What do you say to misinformed people?

I think we're a bit confused here. People keep saying the word "opinion", but we're talking misinformation. I guess I've never looked into how weed affects brain cells, but my example is... an older guy at my work:

"All those medical marijuana people condemn cigarettes, when weed is 20 times worse for you."

That isn't true. It's not his opinion, it's misinformation. I run into it all the time, and I never know how to respond. Obviously I don't at work, because no one wants to be the woman who knows all about weed... If it's to someone who I can freely talk to it about, I gently try to bring it up. If not, well, never helps to make people angry.

Well try to talk sense to people who make no sense, and tell them they are misinformed, and you'd be there for a while and stuck in an argument.
Tell them it is their opinion and that you have yours in how to run your life and it might stop!
Opinion? I will vote on that!
 
some people are just anti drug and no matter what you say to them theyr gunna have a closed mind. Moat people like this think that weed is the same as stuff like crack or heroin and its addictive blah blah. so if they have an open mind they probably have already tried pot and made their decision about it.
But really, i dont think there is much you can say to a person like this.
 
I once took like atleast a half an hour to explain to this person who was misinformed all about weed. It started with them saying shit like "It kills your braincells" and ended with them saying "That's interesting"
 
LMAO, ignorance cracks me up. Some people will believe what they want to, regardless of facts, so don't even waste your energy on them. Just make sure they don't call the feds on you ;-)

Love you all.

I never seem to be able to convince anyone of their own ignorance when it comes to the topic of recreational drug use.
 
yeah man there really is nothing to say in response to that level of ignorance
just make sure you don't end up in those sorts of situations in the future...
