“...marijuana users are likely to use heroin or other more potent substances.”

Cool story. Too bad there’s no real scientific data to validate this long debunked claim.

I began using cannabis at age 54 in Feb 2015 for medicinal reasons. As I’ve posted in numerous threads previously, I thank God in Heaven every day for this wonderful plant. I have a set schedule of use & very rarely deviate from that. I have zero interest in crap like Heroin or “other more potent substances”.

I know many other folks who use cannabis medicinally. Like me these are people who never used cannabis after their early 20’s or at all. None of them to my knowledge have ever had an interest in harder drugs nor have they used them.

Reefer Madness was & remains a lie. The BS prohibitionists spew today hasn’t changed though. Thankfully, via anecdotal evidence & studies from Israel (who has an excellent medical cannabis program for their elderly) pretty much all the “reefer madness” BS has been throughly debunked & proven to be false, IMO.

At age 54 did you have a world view that was well formed enough and stable enough to have allowed you to have survived to that age; and does the present generation who’ve been indoctrinated into a state of cultural psychosis in which they can’t even figure out which sex they are — have the same benefit?
