    No, you inarticulate potato. Did you never take a secondary science course? The supposedly unchanged nature of hemp is the evidence you used to support your central claim: that it is reasonable to expect every member of the human species of any age to know precisely how marijuana will affect them. This claim is belied by the inarguable fact that mind-altering drugs (e.g. hallucinogens, psychotropics, narcotics, anxiolytics and stimulants) all have wildly varying effects on different people due to the vastly different neurochemistry of individuals, and thus you cannot predict how it will affect you until you try it, no matter how long your cultural antecedents have been toking, as I stated in my original comment. Even cannabis, which you claim has no lasting side effects, can cause long-term psychosis and significantly worsen pre-existing mental health disorders. Not often, but that it is a documented effect with even a 0.5% incidence rate is sufficient for some basic modicum of caution. You cannot know whether you will be affected until you actually try it, and while long-term use and high dosage are risk factors for the above, they are not prerequisites. Pretending like cannabis is some fucking panacea is dangerously irresponsible, and accusing anyone who points out the illogic of your repeated exaggerations and leaps of reasoning of being with DARE is so pitifully childish. Ultimately, though, I’ve been responding to you ever since your kill count strawman not because I think I will convince you, who have demonstrated roughly the neuroplasticity of a chunk of granite, but because if someone makes the mistake of reading this far, then they will see the complete argument, and I leave it to them to decide for themselves.

    So, to put those big, scary words in simpler terms for you:

    You say all people know what weed do to them.

    I say people different. I say some people happy drunk or sad drunk. I say some people kill selves when on prozac. Others don’t kill selves BECAUSE on prozac. Some people eat big weed gummy, enjoy. Other people eat little weed gummy, big sad, trap in body. Vomit brains out. Maybe go crazy for a couple months. No can predict.

    You is wrong.

      That’s a whole lot of words to avoid saying “you’re completely right, marijuana has been an intoxicant forever and nobody has ever died from it”

        If anyone reading this had any remaining doubt as to the precise intellectual capacity (or lack thereof) of the prior commenter, let the utter lack of reading comprehension, demonstrated perfectly in the response above, speak for itself. I have nothing further to say to this imbecile that has not already been said, and am content with simply tagging them “inarticulate potato”, and recommend that the masochistic readers who have made it this far should do the same.

          You’re trying to appeal to an audience that isn’t here, and if they were here and could read they’d dunk on your dumb ass at least as hard as I have
