LOL!

hahahaha

lol

hardly a reliable or conclusive statistic

You need to search a database of information from reliable sources with scientific statistics and data. Googling "Marijuana Mental Issues," simply won't do.

Also, if you really wanna argue your case, make sure all of your sources are peer reviewed, noobs. GOSH. Friggin' amateurs!

lol maybe thats why omega rages sometimes cause he knows hes mentally handicap :)

super lawl

good for lols, but this seems like the study has many holes in it. Many of the symptons could have been cause by interactions and experiences seperate from the drug use unique to that 28%.
ex. If you lose your job and are robbed your mental state will be more fucked up than someone elses regardless of weed.

They need to conduct this study in controled enviornments that negate everything but the weed. That way the control group (non smokers) and the experimental group (smokers) go through the same experiences.

LOL i dont think the study was aimed at proving something, but more over just researching.


and someone tell me why, oh holy F*CK why, yall hemp-huffers rant and rave about how good pot is for you, then when some institute publishes a study that MIGHT show unfavorability, yall fly off the handle and rage worse than kano getting owned by sugar, BUT when some unpublished, uncertified, unimportant jackoff who works for High Times discovers a beneficial fact about it, stoners world wide have a cumfest?

I would never use High Times as a source lol.

hey i used to be a pothead myself and totally support it being legalized, but i think it would have an easier time going through the asshole of the government if you undigested little nuts would stop attacking the research data.

Woah Woah I support any facts that are true about marijuana, the good and the bad, however my opinion on the matter that the good things out-weigh the bad. Thousands of people who smoke cigarettes and drink alcohol die every year to what are legal products. Marijuana is far less of problem than either of those if used in moderation. Not too mention if it was legalized marijuana could be maintained by the FDA. I also think the drug has a great medicinal value that should be used across the U.S.

would make a great cash crop for america, cause once we gave black people rights, cotton fell off that wagon.

If you haven't seen it there was an airing of a TV show about "The Marijuana Triangle" in California's Mendocino county called "Marijuana Inc. Inside America’s Pot Industry". It talks all about the marijuana trade in northern California. It is a good documentary to get some good information. Apparently marijuana creates 2/3 of the communities wealth, totally believable. Take a look if you haven't seen it.

Marijuana Inc

^This

I only smoked pot twice, both times I turned into a paranoide freak (the tinfoil hat kind) and was not all that fun to be around so I never smoked it again.
I do however support people who want to smoke it.
As far as the mental issues assoiciated with pot, I know some really smart people who smoke up all the time more than some of the retard stoners back home and they are still smart. I think it's cause they actually use their brain rather than "durrrrrrrrrrrrrr wes need mor pot"
There needs to be way more testing done.

i would also suggest you watch a movie called the union, which talks about the propaganda behind criminalizing and demonizing marijuana, including government sponsored tests that suffocated monkeys with marijuana smoke in order to prove it killed brain cells. this is why we attack the research data.

Weed is only bad for the mental state when a person stops smoking it.

I've noticed, that with all drugs, people fall into a deep depression when they come down. These people have to keep getting drunk or high so they don't have to deal with a reality.

Whenever you stop doing anything that regularly uses up your dopamine receptors it's going to cause a depression of some sort.
