WE NEED A TEST GROUP OF US ULCERATIVE COLITIS PEOPLE/ MARIJUANA

Is it true that it doesn't actually bring on remission? I'm also solidly against it for recreational use but need to keep a very open mind regarding UC treatments... was considering it, but if the best it can do is ease my symptoms a bit and not get me into remission, then it's not worth breaking the law and my moral principles.

If mj helps with someone's symptoms and they choose to use it for that then more power to them; I don't judge. I'm from the liberal new england states, and there are many cities here making posession of small amounts legal, moving medical mj ballot initiatives, bills moving through state government, and there's often something in the news about it. I think legalization will be forthcoming in all states in the coming years; it's not a matter of if, but rather of when. The morality issue is pretty lame and I think irrelevant, except for those who wish to prove they are "holier than though" lol. As some drink, others smoke cigs, some mj, whatever, nobody is without something unless you're a nun or something; live a little. Anything is fine in moderation and those that overdue any of those things are all equal. Me, I'm a beer guy and I think I'll get a cold one from the fridge haha.

Wow this thread really degraded.

Are you solidly for drinking alcohol at numerous bars and then driving home because that is the alternative when you prohibit grass.

How about the violence that comes along with alcohol ?

How about the chaos and uncertainty ?

I had a house guest last weekend that drank an entire bottle of vodka and stopped making sense irritated everyone and create concern he might attempt to cook and burn the house down. Since the neighbor girl has started experimenting with alcohol I felt it was a great lesson for her and my daughter both when he lost the ability to balance himself falling here then there and repeating himself. Super smart guy could not even formulate a thought or a sentence.

Never seen grass do that to people.

I don't think very much of your 'moral principles'.

Wow that was a bit uncalled for :( just so you know I'm very very anti alcohol as well, why did you just presume I was one of those hypocrites who despise MJ but think alcohol is fine? :( in fact I wholeheartedly agree that MJ is safer. I actually really want it legalised but that doesn't mean I have to agree with it. For example I would never ever have an abortion but I think it's sick to refuse the option to other women. I don't judge people who take mj, but FOR ME I am against anything that alters my mind purely for recreational purposes. I would rather not have to do that but I'm trying to find out if it would help my UC.

I think that was really unfair to use alcohol as a counter example when you were just presuming to know my views on it or why I'm against MJ.
