ignorant, stupid, naive, ungrateful, blah blah, any other insults, you seem full of them!! I have read enough of your drivel (and honestly, I skipped most of it and completely ignored whole posts, probably because I am ignorant). However even if it was legal, I still wouldn't smash your head in with a stone.

edit, oops, forgot to say, thanks for the positive contribution to the thread re MMJ.

In your opinion. And no it has been legalised in other countries for years now and has never been illegal in others for example, are we not to look to them for information and knowledge. Diagnosis is difficult because it is illegal to research it in many countries that have the ability to research it properly. People cannot make connections unless educated on issues. Your family and friends aren't a conclusive study, are they honest with you about their other drug use? are there social or economic issues as well? mental health issues in the family? and a link to the info you've read if possible so every one can educate themselves. You seem to make assumptions on what everyone knows or doesn't based on if you agree with it or not. Maybe people do know and aren't naive to the issues but feel the benefit to many outweight the negatives to the few. A plan can fail but can also work inaction never solves anything.

Most of the studies I read were on google scholar, I can't link you to a particular one as I formed my opinions on the whole, on top of what I've seen it do to people over decades. You can key the obvious words yourself and get to reading. I use to think canna was mostly side effect free, I changed my mind after reading and spending real time listening to people I know (the reason I started reading) who were and some still are destroying themselves with it. One thing I realised is it does not play well with depression (I make no claims if it creates or just worsens it) they all said the same thing, Im smoking too much, it's making me worse. Other people in different circles also talked about memory loss of all the heavy smokers I know, it's a common theme.

The memory loss thing is real I know that much for certain, it created a big dispute with a family member and friend. He had agreed to do something but days later it didn't get done, when asked why not he said he never agreed to do it. Then he was accused of lying but in truth he was too stoned, like always.. and forgot he agreed to it. We spent a lot of time together and I've been with him when things happened that he has no recollection of, even down to things he has said and done. A lot of times when I tell him he can remember '''awww shit yeah'' but not always. He also told me that sometimes he confuses a dream with something he was doing when too stoned. Obviously this is not casual smoking, rather heavy daily smoking. However I agree fully with you, of all the drugs to over use cannabis is probably the least punishing out there, but that doesn't make it ok. Over use is over use... and all these people claiming they smoked heavy for 5-10 year with no side effects are either lucky or they are not aware of the damage that has been done. The friends you could have lost over it, the job or partner strain it created, and so on. Heavy smokers in this country are not on the whole outgoing people with responsible jobs.. it's as if cannabis is their comfort blanket, aka face the world and grow up.

Again, using other country's as a legalisation argument is flawed because it automatically assumes said country is right, and that isn't true.

I also stated multiple times that I think heavy cannabis use is justified if you have a good medical reason to use it. I don't think it's justified if you are doing it just for the high, even if the only side effect is the cost, and that isn't a small deal with dependent family on low income.

I never said inaction. Legalise medically, keep it illegal for recreational while they do more research. Making that distinction sends the message that it is medication and you need a good reason to heavily use it, because you do.

Right, so they are weak people who in essence are worth the sacrifice so that those who can handle it can smoke freely. It's the same mentality as not having life guards at a pool, if they can't swim fuck em.

You have any other opinions on offer, other than returning to cave man survival of the fittest?.
