
totally legalized for recreational use and treated the same as tobacco and
alcohol by regulators.
In my honest opinion, if America legalized and regulated these drugs , it
would jump start the economy, lower crime rates, and potentially promote
peace.
Idk if there ‘good’ but the legal ones are for sure NOT good, they’re
actually pretty bad and kill thousands.
