Please cite a study which proves that kids from comparable areas where pot is more easily available turn out worse — say, less education, or more likely to commit crimes as adults. Or is this all knee-jerking in response to “people who look different” than your average desk jockey.

I don’t think I was quite that adventurous when I was 16, though I did study in Poland the semester after high school. Eventually ended up traveling to Budapest and Prague with a friend and later alone.
Also had a job with the local engineering company as a Unix/mail admin, gofer, and occasional troubleshooter of HVAC controls when I was 17!
