You should talk to my brother, perhaps he's an extreme case though. Cronic dope smoker......feet don't hit the floor in the morning without scorchin' a root. Real nut-ball. Poster boy for why you shouldn't smoke dope. Started out a normal kid, how 45 and wildly paranoid....no ambition. He might have about 6 or 7 brain cells working on a good day. Had all the breaks in life but still can't hold down a job for more than a few weeks. One way trip to loserville. No one can ever convince me, ever, that dope smoking doesn't effect your brain in an adverse way. Go peddle that less addictive stuff somewhere else.

He certainly is. Why should ALL adults have their freedom restricted because SOME adults can't handle freedom?

Well, let's start with I have/had 7 brothers, 3 of which are regular Pot smokers, all three have steady jobs, and lives.
One brother, died from years of abuse of alcohol.
Three brothers, who don't drink much, or smoke ever.
Just like in Mayberry RFD. you will always have an Otis the town drunk,
or Jeff Spicoli. If it wasn't Pot, I'd bet your brother would be on something else,
an Addictive personality is and addictive person.
I have seen it, and if Pot was as addictive as you would have us believe I would have 3 brothers living like yours,
so go peddle your gov't propoganda somewhere else.

The plural of "anecdote" is not "data."

Why haven't you turned him into the police yet? It's "for his own good" isn't it?

By the way, I also have brothers, as well as other family members who have been smoking pot for more than twenty years. They're all very successful businessmen.

If you're brother is a loser, you might want to blame him, not the pot. In other words, it's not the pot's fault that he's a loser, it's his fault he's a loser.

Once again though, I have to ask, if you are a Woddie, why haven't you turned him in to the police? If you are a woddie you want other people jailed. What makes your loser brother so different or so special?
