Now that CoVID ‘spikes’ are in a lot of people’s brains, are previous studies of cannabis effects germane? Cannabis seemed to have a deleterious effect on CoVID in vitro, IIRC.

“In their defense, MJ could be “laced” with other substances; unfortunately, it’s no different from today...”

Illegal MJ is still sometimes laced, legal MJ is not - just as illegal alcohol sometimes has contaminants while legal alcohol doesn’t.

Colorado:

Marijuana is the most common drug found in the toxicology of teenagers who have committed suicide. Between 2014 and 2018, the proportion of suicides under the influence of marijuana has increased from 14 to 23%.

Of teenagers aged 15-19 who committed suicide in 2018, 37% tested positive for marijuana (of the two thirds whose toxicology information was available). The trend appears to be exacerbated by the growing potency of the drug, which causes irreversible damage to teenagers’ health.

“Between 2014 and 2018, the proportion of suicides under the influence of marijuana has increased from 14 to 23%.”

It also increased in nonlegalizing states; “Liberalized marijuana policies do not appear to have influenced increases in marijuana-positive toxicologies among youth” - https://psycnet.apa.org/record/2019-23139-053

Yeah, Marijuana will never affect our youth and their performance in our military services:

“The Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company, owned by candy mogul Mars Inc., filed lawsuits in May against five companies for selling cannabis-infused edibles that look like common candy products, including Skittles, Starburst and Life Savers”.

Cannabis makes one commit intellectual property infringement?
