Compare marijuana to a chocolate fruitcake. The cake, like marijuana, contains many ingredients, i.e., eggs, flour, sugar, salt, fruit, nuts, leavening, and cocoa. The cocoa is to the cake what THC is to marijuana. However, to a diabetic, or someone allergic to nuts or flour or eggs, there are likely to be some very bad reactions to eating the cake. Using the word “cocoa” interchangeably with the word “cake” is incorrect, misleading, and confusing. However, that is what is being done with THC and marijuana. THC is no more marijuana than cocoa is a chocolate cake.

It’s 2AM, and I am reading D.A.R.E.’s website. you know, that government subsidized group that gave us free pencils in 5th grade?

This quote was taken from a paragraph attempting to distinguish medical marijuana from “FDA approved synthetic drugs.” I enjoyed the fact that the only negative symptom they listed is “may impair short-term memory while people are using the drug.” haha.

So this completely idiotic analogy is suppose to educate my child on drug use, and to deter them from future use? All I can make sense of it is that a diabetic can die from eating a chocolate cake, but can’t die from smoking marijuana.

I’M SO CONFUSED.

The above explanation of thc:marijuana might make more sense to me if it was posted on highdeas.
