Pot crusader Marc Emery says his appearance on the news program 60 Minutes on Sunday will be an opportunity for Americans to see him as just an ordinary guy who regards himself as the Luke Skywalker against their government's Darth Vader tactics.

Ritalin is as addictive as meth.
So potheads are entitled to sell dope?
No, I was concerned for your safety. You may want to cut back on the Ritalin.

Really? Are Bill Gates and George Bush stupid?

Stoned on Ritalin is better?

If there were any great amount of real problems with cannabis use - I think it would be showing up in a notable way. "The latest treatment data indicate that, in 2000, marijuana was the primary drug of abuse in about 15 percent (236,638) of all admissions to treatment facilities in the United States. Marijuana admissions were primarily male (76 percent), White (57 percent), and young (46 percent under 20 years old). Those in treatment for primary marijuana use had begun use at an early age; 56 percent had used it by age 14 and 92 percent had used it by 18..."

"in 2000, marijuana was the primary drug of abuse in about 15 percent (236,638) of all admissions to treatment facilities in the United States."No indication in their source (apparently http://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/teds01/TEDS2K1Index.htm) as to how many of these admissions were court-ordered ... or what constitutes marijuana "abuse" ... so it proves exactly nothing other than that there's serious money to be made "treating" marijuana "abusers".
