Not this sh*t again...
Booze is a much bigger killer, sorry.
Bkmk.
I don’t smoke, but I am thinking this is going to be entertaining.
Janitor’s view, indeed!
So how did murder rates and highway fatality rates manage to plunge in the last 20 years, while at the same time, marijuana laws dramatically eased nationwide?
People make choices.
People make bad choices.
Marijuana is a choice.
It does not kill anybody.
People’s bad choices do.......
Bit of a stretch
“Sometime the person who dies was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time.”
That pretty much sums up how we all die.
Why are our federal narcotics laws not enforced? This is madness.
That is the violence of the black market. Caused from making pot illegal. You idiot drug warriors never acknowledge the black market violence your approach creates. We don't have drive-by shootings in front of liquor stores. We did during Prohibition.
In Denver a couple of years ago, an enterprising girl scout sold out her cookies in front of a pot dispensary. Neither her nor her mom feared violence since that was a legal enterprise. Learn from that, pinhead.
You must hate alcohol since it’s killed and maimed more people, destroyed more families than cannabis by a series of magnitudes.
I do have experience in how it changes people.
Years ago I worked nights and I would watch my nephew.
He smiled the biggest smiles and we had a great time together. He was fun to be with and we were best friends.
When he became a teen, he started smoking pot and continued to do so in college.
He's not that happy little boy anymore.
He became distant, uncaring, and cynical.
Whereas we used to have great fun talking, our 'conversations' amount to, 'I dunno. I don't care'.
Mind you he's doing well for himself. Steady job, a girlfriend but he's different.
Yes, there are other factors to consider (friends who smoked pot, high school and college indoctrination) but I will always believe it was pot that turned one of the happiest little boys in the world to a disillusioned cynical young man.
People are going to get stoned nomatter what. Be it a plant or various chemicals. We have people literally dropping dead from using various synthetic pot down the block from me. Or turning into mad zombies that feel no pain. Literally trying to eat people.
This kind of madness NEVER happens with cannabis.
If the WOD was truly about our safety, they would be banning all the deadly pills and alcohol that are currently sold almost like candy. You can buy and legally use drugs that are proven to cause death/violence. For things like insomnia, quitting smoking or even “stress”.
It’s an f’n joke. Nothing but a scam for government power and profit!
Not this sh*t again...
Tobacco kills people. Five gallon buckets kill people.
"People who drive under the influence of marijuana double their risk of being in a car crash, and about one in 10 daily marijuana users becomes dependent on the drug, according to a new review."
" adolescents who use cannabis regularly are about twice as likely as their nonuser peers to drop out of school, as well as experience cognitive impairment and psychoses as adults."
"here have been case reports of deaths from heart problems in seemingly otherwise healthy young men after they smoked marijuana,"
"Regular cannabis users also double their risk of experiencing psychotic symptoms and disorders such as disordered thinking, hallucinations and delusions — from about seven in 1,000 cases among nonusers to 14 in 1,000 among regular marijuana users, the review said. And, in a study of more than 50,000 young men in Sweden, those who had used marijuana 10 or more times by age 18 were about two times more likely to be diagnosed with schizophrenia within the next 15 years than those who had not used the drug."
Wow, look at that strawman.
That explains why they called me "Yosemite Larry." I kept smelling marijuana on folks.
Government needs to finance research on this possibility.
Yes! More research! More money for everyone! Wheee!
Alcohol is much more deadly.
Medical marijuana used to be a way for recreational activities sers to get around the laws, but now that it is being legalized it has a lot of real promise for medicine.
Marijuana + genetic modification = super drugs in the near future.
It will replace addictive opiods as pain killers, sleeping pills, etc.
