Where ever mj is legalized, other drug use goes up. OR is getting ruined now. Huge increase in meth and heroin along with increased mj dopers, and of course homelessness, crime, and so on and so forth.

It’s a lie that people switch from other drugs to mj if mj is legalized. It just means a positive drug culture - wheeee it’s all good! more drug use. Oh, and more prostitution, too.

“Where ever mj is legalized, other drug use goes up.”

Another declarative statement with zero evidence to back it up.

“It’s a lie that people switch from other drugs to mj if mj is legalized.”

Fake news. It’s been proven in various studies that opioid use in states with medical marijuana programs.

Excerpt: “Research released in February from the University of British Columbia and University of Victoria suggests patients suffering from chronic pain and mental health conditions will choose marijuana over their addictive prescription drugs when doctors give them a choice.”

So you were saying, little prohibitionist Jeremiah???
