Pot smokers.

[Belacqua]

First off, let me make it perfectly clear, POT SHOULD BE LEGAL!

Having said that, it still should have the same regulations of alcohol in not driving while high.

But outside that, I do hate some stupid arguments that pot is 100% harmless like a kitten. If you smoke anything, that can damage your lungs long term. But with driving, it can impair your reaction time. So is bullshit to claim people cannot die from smoking pot.

The argument is "It doesn't make you as crazy as alcohol or meth". On average maybe. But I have had known a few people in my life who smoked pot and got just as nuts as drunkard trying to start a fight at a bar.

In a very literal sense, anything you ingest in excess, if it exceeds your body's ability to process it, can become toxic, EVEN WATER.

Point of this post is that every so often I see posts on social media that Pot is as benign as a kitten or puppy.

I just saw another "Pot's shit never stinks" post. Pot should be legal, but I get a lip twitch when people act like pot is an all loving god with no flaws.

I smoked it pretty regularly my first two years of college. In that dorm it would have been strange not to. Then I moved out, though, and didn't miss it at all. And of course I've been in Japan for 30+ years now, and it's not available here in any safe way. They're a lot stricter. 

There was one guy in my dorm who liked it WAY too much and bombed out of college in his second semester. I didn't know enough whether this was a cause or a symptom -- he might have been self-medicating for something else, or numbing his hatred of college or something. But the pot surely didn't help.

That kind of ambiguity seems to be a topic for a number of people. A lot of criminals and crazy people smoke it, but whether it's cause or effect is hard to say. I do think that a lot more objective research would be reasonable.

This guy thinks that it drives a small percentage of smokers crazy:
