Too all you potheads that want the whole world to get on board with your crap... If you have teenage kids, encourage them to smoke pot since it's so great. I bet the only ones who will are the bums who smoke with their kids already. The parents who think they are "cool". You got the mentality of a 12 year old that wants to fit in.
If you smoke, smoke, but shut up about it. Get your 215 and buy weed at the supply stores. That's as far as it should go.

Thus the reasons for the signs "keep off the grass"
Its a parents responsibility to explain the issues with things like MJ, alcohol, tobacco, sex, and everything else....
IF anything blame the parents not the substance...

Let's face it if alcohol is to be legalised it'll come with a booklet full of instructions and warnings
Sure the benefits are endless but it is still a very dangerous drug in the wrong hand or abused, there are a string of mental health issues linked to drinking it... It seems you have to either be medically fit to drink it in moderation or in your way out, people with certain health issues should avoid it altogether it can help people and it can also ruin people's life's
THC in high doses does cause panic attacks in some people... and extreme anxiety...

And in every one of those cases, isn't it true that the THC was used on the back of decades of professional negative propaganda surrounding it? Used with the knowledge that 100,000's of people are wasting away in prison due to falling foul of the legal issues surrounding it?
Of course some people are going to have extreme anxiety. A hell of a lot of time, effort and expense went into making sure they were always meant to.
If say in a hypothetical alternate reality, where almost everybody used THC as part of their everyday lives and NOT using THC was a criminal and jailable offence..i seriously doubt anyone would connect extreme anxiety and THC in any way other than the anxiety generated by being fearful of the law and the applied propaganda if you didn't want to use it.
Same thing, other way around.
