gee. i though personal attacks were frown upon....oh, i forgot, liberals are passionate about their beliefs...
you actually utterly miss the subtlety in this post. Several of the topics posted lately have dealt with social issues (scooters for 'old' people, this post about pot) where it is glaringly obvious that most of the respondents are completely self-absorbed.
Why not bash a prestigious journal/study unless you just don't want to know about the downside to your little habit?? are you claiming pot is good you your health?
why beat up on old people over a little scooter...for many of these people, they would not be able to get out of the house without it. Yes, some are obese and might do better with exercise, but they can't because their obesity has caused arthritis which prevents them from exercising!!
Quick to blame, quick to discard, quick to ignore....it is really quite sad..
Huh? More rambling and cherry-picking of responses I see. Respond to all of these in kind, and you may gain a bit of respect.
(1)- It's not my habit.
(2)- Only an idiot would think pot is either good for your health, or has no health consequences whatsoever.
(3)- What subtlety? And what does little old people with scooters have to do with Pot being a habit with negative consequences to your health?
(4)- What makes me a 'liberal'? I am extremely pro-gun, anti-welfare, small-government, and anti-war (unless in defensive/justified means, like the destruction of the Taliban in Afghanistan).
(5)- Are you seriously trying to say that this study, which indicates a 40% rate of mental illness as a result of marijuana smoking (from one 'joint', lol) has any validity in the face of hundreds of previous studies which outline the dangers as far less severe?
To restate, it's obvious that pot is NOT good for you, the logic of this is widely accepted. Neither are alcohol, cigarettes, or twinkies. What is also quite obvious, is that we don't have a huge number of people roaming the streets with Schizophrenia due to pot usage. The article you posted is patently ridiculous, as it profiles a few douchebags who happen to be drug users that have committed crimes. Well gee, that's logical. Look at the literally hundreds of thousands of murders committed globally each year that do NOT have anything to do with drug users/abusers. A killer is a killer, drugs have little to nothing to do with it. Those morons would have murdered their victims regardless if they were merely common alcoholics or your average anti-social jerkoff.
Bah, I feel like I'm actually REPLYING to a practical joke post.
