→Problems with Liberal Denial: new section
The conclusion that your link gave me was that there can be some serious side effects if you are in a group that is particularly at risk. There are no studies that indicate the general public is at risk of developing significant psychological effects. The U.S. government has come under criticism for exaggerating the effects of various drugs. If there was any evidence of this, it would be listed. However, NIDA only says that it can increase the risk of mental disorders in people who are already predisposed to them. I challenge people to find a single study that says that the general public is at a significant risk of having a psychological disorder solely from marijuana use. --[[User:Esmith543|Esmith543]] 22:20, 11 April 2011 (EDT)

:It was once thought that smoking cigarettes was harmless, now we know it causes a litany of health problems. Even [[Wikipedia]] recognizes that cannabis use (pot, marijuana, weed, or what ever ''you'' know it as) causes health problems, including mental health problems. Studies on long-term effects have been inconclusive, but that does not mean that it doesn't cause long-term damage. Why do you insist on pushing your views on our website?

== Problems with Liberal Denial ==
This article needs a bit of a clean-up, and should be sorted and expanded. I think that each denial needs a source of a liberal that believes the falsehood, and a link to a proof they are wrong. Without this, the examples could just be straw men.
