"Why is it that the states with the highest marijuana use actually lower rates of serious mental illness than the states with the lowest marijuana use?"

Because the amount of coffee consumed in those particular states is almost double the national average.

Hmmmmm. Had you going there, didn't I? Thought you overlooked something, didn't you?

Well, the fact that I made you think demonstrates that there may be many other factors involved. All can contribute, one way or the other.

Your attempt to isolate and compare only two of them (pot and mental illness) is faulty.

I wish people would look with the same dose of healthy skepticism at these faulty studies and scare tactic propaganda that comes along with them inferring a massive wave of insanity being caused by this new super pot.
