How Many People Actually Know the Facts About Marijuana?

Question by Hoots: How many people actually know the facts about Marijuana?
It seems a lot of people on here are against drugs (which is perfectly fine, everyone is entitles to their own opinion on the subject). However, I see a lot completly blantantly wrong information on the subject that really makes me sick. Such as it being a gateway drug (it’s not, alcohol is), it being harmful to health (aside from the act of smoking, its not), saying that it kills braincells (it doesn’t, although it does change brainwave patterns while intoxicated to encourage left brain activities, while decreasing right brain activities). I’m just curious if people have actually read legitemit (sp?) scientific studies on the subject and are educated in it’s effects on the body, not just listened to propaganda that has no basis in fact. Honestly, the only opinion I can usually agree on is that people shouldn’t start smoking it young, or if they aren’t mature to deal with the implications socially and legally that it can imply.

It does kill brain cells, it does ruin lungs, and it makes you high quickly, and it could lead to other drugs (that is the big thing right there). Compared to other drugs (acid, coke, ect…) it isn’t as bad, but it leads to other things.
