Decriminalization - Cannabis During Pregnancy

[psychoslice]

Thousands, huh?
There is also a bunch that say it's not bad, and even beneficial.
There is a ton of research that has been poorly done, such as the test involving the monkeys who smoked pot, except, they were essentially gassed to death and died from oxygen deprivation and that fact wasn't discovered for some time.

Because it's incredibly rare for that to happen, and you definitely want to kinda get to know someone before accepting an illegal substance from them.

What a lame excuse.

What a lame excuse.

Pointing out flaws in research is not a lame excuse. It is all part of the critical debate, even if you don't like it.

Logic presumes that if pre-natal exposure to intoxicants such as alcohol and tobacco poses proven health risks to the fetus, then exposure to pot would likely pose similar risks to a child's health and development.

Logic also says that tobacco is especially bad, and alcohol is bad in large amounts, and it doesn't take much for it to be a large amount to a developing fetus.
But the risks of marijuana are so small and negligible that the tests should be asking are there any risks for the fetus, rather than beginning with an assumption of risks. It's not even like Tylenol, which is known for causing liver damage.

What a lame excuse.

Me being correct is not a lame excuse. There are many studies involving pot that weren't properly conducted, which is the case with many drugs. The study that found the "deadly addictiveness" in mice, when corrected to include a proper control and experiment group, was not so deadly. Unlike the original when the mice preferred the heroine over water and died, the second experiment involved a control group similar to conditions of the original, and the results started to be the same. However, in the experiment group, where the mice had things to do and other mice to socialize with, the heroine wasn't a problem; actually, those of the control overcame their addiction when exposed to the experiment.
With drugs in general, but especially with weed, you have lied to. The facts are there are a ton of things more dangerous you can do, and as far as recreational use goes, when used responsibly it is fairly safe, as is psilocybin and peyote.
Or was you referring to my statement that the risks of laced pot are very low, and you shouldn't be getting it from people you don't know anyways?
Would you get your schizophrenic meds from just anyone (there is a risk of buying pills that aren't the real thing when you buy them off the black market), or would you get them from someone more trustable, such as a pharmacist?

Agree 100% and just to add to this, this goes both ways. I am sure there are poorly done studies that draw the opposite conclusion. However, with that said, just because you do not agree with the conclusion does not mean that the study should be thrown out.
