I have been an extreme drug user since the age of 14, very young. They ruined my life as i battled heroin addiction for 4 years(Clean now). I was always the guy standing up for weed and hash, "it's harmless, legalise it!".
The fact of the matter is this, THC works totally fine with some people and totally horrific for others. When i say paranoid, i don't mean your average paranoia from dope. I'm talking about intense, borderline schizophrenic episodes. 1 in 25 people can have this reaction to average THC and it is UNREPAIRABLE. They will become schizophrenic indefinitely. The weed these days has been report at 42x the average THC contents. Can you imagine what would happen if a new users who are in the 1 in 25 group smoked this shit? it would ruin there life for ever. Please reasearch this there has been countless murders, suicides, attacks and stuff and people need to be more aware.
It's not a case of "they shouldn't smoke it then" because it's too late the damage would already be done. There is no way to tell who has this gene. So coming from someone who has likely had more drug experiences than anyone on this forum, that is a terrible thing by the way, i tell you this.
Weed should never be legalized for that reason alone and that is exactly why it isn't legal in the UK, the US is slightly different. Yes it is totally harmless for 80% of people but the other 20% can be damaged for a life time. So is it really okay to say "smoke bud not drugs?" I don't think so. Either be responsible with drugs or don't do them at all because IMO the first guy in this quote is the worst weed smoker, a NED-Non Educational Delinquent.
