It provides some pain relief and even just taking over the counter painkillers before a race can provide benefits to performance. I'm totally fine with this since it's applied across the board.

Being in the Olympics is a huge privilege, it doesn't matter if you agree with the rules or not, if you want to compete then you adhere to them.

So does alcohol and that isn't a banned substance. Weed providing pain relief is a dumb reason. It's not like she got high then ran 100m in 10 seconds.

"Marijuana enhances many things: colors, tastes, sensations, but you're certainly not fucking empowered. When you're stoned, you're lucky if you can find your own god damn feet! The only way it's a performance-enhancing drug is if there's a big fucking Hershey bar at the end of the run."

Some athletes, especially in certain endurance and adventure sports, say marijuana use can boost their athletic performance. This may be because of anti-inflammatory or pain-relieving effects that make it easier to push through a long workout or recover from one.

If you have any issues I'm sure the respective international board that ratified banning it definitely would like to hear your input on the matter.

For anyone that only cares about their bias and doesnt actually know or care about whats going on

For a substance to make WADAs prohibited list, it must satisfy at least two of the following three criteria, WADA says:
It represents an actual or potential health risk to the athlete;

It has the potential to enhance or enhances sport performance;

It violates the spirit of sport


1. Athletes who smoke cannabis or Spice in-competition potentially endanger themselves and others because of increased risk taking, slower reaction times and poor executive function or decision making.

2. Based on current animal and human studies as well as on interviews with athletes and information from the field, cannabis can be performance enhancing for some athletes and sports disciplines.

3. Use of illicit drugs that are harmful to health and that may have performance-enhancing properties is not consistent with the athlete as a role model for young people around the world.

Their response to #1 is a generic statement that could be slapped onto just about anything (including alcohol), and their response to #3 is literally based in their bias. #2 is the only one that has a shred of validity to it.

Pretty sure the majority of parents around the world dont want their 7 year olds hearing about the people they look up to doing drugs.

Or they banned it because, and hear me out here, they're dumb and wrong. Wouldn't be the first time. Caffeine and alcohol were also banned substances and now they're not. Whoa.

The hormone pills that some of the athletes take are also drugs. Anyone who is using any type of drug need to be banned as well from competing.

No because God also created war and famine. He created cancer and SIDS. It literally means nothing to cherry pick one singular thing and say its ok because God made it. Well, hes made some fucked up things.
