Montel Williams Wants You To Toke Up!

Filed under: TV News > Drugs

For medical reasons, but still.

For years, talk show host Montel Williams has fought back against his Multiple Sclerosis with the help of medical marijuana. Having a firm belief in its benefits, Montel has taken his support of the drug a step further by offering a group opening up a new clinic in Sacramento his help and public stance.

Check out the report (above) to hear how Montel HIGHly recommends the use of marijuana!

      yeah - you posted something very similar about a month ago. recycled, once again.

      Just admit it, you like smoking weed. You are a pothead. You would be smoking weed even if you didn't have ms. You like charring your lungs and frying a ton of brain cells. You think it is cool. It makes you feel all good and mellow, man. There are prescription drugs that are just as effective and probably more so, and not as bad for you if used correctly and not abused. But you can't get that all good and stoned feeling with a little anti-nausea medication and pain medication your doctor prescribes to you at safe levels. No, you want to be stoned, man. Cheech and Chong. Toke it up. Just drop the charade. You're a stoner.

      Re: aLLiEUGA – I don't live in a hole and I'm not an idiot. I know exactly what I am talking about. I'm old and I've been around the block more times than you have taken baby steps, honey. Smoking pot is HORRIBLE for you. It is horrible for your lungs, it is horrible for your brain. But try convincing a stoner of that. You can't. You can't because they love their weed so much they have totally convinced themselves in their stoner minds that it is "just a weed" or "natural". The way they romanticize it is just pitiful. Stoners absolutely love pulling stories out of their grass haze about how pot has never been proven to harm anyone. Smoke much? How about another toke? It most absolutely has been proven over, and over and over again to be very harmful. But again, tell that to a stoner. They'll just pull up their "facts" about how pot has never harmed anyone

      Re: Genghis Khan – I usually agree with you but you sound absurd. Weed is not the devil drug you're making it to be.

      Re: Genghis Khan – Just because you are old does not make you smart. Prescription pills are horrible for your liver and your brain too, as is alcohol. Anything in excess is bad for you, but that does not mean marijuana is as bad as you are making it out to be. Not everyone abuses marijuana, so get over it. More people need to recognize that food kills tons of people. We live in such an obese nation, but people want to complain about how bad marijuana is for you. If more people ate right and exercised they wouldn't need all those prescription drugs you speak of either. If you actually did do some research and really knew what you were talking about you would see there are some benefits of smoking marijuana. Just because someone smokes marijuana does not make them a stoner. Some people are losers regardless if they smoke weed or not. Just like some people can smoke weed and be healthy, as well as successful, because it depends on all your other habits. If you eat right, exercise regularly, don't drink alcohol (or very little) and want to get high on the weekends you are better off then most Americans.

      I've read of so many medical benefits the last while that oppressing the studies data should
      be illegal instead, to ensure the utilization of the verifiable medical benefits of the herb.

      Like everyone else has said, cannabis is not harmful if used appropiately. Of course it can be used in excess and become harmful, just like alcohol, eating fast food, or smoking cigarettes. And buying it can be dangerous because you may not know whether its been mixed with something else or if its pure. Cannabis is currently being researched for its medical qualities, not just for dealing with MS and helping patients keep on weight during chemotherapy but also for its psychological benefits, such as treatment for a strand of depression known as dysthymia. It isn't about 'being stoned;' and it is an effective alternative for analgesics (pain killers), especially for individuals who are allergic to the four strands of painrelievers. So instead of assuming that it's just about getting 'stoned' and reliving the 60s (lol) its also about helping people feel better. Anti-nauseaut medications do not work for everyone, neither do prescription drugs. Cannabis is a good alternative for this.
