"I'm not advocating any kid or anyone try anything or be told they should. I'm advocating a policy of drug legalization based on facts, not fear or the assumed "common sense" of the current prevailing religious hedegmony. In any case you are confusing correlation with causation."
No, I'm not. I've seen a change that went directly from productive and ambitious individual to not giving a fuck only wanting to get high asshole. No confusion here. The pot is what did it. When some of those people quit, the were themselves again.

Ok, as long as we actually outline the adverse health effects of pot and mention stories like mine. You seem to eager to brush these things under the carpet. I feel that pot advocates don't want "facts", they want the public to be told that pot is alright to use. Pretty much all advocacy sites are completely biased and only told about the rainbows and kittens. Even people telling the truth about pot on here are immediately down voted.
- gcheong 16y agoAll of the people I know, myself included, whoever smoked pot went on to become successful, well-adjusted people in society. Do I take that as evidence that people should smoke pot in order to become well adjusted, successful citizens? Of course not. Correlation != causation. There are many factors why someone would drop out and end up just wanting to get high/play video games/surf the net/etc. Underlying depression can often be masked by substance abuse for example. The substance can cause an effect but it can't control you. As for getting the facts out there and basing policy decisions on them I want all the facts to be known, positive and negative.
