Legalizing Marijuana: Pot Legalization is Revealing Unintended Consequence
By Markian Hawryluk, The Bulletin “When have we ever as a society benefited from a sin tax?” Shemelya, with National Marijuana Initiative asked. “Look at the models for alcohol and tobacco and what they cost every year. They’re not even revenue neutral, and neither will this drug be. It’ll end up costing states more than they’ll ever take in, in tax receipts.”

Pro Pueblo Colorado: filmed at Rawlings Library
Published on Apr 5, 2017 “January 2014, after legalization of marijuana, social service agencies in Pueblo Colorado saw an increase in out of state individuals and families (with children) requesting shelter and services. Many of them had severe mental and physical problems. Since the voters approved the continuation of the sale of recreational marijuana, yet the harms of the drug culture continue to impact the community, a new group has formed, Pro Pueblo CO. Colorado voted to legalize, promote, commercialize, and normalize marijuana. The marijuana industry produces high potency products that are designed in deceptive forms to disguise use. These products are highly accessible in our communities. Pueblo, Colorado has experienced the negative consequences of this new law. The harms and the costs are minimized by the marijuana industry, their investors, and their promoters.”–Reported by Aubree Adams, who does not represent Pro Pueblo Co., but does support their mission.

Transcription: Psychosis and Drug Links
Drug use is a key component to the onset of psychosis in teenagers. Most teenagers don’t recognize this fact. It isn’t possible to actually determine the precise amount of risk that the use of marijuana or other hallucinogenic substances have. If you think about it, these substances are designed to make you hallucinate. In many people who do them for recreational or because of peer pressure, the have a transient experience, and then return to normal reality. I take care of young people that have psychotic illnesses, and some people feel that if they use these substances, their capacity to discern reality, stops. They continue to have hallucinations that they can’t get rid of. I would really ask people to consider delaying the use of substances as long as they can. As your brain matures, it seems less vulnerable to this particular risk that marijuana and other hallucinogens give, to some small, but real percentage, of teenagers.

Steven Crowder interviews Phyllis Bonafice, MD, neuropsychiatrist of Ann Arbor, MI
Dr. Boniface explains how marijuana use causes brain harms despite how millennials consider pot as a harmless pleasure. She discusses the decreased perception of pot as a risk amongst high school and young adults but the data of concern is million of young people are using not just weekly but daily as it’s becoming now the norm. Dr Bonafice says her population she treats people with psychiatric disorders (anxiety, mood disorders) even a little bit of marijuana throws them a relapse. Dr Bonafice states marijuana is a psychoactive drug and the THC property induces psychosis more.
