Here is my take on it.In my 48 years,I've seen some people who drink,kick the tar out of thier wives,and lose thier homes,and if that is not tragic enough,lose thier lives.I've never seen such behavior with people who I know smoke pot.My 2 cents.
That may be Joe, but the tragic part of pot and drugs imo is the scum bag sellers it supports. Not good people, many people killed and lives ruined because of them.

In my years, many working with teenagers, I've seen many families and lives destroyed from pot. Families in crisis for years. Impaired thinking keeps them from facing ordinary problems keeping them stuck in immaturity.

One of the first signs is sliding marks in school and that means not living up to potential. I've seen a suicide and psychotic episodes from kids smoking pot from bongs laced with other drugs
Your rolling the dice whenever you take a mind altering drug.
