Endocannabinoids – The Science
Today I’d like to do something Republicans do when confronted with a question. Look at the science. The science I’d like to look at is the science of endocannabinoids. Let’s start with a definition. An endocannabinoid is a marijuana-like substance produced by the body that acts on specific receptors in the body. There are two known cannabinoid receptor systems in the body. They are the CB1 system and the CB2 system.

=================Conservatives Not Receptive to Being Called “Drug Nazis” – Even If They Are
Classical Values » Endocannabinoids – The ScienceRead the article.I did this piece for a major Right Wing site I have written for before. It was rejected for a number of reasons.
1. The punch line “Marijuana” wasn’t mentioned until later in the piece.
2. It was too technical.
3. The evidence is probably accidental correlation.
And most important:
4. The audience would not be receptive generally.
5. The audience would not be receptive to being called Drug Nazis.
Which was in fact an admission that they are Drug Nazis. Because I never said it directly. What I said was my usual:
Medical Marijuana prohibition is a crime against humanity and a violation of the religious precept – heal the sick.
Good thing DP isn’t a “conservative” site. And, as M. Simon points out, the “conservative site” just outed itself.
