You can promote all the positive claims you like.
It factually does not outweigh the negative aspects, of the intense negative aspects and crime caused by drugs.
Those crimes ONLY EXIST BECAUSE THE DRUGS ARE ILLEGAL. Get that through your head ! It is sooooo obvious.
Dumbing down Americans is not a good thing.
When George Bush was Governor of Texas, literacy and numeracy hit an all-time low in the USA.
Maybe you should ban the Republican party
The lives meth and coke have ruined is all the evidence I need.
But what is it evidence of ?
You don't think very deeply for someone who claims to be into science.
Its like saying we could drink all day everyday and we would progress as a nation exactly the same as a straight nation. Factually that is not true.
No. That would be a totally ****-headed thing to say.
So why did you say it ?
Please don't start on the difference between the drugs, I know them well.
Doesn't sound like it.
Sounds like you've known some extreme cases. Probably actually cases of severe depression or psychosis, which have also included very unwise drug abuse.
And then you blame the drugs. Because the real causes are something you are in denial about ?
That pretty much describes many countries including America.
Massive economic problems fuel nationwide drug abuse which causes crime (by being illegal and therefore very expensive) and instead of looking at
the root causes of social and economic breakdown - you blame the drugs !
Same in North Korea. Same in India. Same in rural Australia. Same pretty much everywhere actually.
Because you
don't dare consider the real problem - you scapegoat
what is in fact a symptom.
And apart from that - you ignore the millions who enjoy cannabis (the subject of this thread originally) and focus on people with mental health problems and economic problems who turn to self-destructive abuse of drugs.
Denial.
So cannabis is another name for weed/marijuana?!?!
Aha!
Yes
Kaneh Bosm.
Ganja.
All this fuss over that ! Can you believe it ?!
The term marijuana has been dropped because it reminds Americans of anti-Mexican racism. They did steal a huge chunk of Mexico - which they prefer to forget.
A lot of the early 20th century drug hysteria had racism at its root.
Blacks and Hispanics liked weed.
