   All that this “research” has shown is that cannabis gets you stoned!   
      
   The effects of any drug could be described as those of a mental illness –   
   just look at how people act after a couple of drinks.   
      
   The research would be a bit more valid if they tested them after the   
   cannabis wore off.   
      
   Imagine what the results of injecting someone with alcohol would be! It   
   would be far worse than anything mentioned in this nonsense.   
      
      
      
   This unfortunately looks like the typical propaganda sponsored research   
   where the required conclusions were found before the research was carried   
   out.
