One of the effects of marijuana on people who use it is to induce a highly emotional, defensive reaction when others criticize the drug. Something about the marijuana high opens up a real sore spot, and the marijuana user spends much of their time guarding it from any criticism. It’s kind of weird, doesn’t happen with other drugs.
Another effect of marijuana is amotivational syndrome. It’s very sad to see 40 year olds living on Mom’s couch.
Do you have any specific examples? I am retired after 40 years of working as a carpenter. Residential, commercial, heavy highway and industrial aspects. Awarded custody of my son at age 4, and raised to almost 19 before leaving our home. Worked 40 months in Iraq and Afghanistan as a civilian contractor. 10 years military service working as a parachute rigger. Heavy drop, ejection, etc. I’ve been hiking the Pacific Crest Trail, for the last 3 years, covering 2,200 miles. Worked on a successful political campaign to unseat a sitting US senator. Was there something you wanted to iterate involving the use of MJ? Go ahead. I’m listening.
