Pot use has pretty much doubled. There was a whole thread about it.

RIP Steve. You will be missed.
Yes, it can cause deadly heart arrhythmia.

I have news for you. If pot use has doubled from where it was before the current legalization movement, then close to 100% of the public would be using it, lol.

I cannot believe you still use that as part of your propaganda. You really are starting to look silly.

Go down to the nitty gritty of it and see what you find:

Potheads - aren't going to beat, rape, rob you. We will just laugh. I mean THEY will just laugh lol!

Crackheads - they will do all of the above

Alcoholics - They will do those things as well in a protracted way over many years thus spreading the misery out like butter and jam and then blame themselves.

Heroin Junkies - this is the saddest of cases because they are often the most broken down emotionally beaten people you will EVER meet. Perhaps someone in their lives should have tried to tell them that smoking some weed to deal with the mental noise in their heads would be better would be a good thing. We all love to tune out. Some of us can do that with ease because we can afford vacations, spas, massages, etc. Truth is HUMANS need to be able to tune out the noise every once in a while, it's the reason alcohol is so popular, and even cigarettes (thank you ecigs, I haven't smoked a dirty cig in like a year and a half now!)

Love - ?

Sex - ?

Did the Miami pothead laugh when he cannibalized the face of Mr Poppo, a homeless man?

That was most certainly synthetics involved. You can call them bath salts, spice, whatever you want to call them. Also, 99% of people who smoke that crap aren't going to do things like that either. Are you going to get rid of alcohol because someone beat their wife or kids in a drunken rage too?

Oh Please, the majority of my friends smoked weed in high school or college, weed wasnt legal then, it isnt legal now(outside of 3 states, none of which i have been in).

How does making weed legal somehow swing the gate open ?????

Synthetics are not the same thing as the original or even the hybrids they sale now. Also when did they make marijuana legal in Florida?

They didn't find synthetic drugs in him, they found marijuana.
