Marijuana IS associated with mental illness, especially amongst teenagers.

It's not the cause of mental illness, but it can bring it out in the open where it can be treated. Actually it is useful in detecting mental illness.

As far as lives being ruined by cannabis, stop blaming things and circumstances! Personal responsibility people!

Marijuana IS associated with mental illness

Association is not causation. "But here's the conundrum: while marijuana went from being a secret shared by a small community of hepcats and beatniks in the 1940s and '50s to a rite of passage for some 70% of youth by the turn of the century, rates of schizophrenia in the U.S. have remained flat, or possibly declined." - http://www.time.com/time/health/article/0,8599,2005559,00.html

It’s not for kids. Not any more than alcohol is before the age of 20 or 21.
