Dude, no need to freak.

Policywise, we probably 100% agree per Marijuana.

That being said hyperbole or iffy statements don’t help your cause at all.

And the absence of research is totally meaningful. Specifically, it means that we don’t know.

What you’re saying, in essence, is that the absence of research means that we positively know there ISN’T a link, and that simply isn’t true.

What of my statements is “hyperbole or iffy statements”? I made factual statements and cited my sources. Please be specific or stop ankle biting.

There has been a great deal of research on marijuana, and many of the major killers are fairly understood. Marijuana is not one of them, period, nor is it suspected as such.

That does not “prove” that no minor risks will be proven, but it is absurd to image that anything on the level of Tobacco and Alcohol will be discovered based upon what is known now. Why? Because there is no major reservoir of unknown deaths out there.
