All mass murderers in NZ were mentally ill, and all smoked pot. I can't locate a link to it, but it stands to reason with the extreme risk to mental health. This is where Norml blames the victim.
Care to address the more recent cancer study which has numerous citings in other medical publications, or does the Washington Post stand above those?
Edit: I'll just point out again that I'm not infavour of cannabis continued criminal status, only that some truth regarding the risk be acknowledged.

All mass murderers were pot smokers. Alcohol & cannibis both have an impact on mental health, the difference is Alcohol is known. Your denial as to the existant dangers inherant in the drug do your cause a great disservice.
Hows about the 41% increased risk of pyschosis.
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17662880Edit - That said treat pot as a health issue not a criminal one. But to me even violent offenders should be treated that way and prisons done away with entirely.

It's not tautological, the distinctions of which have meaning without which the conversation is lost.
Heterosexuality is a modern construct from 1892 and it varies considerably in todays society (not to mention the Greeks), so much so the Arabs often look gay to my eyes, with all of the kissing, hugging and hand holding, but that's not the case at all.
Russell if your going on parenting gender roles, that raises issues for solo, & same sex parents and of course the glass ceiling.
