Ok all the answers have research shows in them but where is the links to the research that they are talking about?I can make stuff up to off the top of my head and say research shows but if i cant show the reasearch that a strong indication that im lying.Plus watching reefer madness three times in a row while your drunk off your ass doesnt count as research
Good point, where is this research?
I'm on your ping list, and I did a little research of my own in high school, way back in the late 70's. ;-) And I can personally attest to the paranoia part. :-0
But, not physical addiction. I'd always read it wasn't physically addictive.
I'm anti-WOD, but only because I don't want the gov't spending money saving people from themselves, risking the lives of others to do so, denying people the right to make their own medical decisions, and only resulting in promoting more serious drugs that are easier to conceal.
I don't want my own children making the same stupid choices that I did when I was a kid, but it's my responsibility - not the government's - to make sure they don't.
