Please, please, by all means stop your ignorance about cannabis right now. Get educated about it. Have you ever heard of Irvin Rosenfeld? I trust that you are totally clueless who that is.

Because people are hypocrites.

Then I gather you are totally clueless about the four legal federal medical marijuana patients.

Last time I gave you a list of at least 20 medical studies which proved cannabis is a major contributor to mental illness, and I also provided studies which proved it caused arrythmia and heart attacks.
Where is your proof that the rate of mental illness in the United States is significantly higher since the 1960s?

Cigarettes and alcohol are even worse to the human body. Yet there is no crusade in this country to ban those substances. Meanwhile, since you feel marijuana is so profoundly harmful to the human body, why did a former DEA judge say this, "Marijuana, in its natural form, is one of the safest therapeutically active substances known to man."

A college buddy of mine visited me and we spent a night in South Beach, Miami, where he smoked some pot in his hotel room. After ten minutes he found himself wandering around the streets of Miami in his underwear, and he had no idea why he had left the room and how to find his way back to the hotel.

And if you remember about a year ago, a pot smoker in Miami ate the face off a homeless man.

The list goes on......
Sounds like he took ambien, too.

You're obviously totally clueless as to who Irvin Rosenfeld is.

In ciggs there is ammonia among a few other things

Mental illness in the U.S. has been socialized.

S'matter, you got no social skills?
