While I am a heavy pot smoker myself and personally love the effects of it on me, but marijuana has certainly had negative effects on people. I think ruined would have to be clarified. There is good evidence to suggest heavy pot smoking can have a negative effect on both depression and schizophrenia.
Link? I've been a chronic, major depressive my entire life, and since my financial ruin, I haven't been able to afford my medical marijuana, and have only partaken in social situations. My depression has gotten progressively worse, and it's definitely due, in part, to the fact that I can't treat my various things, like insomnia, with marijuana. Would you rather I take synthetic sleep medication?

You'd be surprised? Seriously? An argument from ignorance?
Quote:Both my parents were heavy smokers when they were younger and are now pretty much anti-pot advocates for personal reasons of how it affected them. I wouldn't say their lives were 'ruined' by it, but they both regret all the time they wasted smoking pot.
And?
Quote:I'm all for legalization and love weed but some people view weed with too heavy of rose tinted glasses.
Would you care to show anything concrete to illustrate your assertions?
