"A growing body of evidence now demonstrates that smoking marijuana can increase the risk of serious mental health problems," said Walters, whose official title is director of the Office of National Drug Control Policy.

One recent report, by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, found that adults who had used marijuana before age 12 were twice as likely to have experienced a serious mental illness in the past year as those who began smoking it after 18.

Among early users, 21% reported suffering a serious mental health problem, compared with 10.5% among those who started smoking marijuana later. The study was based on interviews with almost 90,000 adults.

What a bunch of bull sh!t spin by the Bush administration. Where in the study did they determine that those who used marijuana at a young age did not already suffer from mental disorders or were not in a high-risk categories due to family history and external stimulus?

Where in the study does it suggest that youth who suffer from mental disorders are in a category of people who are more likely to use marijuana to self medicate? Where does it mention that marijuana is the safest way to treat anxiety disorders?

You see how Bush and his SS put spin on "scientific" studies to work for their fascist agenda? Who will get the word out that this media campaign is bogus and is a flat out lie? Who can combat the fascists' endless resources and ability to manipulate the media?

I know many here might think I'm a hot head or inmature, but can't you see my point? Can't you see the idiots sitting on their sofa at home listening to this propaganda and drinking it in? It's a brave new world

While I may see your point, what I dont see is how this belongs in "cannabis and the law". This is not an appropriate topic for this forum, as it really has nothing to do with the law itself

In the name of dead horses everywher, oppy, cease and desist. I don't think a single poster on this site feels differently then you do about the government's use of propoganda to fuel the Drug War.

One point that you do need to understand is that Dubya did not come up with this, though. Every president, democrat and republican, has supported this for the past 40 years.

Amen! While Bush hasn't exactly been progressive in his approach to marijuana, every recent president has propagated the myths of marijuana's danger. Its not as if Georgie came in and suddenly made it illegal, after Clinton legalized or something.
