MARIJUANA USE DEBATED

"All drugs are harmful." Really? Science and history indicate that,
even when smoked, the benefits of marijuana use far outweigh the
so-called "dangers."

Marijuana has never killed anyone, and is a proven treatment for
conditions such as HIV/AIDS, morning sickness, ADD/ADHD, migraines,
nausea, anorexia, arthritis, cachexia, Crohn's, epilepsy, glaucoma,
multiple sclerosis, gout, chronic pain, high blood pressure, diabetes,
spasticity, and Parkinson's.

New science shows how cannabis blocks a protein that causes
Alzheimer's and recent science out of Germany shows how cannabinoids
stimulate the body's production of TIMP-1, which helps healthy cells
resist cancer invasion.

For those keen on teaching kids about drugs without all the hyperbole,
slogans, bullying, and bald-faced lies of the "standard" education
programs, I recommend the Canadian Students for Sensible Drug Policy
website or the Educators For Sensible Drug Policy websites.
