So the best ones according to you are the drug users?
Just as in the military they may have a problem always filling their jobs with the numbers and standards that they desire, but what makes you think that they don’t already have the best, and that the ones rejected are part of the lower levels?
(Sorry. It was CNN, not CSPAN.)
*I* did not say that. FBI said that.
And they aren’t finding people to fill the slots at the current standards. They are still trying to recruit. Always trying to recruit. The talent is out there, but most of them are not qualified because they smoke pot.
I’m only point out that, if regular pot use is really as terrible for brains as this study suggests, why is it that pot-users have the highest IQs? The people with the highest IQs are more likely to be drug users.
(I’m not saying that drugs makes people smart or that drugs do not impair cognitive ability. But the meme that pot use=stupid just isn’t true.)
So, here we have a study that says that pot use permanently hurts brains. And here’s another study that says the exact opposite.

(and no. I don’t do pot. Never have. But I have a problem with over-hyped BS gov’t propaganda. I despise the anti-drug hype just as much as I hate the Global Warming alarmist BS.)
