Agreed, though I haven't used pot as long as you have, I definitely haven't noticed any of the negative effects that were mentioned by the other tempers.TrolleyDave said:I've smoked pot for 20 years now and never suffered any of the things being pushed forward here. I've never robbed anyone, never stolen to buy it, I can go weeks and months without smoking it without turning into a clucking mess, I've never snapped and shot up a McDonalds. As for insomnia, I've suffered it my whole life. When I was younger I'd go 2 or 3 days at a time without being able to sleep. When smoking a couple of bongs/joints a night I sleep deeply, regularly and always feel refreshed in the morning. As for it giving you cancer, living in modern society is more damaging to your lungs and genetics. Ever seen someone die from sitting in a room full of pot smoke? Now what would happen if you sat in a garage with the car running?
It hasn't made me stupid, it hasn't made me lazy and I'm definitely not dependent. Hell, I've met people more hooked on Facebook than me or my mates have ever been on pot. If you have an addictive or co-dependent personality it doesn't matter what the trigger, it could be Pokemon games, cheeseburgers, crack or even an abusive partner, it's the personality type that's at fault.
As for pot causing insomnia, that's the purest dose of bullshit I've heard in my life. Everyone I know who smoes pot says they sleep better after smoking it.
And the cancer thing too, petrol fumes and cigarette smoke are more harmful than pot smoke.
