Default Heavy Marijuana Use Linked to Memory and Learning Deficits

No, the DEA is nowhere near this research. Also note that they define heavy use as 4x/week, not 4x/day like someone I used to know. This research sounds about right, given my own experience.

Smoke 2 joints and read the study

That said, I still think all drugs should be legal.

So?

Tobacco usage leads to Larynx, Oral, and lung cancer

Nicotine found in tobacco is addictive

Alcohol does awful things to your liver

Sugar can lead to diabetes

ITs insane to let anybody use any of these right? I mean just look at the terrible things that will happen to you if you do!!!!!

But he said he thinks all drugs should be legal. He's not making an argument that it should be illegal. (This sort of thing should be in SMP, though)

Since there is no argument in the op then I dont understand the point of this thread. Everyone knows that pot messes with your memory. I didnt need a scientific study to tell me that many people I know are burnouts.

I believe the question is whether or not it's any of your business.

legalize it and let the gov tax the hell out of it! id rather see that money go into welfare than to see drug dealers killing people over it (it will also save us money in the prison system). but those who choose to use it ought to think about that before using it the same way as alcohol.
