Look at the groups these studies are targetting. Young people and people who smoke 15 joints a day. Obviously these people are asking for mental illness. But most smokers don't smoke 15 joints a day.

Plus the biggest thing causing the mental illness is poorly grown skunk by criminal gangs - a result of prohibition - which has high levels of THC but low levels of CBD - the other important compound in Cannabis, and a natural andti-psychotic, anti-anxiety agent.

Legalised Cannabis with age restrictions and proper grown weed would have a beneficial effect on the so called psychosis link which is not yet a fact accepted by all scientists.

Plus Cannabis has far more medicinal uses that outweigh this one psycosis thing.

If there is enough evidence to support its use in certain medical conditions - that should be allowed - but that doesn't mean it should be legalised for recreational purposes - they are two totally different things.

With.

I smoke when I can get my hands on it. I don't have a regular dealer up here and my landlord would kick us out if he knew we were smoking an "illegal drug".

Prohibition only makes things worse. It didn't work with alcohol, it's not going to work with weed.

Sorry you cannot be hooked to cannabis. You can love it and want it all the time, but it is not an addictive substance.

At my last job, a group of us went out to smoke weed during our lunch break. We were out of sight of our colleagues, but my ex who was still bitter about our breakup decided to be a snitch and told our supervisor.

Professor Nutt was also lambasted for publishing a report detailing how equasy is more damaging than Ecstacy even though he was 100% right.

Well as I don't smoke - and only occasionally have a drink - your point is what exactly!

Personally I don't believe that if people do any of those things to excess - the NHS should foot the bill for resulting illnesses or conditions. It is bogged down as it is - there simply isn't enough money. They should take out insurance to cover any medical costs in the future.

Dont see why anyone would like to smoke in general.
Just wait for a cold day, and you can see your breath its just as good.

2 wrongs don't make a right! Even IF smoking and drinking pose more damage to health than smoking Cannabis - doesn't mean that the risks of smoking Cannibis - are therefore acceptable!

Yes but the risks go down considerably with legalisation.
