Medical Marijuana Dispensaries in Denver

Medical Marijuana, Bubble Hash, and Denver Dispensaries

It was a long time coming but tow states have finally legalized marijuana. Dispensaries have already popped up in Denver, where people can purchase bubble hash legally. This all may appear revolutionary, but marijuana has a long history.

The decision to legalize marijuana may seem controversial, but marijuana has been used for centuries. The medicinal benefits of marijuana were first discovered by the Chinese. The first mention of marijuana was a reference made by Emperor Fu Hsi in 2900 B.C. He stated that Ma, the Chinese word for Cannabis, possessed both yin and yang. The Chinese continued using medicinal marijuana for thousands of years though no one knows whether or dispensaries existed in ancient China. From there, it spread to Egypt, where it was used as a pain reliever for people with hemorrhoids. Then there are the claims that Jesus' anointing oil was made with cannabis.

It would take another 2000 years before European settlers brought marijuana to the Americas. Famously, George Washington planted hemp and according to records, he was particularly interested in marijuana's medicinal uses.

It wasn't until the 20th century that the drug became known for recreational use. Controversy soon followed and politicians acted with force. The decades long war on drugs began. It took decades for medicinal marijuana to be used again. Of course, dispensaries in California became ubiquitous. Also, these days there are non-medical marijuana dispensaries throughout Denver.
