Pot makes people paranoid and likely to believe conspiracy theories and fake news. I know of one real instance where a woman thinks “the powers that be” are persecuting her. No, she brings it onto herself by bringing men who cause commotion and smooch off of her. [/quote]
You sound like a 1970s government advertisement against marijuana, Brian. Wildly uninformed and ridiculously dramatic.

I foresee the downfall of America. If we want to remain #1, we need to get our act together and study hard and work hard like they do in Singapore. Gettin’ fat and high ain’t gonna cut it.[/quote]
If you feel the same way about alcohol
– only more strongly, because people abusing alcohol cost far more in terms of deaths, injuries, property damage, lost production, crime, homelessness, heartache, incarceration costs (not counting people who are in jail for marijuana dealing/possession crimes, as that’s the government’s decision), and pretty much any other metric you can think of –
then I’ll agree to disagree with you.
But if you think the dangers of marijuana are anywhere close to the dangers of alcohol, then I’m going to call you seriously uninformed.
