Of course, in an effort to get to the bottom of the so-called “potent pot” story, Ms. Yen might have thought to inquire why the US National Drug Intelligence Center’s 2007 National Drug Threat Assessment states, “Most of the marijuana available in the domestic drug markets is lower potency commercial-grade marijuana.” Geez, you’d think that the various prohibitionist branches of the US government would at least get their stories straight!Oh well, since lying about the alleged dangers of allegedly more potent pot is now an annual tradition (Remember “Pot 2.0” anybody?), there’s always next year.

Strangely, AP writer Hope Yen felt the need to identify Dr. Earleywine, who has authored numerous peer-reviewed studies and books on various aspects of cannabis, as “an adviser for marijuana advocacy groups,” but felt no such need to identify Mr. Walters or Ms. Volkow as “those who favor arresting and jailing adults who use marijuana, even when their use is for medical purposes.”

Saturday, June 14, 2008 6:12:43 PM When I was in journalism school, the rule of thumb was that you needed to have your facts confirmed by three separate sources before a news story was ‘fit to print.’ By that standard, the ‘three sources’ cited in the story above — White House Drug Czar (and chronic liar) John Walters, NIDA’s (US National Institute on Drug Abuse) Potency Monitoring Project, and Nora Volkow, who heads the rabidly anti-drug propaganda agency that paid for the Monitoring Project study — don’t even add up to one.Fortunately, the AP did at least demonstrate the good sense to speak with SUNY Albany Professor (and NORML Advisory Board member) Mitch Earleywine, who stated the obvious factoid overlooked by the White House: As the potency of pot rises, people simply smoke less of it. Mitch could have also noted that most cannabis consumers actually prefer less potent pot, just as the majority of those who drink alcohol prefer beer or wine over hard liquor. |

Saturday, June 14, 2008 9:42:06 AM I do not see how the general public in America does not believe in Evolution. 70% of Americans believe that Satan exists.I guess the general population in USA are just irrational. |

Saturday, June 14, 2008 9:26:33 AM What I was saying is that everything superficially labeled "artificial" is just as natural as anything else.And weed did not kill 1 person last year. It killed no one, ever. |

Friday, June 13, 2008 12:08:31 PM This is not proof of Evolution or natural selection of any kind. Marijuana is stronger now than it was in the past only due to the conditions we have placed upon it. Rather than growing marijuana in large quantities outdoors, growers have come to realize that growing indoors yields less 'bud' at higher levels of THC. This is largely due to the fact that under controlled conditions (nitrated soil, temperature, light exposure, cross-breeding...blah blah blah...) marijuana plants are able to grow under optimal conditions. Thus, marijuana over the past 30 years is stronger ONLY due to the conditions it has been subjected to. This does NOT suggest that marijuana is now inherently stronger...All this study suggests is that growers are finding more efficient ways to produce marijuana that can get you BAKED AS SH*T!!!11 |

Friday, June 13, 2008 11:17:32 AM "Evolution is not a theory any more, it is an observable phenomenon. Fruit flies (specifically Drosophila Melanogaster) are commonly used to demonstrate changes within a species’ genetics over a period of time due to their relatively short breeding periods." Actually, that's not evolution in the sense of goo to you. Throughout all the years those flies have been bombarded with radiation and observed, they have never become anything other than a fly. "Denying the existence of evolution is akin to denying the presence of gravity." Not really since we observe gravity and its effects daily, but I challenge you to put forth an example of macro-evolutionary change having been observed in a laboratory. |

Friday, June 13, 2008 8:25:18 AM what the hell, pot is stronger now because they have found better ways to grow it, and dealers make it stronger. Ive had some pretty crappy pot before, and some pretty great pot, it depends, this doesnt have anything to do with evolution |

Friday, June 13, 2008 5:23:25 AM How can anyone oppose the evolution theory unless one's sense and rationality has not withered away to a state of implicit obedience?Oh wait, that's just how Religion works. |
