I know it frustrates you when I respond to your every point logically and nullify it. It doesn't really leave you any meaningful way to respond so in your mind you have nowhere to go but trolling tantrums.

Oh gosh Kwai Chang Caine, you kung fu make me raff.
Pot is bad for the brain although there is no possibly way to convince you of that. You simply love getting high too much, it's common and you are so cool.
Don't get me wrong, I benefit from fuck ups like you. You guys always have all the answers no matter how wrong they are. In fact, you are becoming the poster boy for a typical doper.
Anywhoose, Arnold gave you big boost today, and I would tend agree with it.
Don't go away, I might make an even better effort for you to skillfully refute. I think that your convincing me dope is something good for the week-ends.

Your study deals with effects on adolescents. I've already agreed that there should be age restrictions like alcohol. So what's your point?
Since we also know that alcohol is worse far worse for the brain you're not left with anywhere else to go with this one.
This where you really go off on the trolling tantrum right?

Thanks spike, your right. Alcohol is bad, maybe worse than smoking pot. Both of which are worse than heroin, but I digress. -- Utilizing your superior intellect and razor sharp powers of reasoning you have already informed me that this argument is only valid when it supports your desire to get high.
Studies are very carefully crafted, they are very narrow in scope and exacting. There are thousands of them and one has to learn from the many out there to develop a more accurate picture. Your blissful approach to the subject affords you the ability to see only what you want to see. -- You love dope to much realize it's why you an idiot.
What we 'know' and what we 'suspect' form the studies is not like building a civilization on your PS3, it's a very difficult and long process to prove anything. I know you want a wikipage that can cover the entire subject in a short paragraph that you can edit to fit your desires, one such page doesn't exist.
However, we can simply look at the brain imaging and see the damage. It's shame we know so little about the complexities brain. There are parts of the brain that we have no clue as to the function but we can see them functioning. We can also see "holes" in areas, some of which we understand and most of which we do not.
It's a fact that we can see there is extensive damage to brain function, much of it on the underside where important stuff happens. We just don't understand what it all is. Although you appear to function very well for some who is working around the holes in his brain.
What you see published in studies is just the tip of the iceberg, what we know and suspect fans out from there. What we see in developing adolescents we also see in fully formed brains. We just have more difficulty in identifying the complexities since the issues are more related to the firings patterns and mechanics, or lack thereof.
It's funny that you accept swaths of memory that are simply not recorded and think its a good thing. -- You understand that you wouldn't even be aware of your memory lapses because you never recorded the memory to lose it. -- It's almost like magic.
We don't have any studies that prove this guy is idiot. Ignorance is bliss.

Yes, alcohol is certainly far worse in many ways. This means that your argument that pot should be illegal while alcohol should not be completely falls on it's face.
Since your argument has failed you resort to making things up to troll. Predictable. I even predicted it just earlier.
So more trolling when you have nowhere to go. "why you an idiot" <- fucking up your grammar when you troll makes this even better....lol.
More made up shit to troll. Predictable.

Yeah, your links didn't show that but we do know that alcohol is far worse. If your whole argument is based on damage then you would certainly be pushing for making alcohol illegal....and McDonalds, trans fats, high fructose corn syrup, etc.
You're arguing for nannyism.
And you made up more shit. Complete failure.

WOW! -- you must be smoking the potent stuff!
No, you have made it very clear that you can only discuss the comparison of alcohol vs pot as a justification to ignore the damaging effects of pots (which is what we are discussing).Ye t you can't accept the effects of heroin as a a reasonable argument that heroin should also be legal, which would reduce many of the detrimental social effects. -- It does however show your adoration and loyalty for your drug of choice.
Oh, did I already mention that attempting to compare alcohol/pot is like comparing water/oil, biomechanically speaking.
Don't make me go all-pro on you, that takes effort..
I simply do not want to pay more taxes to support idiots, like yourself.
You know there is some discussion going about how selective memory might be tied to these memory holes.
OBTW -- I know you like to always cooperate and answer serious questions posed to you. I was wondering if maybe you accidentally overlooked my question about using MDMA and that class of drug. Do you ever, sometimes, occasionally, once in while, have been know to, do those designer drugs recreationally?
I notice you missed that part where Heroin is far less damaging to the body. If it were regulated by the goverment it would be even safer, right? So why not legalize it too?

Ah, you got me with that always winning approach of grammar nazi .
Don't make me go all-pro on you, that takes effort..
No, it true. You have an affinity for the least common denominator. You are attracted to whatever crap makes you feel better about your idiotic interpretation of the world at large. -- It's why you might think MediaMatters is actually source for reliable information.
Well, I may make mistakes in my grammar but at least I can format a post correctly.
Talk about loose and tangential thinking. Specific studies only discuss a very narrow band of data. They do not discuss the entire field of study. The field as a whole understand that brain damage is bad and that pot does quite a bit of brain and development damage. -- you are proving that with every post.
No, I am for a smaller and less intrusive government. If we could rid ourselves of the socialist nanny state you've been working so hard to build I would be OK with over the counter drugs for most anyone.
I simply do not want to pay more taxes to support idiots, like yourself.
Can't remember reading that in my links? It was clearly stated several times. -- Why am I not surprised this fact continues to elude you.

Spike's not even here these days. Its "crunch time at work", he's been busy the last few weeks filling out absentee ballots.

Considering his lifestyle, maybe he totally forgot about this place.
fed vs state is an old battle... these battles have been going on for a very long time. They usually end up in court.
I assume "um" would be Eric Holder. I have no opinion of Eric Holder but I believe, as a comment in the article states, that this is chest puffing.
Without local law enforcement they will not be able to make the dent they would otherwise wish to make in enforcing federal laws regarding marijuana.
