Legalized Marijuana

[rory_20_uk]

Yes, and hash has the risk of causing a psychotic break in certain individuals, or of causing permanent brain damage in teenagers - and don't tell me that's not true, because I lived with a former smoker. At one point I had to sit him down and gently explain that he hadn't been buying milk for two weeks, he'd been using the tiny Welsh girl's and she was too timid to tell him.

And...? Or is the State there to ban everything that could be dangerous to us? Most scales of drugs that assess both the medical and social damage drugs do has little if any correlation between legality / class of drugs and damage.

Not to mention:

Asprin causes people to die from haemorrages in the brain and GI tract.
Paracetamol can cause people to die from liver failure

I've yet to hear anti-drugs campaigners try to argue the data and prefer to head off into case studies or, in the case of the UK government, sack the independant panel for being independant.

There are many other activities that certain persons will suffer because of, be that gambling, exercise or even (manipulated) images of models.
