Marijuana can lead to psychosis, cancer, COPD, Emphysema, etc.
But those that want to get high use it as escapism from reality and as such are complete losers.
the exact opposite your brother would be alive and well if he had been only a pot smoker, not an alcohol drinker.. I know my brother was almost killed by alcohol!!! but he smokes pot and is just fine and is a workaholic with two kids.. see the difference.???
the reason I bring it up is because you are a big hypocrite!!!! you would give a pot smoker walking papers from his employment, you own words, if caught with thc in his system but you would give an alcohol drinker the green light as long as it does not affect there productivity.. can you see the pure hate hypocrisy against weed..
and by the way burnt bacon can cause cancer!!! the coloring in soda can cause cancer!!! toys from china can cause cancer, just about everything can cause cancer..

But I never expected burnouts to realize the distinction.
I just don't even understand this post. I'm no burnout by the way. I don't use the stuff. Clean and sober, of all substances, that's me...
Are you implying that no one makes big $$ off of alcohol?
I'm thinking the 4 million dollar pricetag on Superbowl commercials and how many of them were bought up by beer companies, proves you wrong. (Loved the one called "puppy love" btw, cute as heck.)
Are you suggesting that in an environment of prohibition, organized criminals would not attempt to make money off of alcohol because it is "not a cash crop?"
Ever seen any movie about prohibition era gansters, like ever? Ever seen Legends of the Fall? Ever heard of the dudes with tommy-guns running booze in like Chicago, or "speakeasies" or any of that? Pretty sure that the moment alcohol became illegal, the black market stepped up to supply to that demand, in a BIG way.
It might not necessarily be a "crop" strictly speaking, but the cash is, was, and always will be there, since cash is nothing but a symbol of human valuation and demand...
