Chicken or the egg? They use weed to try to do something because they are whacked out, or are they whacked out because of tue skunk butt weed?

Government says cannabis good...should be in everyone’s garden...looks like parsley. lol

The few people I knew who smoked pot in high school were not firing on all cylinders to begin with.
So cause and effect may be in question, but I'm pretty sure no one improved by using illicit drugs.

The weed and related products are so strong now they’re down right debilitating.

The solution for pot smokers is simple. They should start using tranq instead. Tranq has “short-lived” side effects. Just take a look at Kensington, PA. It’s a model neighborhood for tranq use.

So,

What are you saying about antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, stimulants, anti-psychotics, and mood stabilizers?

[OldWarBaby]

Yup. So the surfer dudes smoke some stuff to change their head? Then it changes their head. Did we pay any money to find out weed screws people up? Who’d uh thunk it?

Well... What do you get when you combine Prozac with an AR 15?

[Skywise]

No no... I’ve been assured that smoking pot is healthy for you and not harmful at all like that icky tobacco which is a nasty habit. Smoking tobacco BAD! smoking pot GOOD AND HEALTHY!

[P.O.E.]

[momincombatboots]

Do you mean Pfizer and Moderna.

[AppyPappy]

I grow my own and it has a low THC level but a higher CBD level. Smoking it would just wreck your lungs.

Jim, before the drugs.

And yes, that’s Tom Hanks.

I’m just joking. (Kind of) :)
