So you think you know more than the medical mental health expert to whose article I linked? Really? Here I thought liberals were the ones who placed value in science. Obviously not.
That "article" you posted from about.com was hardly written by a mental health expert, and contained very little proven scientific material.
That's a synthetic drug - but I'm sure you knew that, right?
The point I'm trying make is that marijuana sold in Amsterdam passes safety and purity standards because it is legal. Most Americans who smoke weed buy it off the street, and who knows what that really is?

A good case for legalization... my state is already halfway there, and I only buy my "medicine" at state-approved facilities.
Oh, but your link really didn't go along with that point - it was about a synthetic (FAKE) drug, which is something they sell legally at head shops & the like. "Bad" marijuana on the streets is rare, and if they do rip you off, it's typically with oregano or lawn grass.
Just about everyone I know, including myself, smokes a good amount of pot (it's like beer around here) - and I don't know a single schizophrenic. Next!
Anecdotal evidence is not evidence at all...
I don't know a single rapist,does that mean there are no rapists????

People with schizophrenia probably did smoke pot at some point, just like a million others in the world... that doesn't make it the CAUSE of their illness, now does it?
It exacerbates the Schizophrenia...

They also reported the Arizona shooter wore a hooded sweatshirt and listened to an iPod, so can we assume those have a direct correlation to schizophrenia & murder??
The shooter seems to be mentally unbalanced.Pot is a drug that affects the mind,like alcohol.
If he was a heavy drinker you wouldn't be so quick to dismiss this,it seems you simply do not like the idea YOUR drug of choice DOES have side effects that CAN lead to serious mental problems....
The main problem with substance abusers is that they use the substance to deal with their emotions and problems, instead of working through them naturally and learning how to deal with them effectively and in an adult way.
Well what is interesting is that there there is no history of this guy showing up to any Palin rally or even reading any book written by a Conservative, but the liberals are hell-bent on trying to make conservatives the whole reason he committed his terrible acts - but there is a definite history of marijuana use - but since that isn't convenient to their agenda of censorship, the liberals claim nothing in his actual left-leaning pot head past could be related in any way.
