very true, when I think MJ tattoo, I'm not thinking a budshot. I don't know what I would decide on as far as a tattoo goes, I would probably look into some deep science and find some cool figure of a cannabinoid binding to a cancer cell (recession) or something kinda deep like that.

THANK YOU! Someone who get's it. MJ is much deeper than the physical plant. It's much deeper than just the action of "Smoking something". You want people to be intrigued by something, and after you explain it it they leave with a alternative viewpoint. One of those "I didn't think of it that way" kind of moments.

IF i were to get some tattoo that was mj related i wouldn't want something cliche like a leaf. I'd probably got with the chemical make up of thc. something simple and yet unless you know what it means (or a chemist) you probably wouldn't figure it out.
its amazing how after you learn chemistry and apply it to marijuana, to me, after I learned the chemical significance of marijuana it totally changed the plant for me, I don't even think of it the same. I seriously think of it as one of the best things to ever happen to this world.

just the way cancer cells express CB2 receptors and cannabinoids bind to them to elegantly stop blood vessels from forming in the tumor and many other operations the tumor needs to survive.

and it does all this with no negative side effects without damaging any surrounding cells. in fact, THC couldn't possibly damage any cells next to it as it is an antioxidant(though someone will have to correct me here I don't know if antioxidants can be bad or not but as far as I know they're not.)


and then there is a ridiculous amount of unsolvable diseases that weed currently is a lasting cure for. or a lasting prevention.

it's just simply amazing.

hell yeah man, the chemistry behind marijuana is as elegant as it gets man. its as beautiful as nature to me, and the more I understand the more beautiful it appears.

See and I can look at you, and your enthusiasm and tell you love MJ. Not just for the ways it makes you feel, but how it works. Why it's good for you. Why is effects us a certain way. That's real love and desire. The thirst to know more. The thirst to find ways of preserving your relationship.

I try to share these feelings with whoever I can. I believe if more people viewed the plant in this way it would be accepted in a heartbeat.

plus I have enough scientific proof for myself to debate with literally /any/ anti-weed person, not that that's all about but it's useful to be able to get your point across with science.

at first it was all about proving people wrong, but after I found out it could cure cancer it became more of a personal vendetta to get people to realize this is more than just a drug here, this is a super-cure, an elegant plant that exists for us to use. a truly reusable and efficient plant for medical and industrial uses.

it's seriously /perfect/ for us.

Well you've just explained why it will never be legal. Too much money at stake. The Medical industry wants you to work your whole life to fund that last few years. The average MJ user spends and average of 215 less on medical visits and prescriptions annually. Now with my co-pay. That would take care of 4 annual visits and prescribed medications. I hadnt' been to the doctor for 5 years prior to last year. No flu shots, no injuries, no serious illnesses (Flu, pneumonia, other infections) and you and I both know why that is.

the sad truth.

either way, someone isn't going to get what they want, but we both know who that /should/ be . . .

Yes sir. But when one industry dies off another takes it's place. Legalization would still allow people to purge gov't dollars for various types of "Research", and not to mention. The Lighting industry would boom. Electricians would be in high demand. Carpenters, designers would find work in grow room design and construction. Gardening suppliers would have to increase medium,nutrient and potting inventories for the new demand. Spas/resorts catering toward the marijuana enthusiast. ETC...ETC... the sky is the limit.
