    U.S. Surgeon General Retweeted CNN

    I JUST did a radio interview where I spoke of the downsides of marijuana use (can harm development, impair learning and lead to addiction in youth, harm developing fetus in pregnancy). Here’s one more danger- you could get eaten by a tiger! 😲 🏃🐅 #notanOnionstory @TheOnionhttps://twitter.com/CNN/status/1096051460327002113 …

    U.S. Surgeon General added,

    The tiger discovered this week in the garage of an abandoned Texas home by someone who'd gone to smoke weed has been moved to its new home. He's learning to walk on grass and gingerly prancing around his enclosure under the watchful eye of his new fans. https://cnn.it/2DAUtK6  pic.twitter.com/Iba1a2Biee

        You are certainly intelligent enough to know that 99.9% of the "harms" associated w/ cannabis only exist because of the policy of prohibition. Continuing that policy is bad for our country. Focusing entirely on "downsides" only serves to do just that. Legalize. Regulate. Educate.

        It’s apparent he actually isn’t that intelligent.

        I hope you realize that lying or exaggerating from the position you are in just weakens the credibility in that office going forward

        The main cause of death for kids in the state of Colorado ages 10 to 24 is suicide. The main drug they are testing positive for is marijuana ages 10 to 19. Marijuana increases suicide risk by 7 fold. We need your help.

        Perhaps they were depressed and self medicating. Correlation is not causation.

        I hope your radio interview also included the benefits to palliative care, epilepsy treatment, and mental health.

        Dr. Christine Miller explains the science of marijuana causes psychosis.l in this video. The data is not being collected correctly and our kids are dying. Please stop the marijuana train wreck. Our children are bombarded by pro pot propaganda.https://youtu.be/yA-RwlwQe5w

        Kids aren't dying from cannabis. No one has ever died from it, actually. It's safer to regulate it and require 21+ IDs to purchase instead of dealers who will sell to anyone, kids included. Teen use has been stable or gone down in CO since legalization. What are you fighting?

        Keep twisting, some of us know better and no longer lend any credence to anything you say because you outright lie.
