Saw a tremendous number of cocaine and crack cases, lots of heroin, pills, methamphetamine, you name it.
And always, tons and tons of drunks.
Never did anyone present where the primary problem was cannabis intoxication. Now many people were stoned on pot, but something else was the primary reason that they came to the ER.
I suspect that the pot heads are so passive that they don't do the things that get them arrested and brought to the ER.
They're probably crashed on the couch eating Oreos and watching Pokemon.
See!
I TOLD you that marijuana wouldn't cause...
uhh....
err...
ummm...
What was the question again?
I was going to post a rebuttal to this whack job of a study, but after I read yours there was no need! Thanks.
No matter WHAT it takes, we have got to get the psychosocial harm OFF THE STREETS!
Pot heads, unlike drunks never start a sentence with "Hey guys, watch this!"
Psychosocial harm? If the question is: "Does Cannabis use decrease ambition and drive? Does it reduce the user's social skills? Does it correlate to missed classes or days at work, thereby contributing to lower social status and earning power?" I'd say this sort of psychosocial harm is rampant. But, no, ER visits do not correlate.
Pot is such a boring drug, in no time the user looks for something else.
No. They simply began counting more people (namely, anyone arrested in connection with marijuana).
KEEP SMOKIN' THAT STUFF
AND YOU'LL BE LIVIN' IN A VAN
DOWN BY THE RIVER!!!
But rest assured, I'm sure that being a clueless dope unable to comprehend or sort out even simple things, such as what web site and article you've been to and read, is not a psychosocial problem.
I've read where drug use indicates a pre existing condition, and the user is subconciously attempting to self medicate.
Having said that, pass the nachos!
You mean those people were going to act the exact same way WITHOUT pot? Scary.
Maybe a visit to some RAL pot heads "homes" would sober your thought processes up a little. Filthy children, filthy homes, job jobs(min wage ofcourse). Yeah their passive alright. to passive to even live a half way decent life. Looking for the next bag.
Potheads love their dope. They will concoct all kinds of rationalizations and defenses to justify their use. I know, I was one for many years now I work with addicts of all stripes daily and have for 6 years.
And candidates for the POT Hall of Fame, Bill Clinton, Brother Clinton (oh yeah, I hear he's a dead beat DAD out in CA., John Kerry et al. Don't you just love it, that passive BJ Thing brought us obl and the war on terror, and now that passive J FinKerry wants to finish us off. Toke away man.
