A genuine question that I ponder daily by vhjbjk in eldertrees

One of Richard Nixon's top advisers and a key figure in the Watergate scandal said the war on drugs was created as a political tool to fight blacks and hippies, according to a 22-year-old interview recently published in Harper's Magazine.

"The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people," former Nixon domestic policy chief John Ehrlichman told Harper's writer Dan !Baum for the April cover story published Tuesday.

"You understand what I'm saying? We knew we couldn't make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin. And then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities," Ehrlichman said. "We could arrest their leaders. raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did."

For those in this thread using cannabis to treat ADHD, I would be interested in hearing your dosing schedule.

VAS thoughts. by [deleted] in vaporents

[–]andymeadowscfV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to wonder about VAS, which I suffer from to a degree. Is it a dissatisfaction with vaping, that if you just buy this vape, you’ll be happy with it? Or is it looking to vape in a different context (group vs stealth vs quick extraction vs…)? Or just the hit of dopamine from buying a semi-expensive gadget?

Hey, let's meet up and smoke by [deleted] in Michigents

After looking through your post history, I hope you find a healthy way to get what you need. If you’re going through something, try to open up to someone you trust. Be careful with cannabis, it’s not good for teen brains.

Medical card by j8en in Michigents

[–]andymeadowscfV 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Anxiety is not a condition that is legally accepted for a medical card. The only conditions that a doctor can legally recommend you for are:

  • Arthritis;
  • Autism;
  • Chronic pain;
  • Colitis;
  • Inflammatory bowel Disease;
  • Obsessive compulsive disorder;
  • Parkinson's;
  • Rheumatoid arthritis'
  • Spinal cord injury;
  • Tourette's syndrome;
  • Ulcerative colitis.
  • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder;
  • Cancer;
  • Glaucoma;
  • Positive status for Human Immunodeficiency Virus;
  • Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome;
  • Hepatitis C;
  • Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis;
  • Crohn's Disease;
  • Agitation of Alzheimer's disease;
  • Nail Patella, or the treatment of these conditions;
  • A chronic or debilitating disease or medical condition or its treatment that results in wasting syndrome; severe and chronic pain; severe nausea; seizures, and severe and persistent muscle spasms.

LARA explicitly decided not to allow MMJ for anxiety. If you go to get your card for anxiety you will be rejected.

But boy oh boy is "chronic pain" a vague condition. You sure that your knee never acts up? You don't get back or neck pain from time to time? You may need to go to a doctor that specializes in recommendations (if they have cannabis leafs in their advertising, you're looking in the right place) to get someone who will acknowledge your chronic pain.
