Probably quite a lot less than a room full of drunks.

And probably way, way less than a room full of junkies.

yeah, that's it. cannabis is actually harmless, i made this thread out of spite. clearly.

denial is also a character trait of pot heads, you'll come to terms with it one day.

I appreciate that some of my fave dub tunes were probably made under the influence of marijuana, but i also think about what dirty fucking potheads they are, do they even have proper jobs?

no, it is not good for you, idiot.
Yes, I am aware of that thankyou. My issue isn't even with the study it's self which seems to be saying if you use strong weed every day for a long period it might cause you some problems especially if you start at a young age. Everybody knows that, it's common sense and applies to any drug. I would never argue it was "good for you".

But the BBC dragging in Cath from Berkshire to tell us all how she ruined her life, throwing around buzzwords like SKUNK and putting out the idea that we need to "abolish" it (http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p02k3xmz) is scaremongering to keep up support for senseless prohibition. Not surprising, it's the BBC they do this sort of one sided reporting all the time (as well as other media outlets).

I like smoking weed and I one day hope it will be legal so we get rid of damaging social problems caused by prohibition. The BBC and other media are going to use this report (and blow it's findings out of all proportion) to try and make sure that doesn't happen against all common sense = scaremongering (imho).
