4merper4mer Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 I’ve been reading on here for years that pot is the solution to all our problems and causes no problems. There is one guy with 108 reasons to disagree, but I guess the judge was like totally baked. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/california-woman-gets-probation-fatally-stabbing-man-dated-causing-108-rcna135778 Can’t wait to read how pot has nothing to do with this. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 (edited) correlation is not causation. Did she have fast food that day? Did she listen to Taylor Swift? Did she have UGGs on? See you can link anything?

She is obviously weak minded I maybe wrong here, but I think the OP is the "math won" guy in terms of his argument for "proving" that there is no intelligent life in the ENTIRE UNIVERSE. I.E., don't waste too much time here. The whole correlation does not imply causation thing went right over his head. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfanmiamioh Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Criminal defense teams definitely never stretch the truth 🙄….Even if their story isn’t embellished, she most likely has undiagnosed mental illness. Cannabis can be very dangerous for people with mental illness and can exacerbate psychosis but it’s not a singular cause effect relationship. Every mind altering substance has risk associated with it. Cannabis isn’t for everyone. But demonizing cannabis because one crazy person claimed it caused them to stab someone is lazy. Feed into the reefer madness if you will, but your claims are contrary to a mountain of evidence that it’s fairly low risk for the vast majority of people. Why don’t we as a society talk more about the risks of alcohol or RX medicine abuse which are both FAR more dangerous? 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden*Wheels Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 (edited) I would assume pot+a (undiagnosed?) mental illness led to her stabbing the dude (and herself!). Edited January 27 by Golden*Wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pot can trigger psychotic episodes and breaks in people with underlying issues. Same with most drugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augie Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 (edited) I’m glad the dog survived. You’ve got a problem bigger than pot if you stabbed your dog. I’m not saying it couldn’t be a factor, but you know a defense attorney has to pin it on something other than the defendant. .

Actually a pothead judge might have denied any I’ll effects from pot and thrown the book at her. Potheads are highly defensive, It’s an odd story.

thenorthremembers Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 So if you kill someone with your car after drinking it's manslaughter but if you get messed up on weed and stab someone over 100 times that's probation? Something tells me if this women was 300 lbs, looked like Bill Belichick in a dress and lived in any state with common sense she'd be doing a lot more than probation. Pot is only part of the problem here. I'm gonna go ahead and assume this was pot from these cool new dispensaries that make the strains way too high. This idiot didn't involuntarily stab anyone. Regardless of pot, alcohol or any other substance your brain still has to tell your hands to grab a knife and plunge the thing into a human body 100 times. She is an adult, understood she was putting a foreign substance into her body, anything after that is 100% on her. Jesus California...do better.

Again perhaps I am simply writing badly again....locked up for simply smoking pot ("over it") which is a giant waste of time. A courteous or even common sense reading would get you there buddy. Maybe go smoke a joint an relax or something. I dunno. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But dont expect a real conversation about it. I'm curious as to what happened in his past to make him like this.

Realistic and objective observations of society made me “like this”. But if you’re not concerned, that’s your prerogative. There used to be a poster on here who essentially claimed different strains of pot as being cures for just about every disease known to mankind. That hasn’t panned out.
