All you doctors who are saying marijuana causes all sorts of problems.....WHERE IS YOUR PROOF??????? I'm sick of everyone talking about the negative aspects but not having any scientific proof of it. And please don't give me the studies that INCLUDE cigarettes, i want MARIJUANA STUDIES ONLY!!! Because yes when you include cigarettes the risks are substantially higher. Please explain your basis for how marijuana effects you "emotionally, physically, and mentally". Also what are your withdrawal symptoms considered? Headache? Irritability? Oh you mean much like if you were to quit caffeine? Are all coffee addicts being harmed emotionally, physically, and mentally? You should do some ACTUAL RESEARCH on something before just jumping on the conforming social bandwagon.
