What evidence do you need? There are many risk factors, it can cause brain damage and memory loss, possibly anxiety if you use it for a long time. I once thought it would be nice to legalize the drug but i asked my self the question when i have children do i want my doctor prescribing a drug that is heavily abused by many potheads in this nation? At the end of the day i think it sends the wrong message to children or teenagers who are most vulnerable.
Brain damage? I dont know what you've been using to acheive that level of idiocricy but I doubt any amount of pot could do that to you.
I among countless other australians use cannabis on a daily basis with next to no negative side effects. And considering your very flawed arguement here, I'd feel its safe to say that my intelligence far exceeds yours, cannabis abuse and all
Anxiety and other mental conditions are not directly caused by cannabis abuse, they however MAY (big if there) be triggered by use. But for that to happen the condition has to be pre-existing but is usually underlying and is only brought out by the cannabis. And that is all a very rare occurance.
Memory loss is a given, you get past that quickly and its only tempoary, I find that after two days most symptoms of abuse start to subside, and after a full week of absinance all symtoms have entirely dissapeared. If any of those sympoms manifest to a level where its in any way debhilitating to the idividual, then the level of use must be well past excessive and getting towards to the point of stupidity. In which case, its no longer the plants fault, its the idiot that pushes it that far.
All substances have that limit where you use it to much, it will have un-desirable effects. But this is more true for other legal substances, alcohol can destroy the body and mind in a single binge. Nicotine is highly addictive and to this day remains the only chemical I've ever had issues ceasing use. Of all the evils in the world cannabis would have to be one of the most innocent.
Its more harmless than panadol, yet I still remain a criminal for using it.
Fuck that flawed argument you put forward, thinking like that is what puts innocent people in jail. Good people shouldn't have to hide for the sake of enjoying themselves in a safe and responsible manner.
