The active ingredient in weed is THC. In our brains there a small part that is paticularly receptive to THC. So why is that there? One could argue we were designed to be affected by weed.
Anyway, it seems some people around here are forgetting that weed actually has some proven medcinal purposes. For example, people undergoing Chemoetherapy treatment for cancer suffer from extreme nausea which makes eating difficult. A well known side-effect of weed is the munchies - hence why a lot of people undergoing this treatment are advised to use weed to fight the loss of appetite.
A lot of sufferers of MS also find great relief from their trauma through weed.
And Suzuki, before you spout on about how weed is more harmful than cigarettes, maybe you should be aware that you don't have to smoke weed - there are alternative methods for getting stoned.
