The first one is illogical, because the reason for smoking a "blunt and a half" is BECAUSE weed mellows a person out. So it's NOT going to be the cause of "bouncing a baby off of the walls" like, oh I don't know, METH would.
Secondly, notice he is saying who possesses a gun while passed out on weed is an act of violence. Fairly major logic stretch there.
Sorry, the data is massive - weed does not cause violence or overdose deaths, even in children.
What weed CAN cause, in a minimal (as in not majority) number of instances is anxiety or panic attacks.
In addition, chronic weed smoking of fairly heavy levels in early teens has been shown to disrupt brain development on measurably damaging ways.
So instead of letting cops claim yet another reason to start blowing people away, it would help if the actual, real-world problems with weed were addressed. That way maybe effective laws concerning this PLANT could be created that protected those needing protection, without raping civil rights.
Hey I can dream, can't I?
I know, absolutely and for a fact, that a heavy user of marijuana (remember Trayvon only had “trace” amounts of it in his system), who hasn’t been able to score for a while, can get really really cranky, and downright mean. I haven’t seen violence, but I’ve seen the mean and it’s not pretty.
