The college administrators will turn a blind eye when students violate drug laws, but become manic enforcers if campus speech codes are violated.
At least we know who will be defaulting on their share of $1 Trillion in student debt.
Now days you would probably be in a. Lot of trouble if you were caught smoking cigarettes on a campi

Indeed. And they’re gonna act all shocked that they can’t land a job with their Bachelor of Arts Degrees in Illicit Drug Consumption.
Stop Smoking campaigns don’t include MJ.
was this a 1976 study???
I’m shocked at how common pot smoking is with high school students; clean kids should have the pick of the jobs...
If I was forced to take classes in gender/ethnic studies and sit through umpteen diatribes on the virtues of communism, I’d be getting stoned, too.
Pot Ping!
Dave’s not here.
Pot is a mind alternating; degrading your performance, and it is brain damaging drug and it is full of tar when smoked.
The other drug, nicotine, is not mind altering, but is addictive and will kill you over time via it’s filthy delivery method (tar).
Neither are good for you, but the mind altering, brain damaging one is more destructive than the other.
As is alcohol.
As cigarette usage declines the government will look at new ways to tax its citizens.
I never heard it caused lung cancer. I did read recently of a study that found brain function is reduced in teens and young adults who engage in regular pot smoking - permanently. That means brain damage.
Pot should never be confused with ciggs. in the minds of users. Pot is brain and mind altering and ciggs are not. Adults should not represent pot to young people as being harmless for them. Anyone who needs quick reactions (driving), focus (driving) and high brain function (work), should consider only recreational pot use.
I am sure you know that some pot is more potent than others and it’s important to know what you are doing to measure the degree of handicap you are dealing with.

Legalization for minors is not on the table. And since young people report that they can get pot more easily than beer or cigarettes, it seems that the best way to keep pot out of their hands is to legalize it for adults; sellers of legal drugs typically card minors, whereas sellers of illegal drugs never do.
Adults should not represent pot to young people as being harmless for them.
I can't remember the last time I saw anyone claim that pot is harmless; currently that seems to be a straw man that the Reefer Madness brigade likes to beat rather than address legalizers' actual arguments.

Labeling requirements can be effectively enforced only in a legal market.
Alcohol does not damage brain cells.
