Wow this thread grew quickly.

One in six teenagers who regularly smoke the drug become dependent

Maybe so but how many that try alcohol become dependent on it? We should note, dependent is not the same as addicted. It's a vague term.

Very few things you ingest is "harmless". O.K.

Nice, you managed a strawman argument and a personal attack into one sentence.

Nah, I'm pretty sure the prohibitionists were already mentally ill. Pot is just their current focal point.

Personal attack? Like when you call people criminals on these threads? What's good for the goose.... No strawman, and no valid proof or guarantee that cannabis causes mental illness in all those who partake in it. I'm sure that we can also find a study that too much sugar or caffeine intake causes mental illness too.

Why can't you answer why you are against the legalization of marijuana? This entire thread is about marijuana, how on earth can you consider it deflection?
