Scary stuff.

We are dealing with powerful and highly addictive street drugs where the doses are incredibly small and hard to measure and everything is complicated by the fact that nobody knows what they are cutting the stuff with.

Not a good thing considering ghetto math and gang banger ethics.

The problem with the current crop of street drugs is that they are so harmful there is not much left to salvage after people have been addicted to them for any lenght of time due to the irreversible damage they do to the human body.

This includes the latest generation of engineered super potency, highly evolved cannibinol pot. This stuff ain't your old grand dads Acapulco Gold or Maui Wowwy.

The new weed is serious serious, dangerous stuff.

As pot gets formally legalized, we are increasingly seeing just how dangerous and destructive prolonged use of this stuff really is. It's destroying lives and the covid shut downs and stimulus money have turned a huge number of kids into hooked and non functional drop out stoners unable to hold a job or function in society.

why does everyone want to blame drugs?
that is like blaming guns for human poor decisions?
Problem is people. That is where you need to spend our efforts. Admit some just can’t be saved.

THC has no physiologically addictive properties. As a matter of fact, the human body, esp. lactating mothers, produces CBD naturally. Not disagreeing that the potency is much higher than 40 years ago, but it’s not possible to be physiologically addicted to pot. Basically, there’s no withdrawal like with alcohol or other harder drugs, but people can be psychologically hooked on it.

Again with this ignorance! I have indulged heavily in both epochs and I enjoy a mild buzz off a couple puffs today versus many back in the day. Not everyone reacts the same, but this indulgence is not comparable in any way to the scourge of opiods and meth amphetamines.

If only the people we elected cared about those they represent and would clean up such a deadly, non controlled product that kills people. 🧐 You know those smart Romans had the perfect phase to characterize such a situation... Cui bono?
