    This is not your grandpa's weed:

    Young people, having psychotic episodes? That can't lead to anything bad, huh?

    I'm guessing it will lead to more calls for gun control when one of these psychotic episodes leads to a shooting.

    Bullshit. Pot is harmless, with no lasting physical or societal effects whatsoever.

    It's an herb, man. It's totally natural.

    Young people who drink excess coffee die at a higher rate than young people who don't drink coffee:

    The notion that high THC pot is new is a myth. It's been around since at least the early 70s.

    It may not have been may grandpa's weed, but it was my dad's.

    Hell, yes. Today's Afghan skunk was 1978's Hawaiian, etc.

    Biggest change has been pinpointing exactly what particular strains do for the user.
