If we want to compare anecdotes, I can list several that show pot does impair thought processes, reaction time and so on. In fact, I was a pot smoker in my younger days, so I know from personal experience. Put bluntly, those who claim that it does not are either not speaking from experience or are not being honest.

Bring 'em on! Just be prepared to back them up with facts...

Personal experience is not a very good bass to make an argument. I know people who get falling down drunk off of two beers...while others can consume a 12 pack with very little effect. I make the above claim...Now call me a liar if you wish, but I guarentee I have way more "experience" than you.

Of course, it's possible to smoke enough strong cannabis to impair your consciousness for anything except inner revelations, but you can also drink enough coffee to make you a nervous wreak. You can drink enough whisky to feel good or enough to pass out.

Just smoking enough cannabis to relax, or so to say "get a head on" does not impair even driving skills. There is enough research results to indicate that people who have smoked that much pot are actually safer on the road.

Even the extreme instant use of cannabis is not enough to make it illegal or immoral or justify the damage done to otherwise innocent people. There is no evidence that it's destructive to society in any area such that it calls for the use of police powers.
