MISLEADING ARGUMENTS

"Marijuana is a potent neuro-toxin that if used excessively may lead
to severe and lasting psychosis." Did Dr. Coleman just watch Reefer
Madness? I'm not sure what Mr. Coleman's doctorate is in, but he
appears to be ignorant of the true nature of marijuana or the concept
of therapeutic ratio. Marijuana has one of the safest therapeutic
ratios of any substance, while alcohol has one of the worst. Mr.
Coleman would be hard pressed to find any legitimate physician or
pharmacologist that agrees that marijuana is a "potent neuro-toxin."
Alcohol is much more harmful for the individual and society in
general - ask any front-line ER doc, social worker or practicing
psychologist. For his argument to be consistent, we should go ahead
with both alcohol and nicotine, as well.
