yet alcohol is such a sane drug

yes the stress of not getting it is mental.

That explains Beto.

Anyone with even half a brain can see it causes mental illness.

Will never be legal in UK until 50 years time.

👀

no shit sherlock

After spending so much time for promoting legalization of it...

I miss the good old days where you could get an Oz of solid and happily smoke for 2 weeks without this nonsense.

Any predispositions to mental health issues can certainly be unleashed in some who use cannabis. Not so prevalent when you’re over thirty. It’s obv fine if you’re not affected but a bollox if you are.

Ooh so does stress, being unloved, homelessness, greed, ....

I’m guessing these “scientists” work for the people who brought us Benzodiazepines.

Rubbish.

The THC CBD and CBA levels need to measured. High Strength Skunk is like a top shelf spirit. You wouldn't drink top shelf spirits on a session. We need to legalise and regulate.

So does high dose of alcohol, sugar (specially young children), salt and fast food. Personally when I buy weed I buy the strong variation, because I need less of it in a single spliff. This also means less micro dust that is the result of combustion.

Mommy and Daddy had a glass of beer back in the '60/'70s. Now they fill the same glass with 80% alc. vol. Stroh Rum. And you don't expect problems?

Legalise regulate and tax simples

This is completely accurate - it happened to me. Now that I am no longer using cannabis, my psychosis has gone and I'm living a (fairly) normal, clear-headed life. When corporate 🇨🇦 got involved in cannabis sales/production, and raised the THC levels, things started to go wrong.

It should be noted that this was a small study that relied on self reported use as data. Further, I believe a study of mental disorders induced by heavy alcohol use would have shockingly worse findings. CannabisCommunity CannabisNews CannabisMedicinal norml

So do 80 hour work weeks.

So does drinking 🤷

Did those 30% also drive cars? Maybe driving causes mental heath issues? Did they drink apple juice? Did they look at the sun?

IF u are genetically pre disposed to have mental health problems then yes. funnily enough ,taxes,rent,bills,basically the cost of living &the stresses attached are all able to induce mental health problems for us all but no ones condoning those things are they? DoubleStandards

High-strength hard to get it! no worries.

They guessed at potency based on the name of the strain? That’s a big no right there. Also who knows what else could be in or on this weed (ie pesticides or other drugs)....also 900 people. Idk I’ll take my chances 👌

And still nowhere near as dangerous as alcohol

Pretty obvious this

Here some 🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪 see smoking cannabis ain’t harming no one. Free 🍪🍪
