Well, anyone who smoked pot 40 years has to have their cognitive abilities impaired to support legalization of pot.
That is an opinion that isn’t supported by any facts. Perhaps you could explain why a prohibition on alcohol required a constitutional amendment and prohibition of other drugs does not. You could demonstrate your amazing intellectual skills and knowledge in doing so.
I dont know. Ive seen people in college who smoked daily, but when they were sober, they had excellent cognitive abilities. Its the same as people who drink. They act drunk when they are drunk, but all my friends passed their courses. They knew that there was a time to drink and a time to do work, and separated it.
One of my friends smoked every day and finished with an Industrial Engineering Degree in 2 1/2 years and then was accepted into a masters program based on merit.
These are just anecdotal stories, but I have seen people thrive while still throwing down in their offtime.
