I’m embarrassed to say I’m a Pennsylvanian.
They ban cigarettes while they promote weed.
Eventually the trial lawyers will profit from the lawsuits from “victims” of smoking weed.

I think casual use probably doesnt do any more damage than casual alcohol use(.for most people) Ive personally known heavy duty users of cannabis that have ruined their brains and their life in general. Also people who have fragile psyches can be sent down a path to psychosis with just casual use.

They ban cigarettes PA has not banned cigarettes.
while they promote weed.
To legalize is not to promote.
Eventually the trial lawyers will profit from the lawsuits from victims of smoking weed.
Like they have for alcohol users? ROTFL!

Isn’t Attorney General Josh Shapiro one of those that Soros spent a lot of money on to get elected? I know there was someone in Pennsylvania.

Marijuana use causes brain damage, psychosis and schizophrenia.I call BS - let's see some evidence.
I think casual use probably doesnt do any more damage than casual alcohol use(.for most people)
Thanks for the dose of sanity.
Ive personally known heavy duty users of cannabis that have ruined their brains and their life in general.
Heavy duty use of cannabis or alcohol are bad ideas.
Also people who have fragile psyches can be sent down a path to psychosis with just casual use.
Probably also true of alcohol.

Your retarded "meaning" - to use the term loosely - is that every thread that has to do with marijuana is "the same thread." Go swill another 40.

A lot of money in legalizing.
Seems to be contributing to the ruin of Colorado; Which states are healthier, and better places to live for non-addicts, after legalizing cannabis ?
