Cannabis can precipitate the first episode of psychosis If someone has a predisposition to a psychotic illness, such as schizophrenia, use of drugs such as cannabis may trigger the first episode in what can be a lifelong, disabling condition. There is increasing evidence that regular cannabis use precedes and causes higher rates of psychotic illness. Psychotic illnesses are characterised by: Delusions – for example, the person believes they have special powers. Hallucinations – for example, the person hears voices or sees things that aren’t really there. Thought disorder – for example, the person has difficulty organising their thoughts. When people experience psychotic symptoms, they are unable to distinguish what is real. They lose contact with reality.
keep on smokin' it....
Haven't for many years - nor used the drug alcohol.
an make sure your kids toke away too....
Should we ban alcohol so kids won't use it?
Actually, since kids report that they can now get marijuana more easily than cigarettes or beer, it follows that the best way to restict their access to drugs is to make them legal for adults only (thus giving those who sell to adults a disincentive to sell to kids - namely, the loss of their legal adult market).

Sounds like the last time I got drunk.
Gotta love those wiggle words!
Also: Source?
Also: And alcohol?
Also: I'm sure that it would be no problem carrying out a study to prove that inhaling gasoline fumes "could" pose a similar risk - Should we therefore also illegalize gasoline?

WTF does that have to do with what I posted?
Your non-sequitur response is akin to replying to “cars should be legal” with “oh, so you just want to run people over with your car all day?”
