    They're definitely not equal but honestly I do think that the idea that marijuana becoming more available might lead to worse mental health outcomes for people is at least credible.

      Agree, I'm a big weed guy but the absolute explosion in frequency and amount of weed smoked that's considered normal today vs 10 years ago gives me a lot of pause.

        10 years ago I'd be the only person walking around my neighborhood at night with a joint. now i feel like I'm the only one who isn't lmao. I quit a couple years back but I see and smell it everywhere I walk at night

          Entire parking lot smells like weed every break at work. I'm not saying all like 400 on shift smoke but it's for sure a majority.

      I think adults will be fine, but it's probably not great to flood a developing brain with any chemicals it doesn't need. Don't do drugs, kids!

      possibly, but lead is orders of magnitude worse and shouldn't be equated in any way to a drop in IQ by marijuana.
