“These articles are all pretty damning as far as effects of marijuana go. “
Pure fallacy once again.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26849855. This one is basically a “no kidding” kind of “study”. It’s a no brainer that people with dramatic brain injury prpbably shouldn’t use cannabis.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27224247 Concludes with, “Long-term prospective studies starting in early adolescence are needed to reach final conclusions.” Which is what I’ve been saying all along, Fedzilla needs to life the prohibition against cannabis so it can be properly studied by 3rd parties researchers here I’m America.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28557129 Conclues with: “Recreational stimulants such as cocaine or MDMA (3.4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine) and sedative drugs such as cannabis damage human homeostasis and well-being through similar core psychobiological mechanisms.” I think we can all agree that cocaine & MDMA aren’t for recreational use. Different strains of cannabis are definitely sedating (thank you Lord) but to say cannabis damages human homeostasis in this day of Ambien, Trazodone & others is laughable. I’ll take cannabis over big Pharma meds for sleep every night—which I do since 2015. I sleep like a baby as a result.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28614161 A single care/patient study that looks at a 14 yr old who should have NEVER been allowed to use cannabis at all abused cannabis and MIGHT be at risk of stroke for their efforts. “Long-term daily use of marijuana in young people may cause serious damage to the cerebrovascular system.” Well, duh. Cannabis is like everything else in life: too much isn’t good for you & people under 18 shouldn’t use it at all.
“... it doesn’t look good for those who insist that marijuana use is harmless.”
Too much of anything isn’t good for us. Hardly earth shaking for there to be negative consequences for abusing any substance.
At least you posted some links this time. They don’t validate your FUD but they are actual articles with some facts in them. Lot’s of “might”, “it’s possible” and “long term studies are needed”. Fun reading :)
As I predicted: you are not interested in any of the evidence, and very dismissive of it once you see it. You very cleverly put a stipulation that you would only believe research that is not done by professionals, so you have a built-in excuse not to believe any bona-fide research.
BTW, your many spelling and grammatical errors do not help to make your case that marijuana is essentially harmless, either.
