Increasing evidence that pot use harms youngsters, up to the age of 20s.

Seems like state like Colorado is not concerned about it, as long as the excise taxes flow into their coffers.

There is insufficient research and data on the detrimental effect of marijuana, which should have been done before legalization. The denial that there is no evidence for damage is the same always used after a tragedy happens: they should say they don't know.

There is even a cooking class on TV now where chefs (overdecorated with tattoos) prepare dishes with THC in them.

    I've got to believe that if cigarette smoking is bad for you then pot smoking is at least as bad. Inhaling smoke of any type can be life threatening (just ask a Fireman) so pot by definition is bad for you.

      How do you want to die: lung cancer from smoking or permanent brain damage from pot use.

      Is the government saving people from themselves, as the left is wont to say?

      "We don't know what is good for us" - as Andrea Mitchell of NBC fame told us.

      By definition, it must mean that marijuana smoking if good for us.

      Dirty bastards...
