So are you going to answer my question? Or just spit out bullshit that pot makes you dumb?

In 1974, Dr. Robert G. Heath, a researcher at Tulane University in New Orleans, reported that he had found proof that marijuana caused brain damage while experimenting on monkeys. Heath reported that rhesus monkeys smoking an equivalent of 30 joints a day began to atrophy and die after just 90 days. Autopsies revealed that the monkeys who had been exposed to the marijuana smoke had more dead brain cells than the control monkeys, who had not been exposed.

Is this proof enough?
does not dead brain cells = dumber?

30 joints a day began

1. 30 joints is far out of the scope of reality for i'd guess 90% of American marijuana users.

2. You have no knowledge of, or apparent interest in researching the rate the brain physically repairs itself.

"... The new cells and connections that we and others have documented may provide the extra capacity the brain requires for the variety of challenges that individuals face throughout life. Such plasticity offers a possible mechanism through which the brain might be induced to repair itself after injury or disease..."

Ya know Theldios, I am in no way flaming you, but your rationale is the exact reason why we live in a culture of hesistance and inefficiency. Stop fearing the unknown, learn to embrace change, and perhaps gain a little perspective on the way.

WOOSH..
that's the sound of the what my post was about going over your head.
What I posted comes directly from a published document about the effect that pot has on killing brain cells. the reason I posted it someone said prove it does. Thus I posted proof. In no way does that reflect my opinion on the subject. Perhaps a little reading comprehension would go a long way on your part yes?

Everyone in here bitching about pot needs to smoke a joint and/or shut the fuck up. You don't like hearing people talk about it as much as we don't like hearing people give us shit for having an alternative lifestyle to yours. Having a holier than thou atitude becuase you don't drink, smoke, snort, inject, eat red meat... whatever the fuck you don't do that you think is bad, telling someone else that it is bad or them isn't going to change shit.

Contrary to your belief, not all pot heads are fucking retarded, regarless of what studies you pull out of your ass. We know the effects, likely better than you because we have first hand experience. It is a choice that we make, and until my choices start inflicting physical harm on you, just sod off.

This was aimed at no one in particular, but I'm just tired of people pulling the "I'm better than you" card because they are different. We're all going to fucking die anyway, just do whatever it is that makes you happy.

This is kind of a stupid argument to have.
1. Marijuana is not anywhere near as harmful to your body as alcohol or cigarettes.
2. Marijuana has no real legitimate reason to be illegal. Was made illegal for a few factors. One of them being racism. Marijuana was known to be used by jazz musicians who were primarily black. The government did not want any kind of black movement becoming main stream culture.
Another reason it is illegal is that the alcohol and tabaco companies are the main financial contributers behind most anti-marijuana adds. NO shit alcohol companies don't want to compete with weed.
Another reason it is illegal is that multiple Politicians have used it to make advance their careers.
There are other reasons too that i wont go into, but do some research it may open your eyes.
There is no real viable reason why marijuana should be illegal, when we have alcohol which in my opinion has much worse affects on the people's actions, and on the human body. Whether or not you use marijuana, you can't deny that there is no legitimate reason why it is illegal. Like somebody posted earlier if we legalized it and taxed the shit out of it, it would make us money. Not only would the we get money from the taxes, but we would save on police, on fighting the drug cartels, and on prison.
