I can't believe anyone can be stupid enough to think cannabis is dangerous enough to merit criminalization.
What you can or cannot believe isn't important, the truth is that canabis can have a devastating effect on the developing teenage mind. Even if you don't consider that enough to warrant criminalization, that does not justify insulting those of us who do.
I wonder how you arrive at that "truth".
Simple, I saw it happen to someone close to me.
Even the arch-enemy of cannabis, Nora Volkow, head of NIDA, admits that they can't prove it because association is not causation.
Unfortunately you can't ethically perform the experiments that would prove this in the way that you would like. The fact is that a lot of medical evidence comes from looking at the results of long-term population studies which can show correlation but can never prove causation.
