You seem to have much familiarity with how dopers behave. I guess we run in different circles, I've not known anyone that focused that exclusively on one sort of intoxicant.

Since I live in Colorado people are much more open about their cannabis consumption. Of all the regular cannabis consumers I know, none are into meth. Probably a little less than half smoke tobacco, and most who do want to quit. I don't know any pot smokers who drink, but I do know some drinkers who smoke. Colorado is a very health concious state in general, and as such you find a lot of people who are cannabis consumers only avoiding truly harmful or addictive substances.

Mark my words: All of you will get hooked on meth because of your pot-smoking ways! It just stands to reason.

........"avoiding harmful addictive?" Seriously?


Hardly.....this may be news to many, but;
Marijuana is many times more harmful and dangerous a carcinogen than tobacco.

The UCSF and University of Alabama at Birmingham say you are wrong. What else do you have?

Hardly......do you not realize when reading, that is an incomplete and skewed, "OP-ED piece / study" - (provided it's even true.?)

Perhaps you missed that?

Journal of the American Medical Association is, as quoted, "OP-ED piece / study"? I wonder if the AMA, while in their extensive peer review process, also found it to be "incomplete and skewed"?

Perhaps you missed that?

How could I? "even if it is from JAMA," it is an incomplete and skewed, "OP-ED piece / study" - (provided it's even true.?)

Perhaps you too, missed those cogent tidbits?

May be you did not even read the linked JAMA study in the so called Op-Ed piece. I'd love to compare the results against the study that you are getting your information from but ......OH yea, you didn't give one.

Perhaps you missed that?????

You mean the 20-year study with over 5,000 participants? Surely you can see that it's just the mother of Op-Ed pieces...
