marijuana and schizophrenia
BIG LINK!
I've known hundreds of people that smoke weed and not one is a schizophrenic. On the other hand I've got a cousin who is schizophrenic and he doesn't smoke weed but he drinks to excess, to the point that it's a detriment to him.

wow you are stuipid. one study from last year claimed that, then you spout it as truth. lots of studies have shown that marijuana CAUSES schizophrenia funny how you "pot is not bad for you" morons ignore hundreds of studies that are far more strongly powered than a couple of "marijuana isn't bad" studies that are not well powered at all. the bulk of evidence based medicine shows that marijuana: 1. causes schizophrenia 2. leads to depression 3. leads to addiction 4. CAUSES CANCER but keep focusing only on the few studies that say what you already believe
List the known bad effects of excessive alcohol consumption and compare the two. By that standard you should be the first one begging for a return to prohibition. Alcohol abuse is much worse medically than pot but I bet you don't preach against that now do ya?

I thought pot made people happy. You're just grumpy and mean. You should chill and have a nice scotch to mellow out.

I am very comfortable with alcohol and think habitually smoking weed is trashy.
Idk why, maybe just how I was raised? Does seem weird when you think about it...

But alcohol is legal...
They push alchohol 24 hours a day on TV, they push it down your throat.
DRINK BEER DRINK BEER DRINK BEER
Why?
Well, 'cause it makes you slow, stupid, and docile, and that's the way they like you to be.
Ya know, it's only the #2 killer drug in the world. But, I've actually seen beer commercials during the War Against Drug specials. No sense of irony. No one fricking gives a shite.
Cigarettes, legal
Alcohol, legal
Kill more people than all the other illegal drugs combined, x 1000
They aren't illegal
Marijuana, a drug that kills no one (and let's put it in a time frame) EVER!
Marijuana's against the law...You tell me why....I've given up...
Want a better world, legalize pot, o.k.?
It's a better drug, I'll prove it to ya.
You go to a concert or a ball game, someone's really obnoxious, violent, and agressive. Are they drunk or are they smoking pot?
Drunk would be the one and only correct answer.
We all know the truth.
I've never seen someone on pot get into a fight, because we know that's fricking impossible.
Not only do I think marijuana should be legal, it should be mandatory.
That would be a nice world. Mellow, hungry, high people everywhere. Just Dominos pizza trucks passing each other. Every single highway, parades of Dominos.
I've never heard one reason that rang true why marijuana is against the law. Marijuana grows all over the world and serves a thousand different functions, ALL of them positive.
To make marijuana against the law is like saying God made a mistake.
It's like God, on the seventh day, looked down on his creation and said "There it is, my creation, perfect and holy in all ways. Now I can rest.........Oh my, me, I left frickin' pot everywhere.....I should never have smoked that joint on the third day......Boy, if I leave pot everywhere it's going to give people the impression they should use it."
So you see, it's a vicious cycle, and one we're paying for dearly daily.
I am not promoting the use of drugs, I'm just saying if you're going to have a war against drugs, have it against all drugs including alcohol, the #1 offender, or shut the frick up.
And oh, by the way, my simple advice would be just shut the frick up. Just shut up. Your ways are tired, your point of view is meaningless, and you live hollow fricking lives.

It's funny this gets brought up because half the time I get in a discussion with someone about this- someone who is totally against weed because it's illegal and "harmful to your well-being"- said person is shitfaced drunk and planning on driving home. Just my 2 cents.

No one has ever or will ever prove that smoking pot causes schizophrenia in everyone.

Does the term outlier mean anything to you Michael?
Posted on 11/1/14 at 10:55 pm to Futures Bleak
I do my share of drinking and would smoke a little reefer if I wasn't afraid of getting tested at work

I could look up the exact verse but in Genesis it says God has given to man all seed bearing plants and herbs for his use.

In 4000+ years of documented use of marijuana, there hasn't been a single death that was directly caused by it.
Please link a single unbiased clinical study that proves marijuana causes strokes, psych issues or cancer. Im eagerly awaiting the opportunity to read it.

If weed is a gateway drug then alcohol should absolutely be illegal because it is certainly used before and leads to weed, the coke then heroin then over doses and death.
I could just about guarantee every heroin addict or crackhead started off with alcohol, long before they ever thought about smoking a joint.

I'm only referring to people who view pot as being much worse than alcohol. Obviously there's nothing wrong with people who don't smoke pot but drink alcohol.
In high school every single one of my friends smoked...a lot of them moved on to heavier shite. It made the majority of them useless and unmotivated. I know I can't generalize across all pot smokers but I also can't help but be turned off by it. Me and my friends drink a lot but nobody smokes and I like it like that. Nothing against them, just not my crowd.

Alcohol is also one of the main reasons people end up overdosing when they mix it with cocaine or heroin(both of which, when used alone and in reasonable doses, aren't all that dangerous). It is far more dangerous than marijuana.

I gurantee you are around someone who smokes every day and you have no idea they do because you think smokers are spicolli. And y did u hang out with that crowd when younger if didnt like it snd out of every single friend you were onky one who made it?
