					<description><![CDATA[&lt;i&gt;&quot;“Why would I have a problem with that any more than somebody who drinks alcohol?” Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC)&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

Because the net is an increase in the number of people UI who possess and handle guns? Because violating federal and state law makes one a criminal? If Senator, you don&#039;t like the law, change it. Encouraging people to ignore the law is not part of your charge to uphold the Constitution.

OTH, promoting an increase in the risk to life is always a good thing for a society.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[33 years in FD/EMS. 
Fact - drunks are more dangerous than MJ users.  Time and time again the drunks win the LOSER trophy. I had 1000&#039;s of alcohol calls. Injuries  to self and others, They damage property roads and most everything else OH and want to fight usually. 
Fact - We hardly had any calls related to MJ unless the stoner acquired some &quot;angel dust&quot; or treated with something MJ. 
The lawmaker is correct.  
Alcohol is way more dangerous than MJ.]]></description>

The libertarian echo chamber doesn&#039;t want to hear truth that contradicts their &quot;ath,eis&quot;tic religious faith&quot;. 

They think they are just being more correct than the rest of us.

They say &quot;trust the science.&quot; Weed is safe and healthy for you. 

Just like they said &quot;trust the science.&quot; 

&quot;Trust the experts&quot;, on Covid19. 

Why should I trust what the libertarian/leg:@,liz@t,i0n crowd???]]></description>

Store bought p-o-t today is around 20–30% T-H-C vs. about 2% in the ’70s–’80s. People who got high back then and say it’s harmless don’t realize how different today’s stuff is. This is a massive, real‑world experiment with almost no high‑quality long‑term data. Higher‑T_H_C products carry greater risk of psychosis and c-a-n-n-a-b-i-s use disorder (addiction, impairment, distress). But the seller$, and the taxman, don’t tell you that.

Cannabis Use Disorder Emergency Department Visits and Hospitalizations and 5-Year Mortality.

&quot;Importance: Cannabis use disorders (CUD) are associated with adverse health effects, including mental disorders and motor vehicle collision-related injuries. However, little is known about whether CUDs are associated with increased mortality risk. ...
...

Conclusions and relevance: In this cohort study of all residents of Ontario, Canada, individuals with incident hospital-based CUD care were at markedly increased risk of death compared with the general population. These findings suggest important clinical and policy implications, given global trends toward cannabis legalization and market commercialization accompanied by increasing cannabis use and CUDs.
