Do you all think this is true
Its from www.councilonalcoholism.net/marijuana.htm According to the Drug Abuse Warning network in 2002, There were 119,472 marijuana admissions into hospital emergency rooms....In 2001 there were 255,394 admissions of people into drug treatment programs who stated that marijuana was their primary drugs of addiction.
And how about this NutJob in Mississippi- A bill dubbed "Smoke a Joint, Lose a Limb" would punish marijuana smokers by amputating an arm or a leg. The legislation, submitted in January 1998 by republican state representative Bobby Moak(I hope he got voted out)provides the the convicted person and court "must agree on which body part shall be removed" http://pdxnorml.org/980198.html#nwn http://www.geocities.com/capitolhill...19/crazy3.html Just curious of what people think about issues like these...

To answer your first paragraph, this is bullshit statistics created by twisting the facts and conveniently editing certain information. These statistics are indeed true, but anybody who enters an emergency room while under the influence of marijuana qualifies as a "marijuana admission". so if I smoke a joint and cut off my toe, crash my car, fall off a ladder, or anything else, groups like DARE can say "this many people went to the emergency room because they smoked weed!". it's crap.
as for this second paragraph, don't worry. maybe this guy's a fanatic, but we're not living in a small pakistani village here. no part of US law, the constitution, or the bill of rights allows amputation of a limp as punishment. in fact this form of punishment was used by the British as a means of compenstation for unpaid taxes, a big reason the US launched the war of independence in the first place. to institute such a law is simply impossible, we're not even allowed to do this to pedophiles,rapists, and murdurers. every facet of american law prevents this.

There just made so that stoners can have a laugh at how fucked up the war on drugs is. Or is that just me?
