No, it’s way from the first death.

This isn’t your 1970’s pot (although I had a friend who became paranoid to the verge of psychosis from that in the 70s, but fortunately backed away in time).

I just read an article in a perfectly ordinary press source this morning about the huge number of teenagers and people in their early 20s turning up in emergency rooms after psychotic breaks - with their systems full of THC. Some can be cured and respond to anti-addiction programs, but about 30% of them then end up as permanent paranoid schizophrenics.

Marijuana now accounts for more addiction problems that all other drugs, including opioids. It’s extremely addictive and is one of the hardest addictions to cure. Pot is supported by and profited on by the federal government, the medical industry, the tobacco industry (since tobacco has been taken away) and the alcohol industry (since many governments are talking about restricting alcohol) and of course the drug gangs.

The government likes it because it makes people stupid and passive (until tht unfortunate psychotic break).

But then - ALL of the school shooters have had major amounts of THC in their system.

I see all these FReepers cheering marijuana legalization … and I just think that they’re easily manipulated fools and have no idea.

I think those cheering legalization are potheads and/or pushers.

I think some Freepers are just dope fiends, and they can’t live without their dope. Sooo, they want it to be legal. Or, they are Libertarians, which means that they have already fried their brains on Ayn Rand.
