First topic message reminder :

Some of the things we read in Quack media groups like the daily mail?...

While some things are true or have at least some credibility, many are not.

The daily mail claims the first person ever has died of overdosing solely on Cannabis from some doctor, now they claim it kills 30,000 a year in the UK!

As we know, cannabis alone can not kill, only if other drugs or alcohol are also consumed, now we have these outrageous claims being made that alkali kills cancer cells...

Where is it going to stop?, it wouldn't surprise me if some gadgie were to claim that drain cleaner could kill cancer, sadly some are taken in by much of this nonsense.
