First thing I notice, they make no distinction between dried cannabis, and oil, or edibles, or weed crack (wax), or hash. They just lump it all together as marijuana.

Second thing is, they are going over multiple studies and publishing only the adverse effects. Which mostly are all common sense. Driving, mental illness, pregnancy, are all things a person should know weed is going to affect you in an adverse way.

Then the suggestion at the end, that you need a prescription to buy it legally.

I'll place my wager the article was bought and paid for by big pharma.

It reminds of people who have never fired a rifle in their life, making gun laws. You mean there is difference between a .22 and Vulcan cannon? They are both guns.

You have to read between the lies, and think critically. But if you don't know, you don't know, take these doctors words for it, vaccines good, weed bad.

Both sound like ARs to me, which is pretty terrifying.

You make decent points. For the most part, though, I see your comments as somewhat of a leap. To be able to tie increased drug/substance abuse to increases in adverse affects doesn’t equate to increase in big pharma instead. If anything, my takeaway from all of it is to avoid taking anything.

You’re absolutely right, though, that we should always question what we read…never take anything for face value. Who is funding these is 100% relevant, and was not so cohensidentaly left unsaid.

here's a concept: moderate your own behavior and don't ask the federal fucking government to hold your hand every 5 seconds.

shocking, i know.

two sides to everything....or more, i suppose.

While i agree that we can't have the government regulate everything, that doesn't solve this issue: rampant, now legalized drug use. Through the legalization, a certain amount of credibility is given to it...removal of negative social stigma. What was once a dirty drug used by niggers is now treated at commonplace and something connoisseurs can revel in.

It all comes back to the slow, steady dissolution of social cohesion and homogeny. Without social pressures to help keep communities in line, all of the free time and easy life can be filled with whatever self-destructing past times are available. And while the aryan population continues to kill itself off, jews pump the browns in to replace them. kalgerie plan 101.

So yes, government shouldn't regulate every aspect of our lives. At the same time, government should prioritize the health of the populace's culture.

Anytime the government intervenes in ANYTHING, it makes it worse on a long enough timeline. No exceptions.

Let the private market regulate itself and I guarantee you there'd be tons of options of addiction and recovery. Social cohesion is inherent when you have a group of like-minded people of a single race. The real issue here is forced integration and drug usage is merely a symptom of the disaster it has caused because people want ANY reason to take away the misery. And of course, forced integration IS the government fucking with people's private affairs.

You're treading dangerously close to sounding like a jew who views the population as your crop of goyim cattle to manage as you see fit.

100%. In addition to misery, though, I’d add apathy. This is Brave New World playing out before our eyes. Instead of soma, we are provided with pot which leads to pain killers, heroin, meth, and so on.

Maybe it’s not misery? But lack of purpose, which ties back to the lack of social cohesion. Emptiness. And drugs simply fill the void. But really, that’s just debating on semantics of it. The cause seems pretty straightforward.

Total BS. Who paid for the study, big pharma?

I looked at that too quickly and saw "" and I'm all like I know they're annoying but they're not in the same class as drugs...

Years ago I had a friend who got into weed. He said that it’s not as big a deal as alcohol, but once he started smoking every day he became mildly stoned and stupid all the time—even when he hadn’t smoked since the day before.

Thankfully he wasn’t addicted, so he cut it back to maybe once per week.

There are probably a lot of frequent weed smokers who should not be operating heavy machinery, ie. driving.

That was enough to tell me the stuff should not be used regularly. Reading that article makes it even clearer.

I remember trying it a handful of times in high school…always ended up just feeling stupid. I can’t imagine walking around trying to function like that all the time…

I get that it impacts everyone a little differently…one of the smartest guys in my school (md/phd) was a big proponent and frequent user…but still, can’t help but think he could’ve achieved more if he were sober.

At the end of the day, those who indulge that frequently are masking underlying issues, and sugar coating those issues with drugs or alcohol will allow them to fester and spread. I’m not surprised at all to read how many other issues frequent pot use is tied to.

edit: cleaning up text that read like it was written by a stoned retard.

I smoked a lot when I was younger. Much prefer in moderation. Went over a friend's place last night. I only need one or two hits. Good time. Probably haven't smoked in a month or two.

Like most things, moderation is the key.
