I need no assistance craving pizza rolls. none at all. combination pizza rolls are so amazing. I used to able to polish off a whole bag. If only my metabolism could still keep up with those terrible habits lol
Not to get high. These apps specifically cite in the description they know the "high time" for different types of weed. They're clearly not for medicinal purposes.
I honestly don't care about porn in the app store. I care about Apple filtering some things while ignoring others. Id rather have my child watching hours of porn every day than having access to pictures and descriptions of drugs.
No - it's kind of just ****ing stupid, and not something I want my children to have access too. If you want info for yourself about getting high, google it. Theres no reason for it to be popping up on my phone.
No. Someone who thinks that knowledge about a PLANT is somehow worse than watching hours of pornography is severely misguided.
Yeah, a plant that causes serious medical problems. Anyway. That's not the point. The point is apple allows something illegal but bans something illegal (mostly).
Youd seriously rather your kids watch a bunch of porn than see a picture of a plant. A PLANT, mind you, that had over 19,000 published studies that prove its medical benifits. A PLANT that is less harmful than the bud lights and millers that are depicted constantly in the media that your children see everyday. Causes serious medical problems? Wow...
This type of ignorance makes me sick. You really should educate yourself.
As for the original topic, there isn't porn on the app store because it could be potentially harmful if viewed by young developing minds. Seeing a picture of a cannabis plant is not. Regardless of what society has pounded into your closed mind your whole life..

Source? Please, one single reputable source.
Marijuana is not illegal everywhere and pornography is not legal everywhere. Just because you have a skewed sense of right and wrong doesn't mean Apple should too.
Steve Jobs is a stoner. Can just see it
LOL... ya know???
= (dont wanna show them the red eyes)I live in a state that allows medical marijuana. I know several people who have their "green card" as they're called in Oregon.
Tell me, if the purpose of medical marijuana is not to get high, what exactly are you thinking these people are doing with it? I'm honestly curious. Because all the people I know with a legitimate license to posses it for medical reasons buy / grow the same thing the stoners buy / grow. And they use it the same way too. So I'm truly curious to know what they're supposed to do with their buds if the intention isn't to get high.
I know these apps exist on the App Store. Never checked one out myself. But if I needed it for medical purposes, I'd be thrilled to have some apps available to me to educate me on the topic.
I'd also like to re-iterate what a previous poster asked. Can you provide just one single credible source that talks about the "serious medical problems" caused by marijuana use?
Finally, you could try doing what I do with my children (8 & 13). Monitor what apps that have. I'm not a perfect parent. But I'd rather do my best than let Apple do my job for me. They should provide the App Store. I should be the one deciding which of those apps end up on their devices. And while as parents it's only logical that we'll have different rules and values for our children, I'm certainly not bothered by the fact that my kids might find out that such apps are available. I'd welcome their questions on the topic in fact. It would be a great and natural conversation starter on the subject.
But that's just my opinion. If this truly bothers you, you should contact Apple directly. Because asking here obviously isn't achieving the desired result (I'm assuming you had hoped for more outrage).
I fully support that marijuana should be legalized for recreational use, or decriminalized, just as alcohol is now. But marijuana just like cigarettes can cause cancer in your lungs, mouth, and throat no differently than alcohol and the stomach and liver or STDs and frequent sex with multiple partners.
I understand it has positive effects but do not kid yourself that it can have effects and even serious effects on your mental capabilities and your body.
