If you're on HN, chances are, you're not very correlated to the sample from this research study... which looks entirely at correlation, not causation. I'm interested in a long-term study that identifies real differences in health outcomes, not just population bias.
- worik 6y agoIn the 1970s there was the Shaffer (sp?) study in Jamacia. Since then there have been hundreds of studies. Generally cannabis, and recreational drugs generally, have not much in the way of negative measurable effects. Remember it is only good drugs that have to be banned: There are no laws (generally) against Atrpine (datura), digitalis (foxglove) et. el. Just the good, fun, safe drugs have to have laws against them.
- adamjb 6y agoThere's no point banning it if no one's doing it.
- the_only_law 6y agoWell from my understanding a lot of the reason some of the “good, fun, safe” drugs were criminalized in the first place had to do with targeting specific groups. I don’t think there are any large enough groups crazy enough to use datura regularly the government would want to target lol.
