Yes, most sites like that post biased unfactual information. or embellish the truth.
"According to a National Household Survey on Drug Abuse, kids who frequently use marijuana are almost four times more likely to act violently or damage property. They are five times more likely to steal than those who do not use the drug."
that information itself is misleading and biased. You cant get any factual statistics, Thats like saying poor people are more likely to steal. There are certain race groups more prone to violence, that may also smoke marijuana. Its not marijuana that makes them do the crimes, its where they come from and who they are.
Can anybody on this forum tell me the last time they smoked a joint, and said to themselves, Damn i should go knock over a fucking 7/11. Its just not like that.
"there has been a sharp increase in the number of marijuana-related emergency room visits by young pot smokers."
Who? are they dead? no. the only motherfucker that called 911 was that cop who thought he was dead after eating some brownies.
