Is Cannabis More Dangerous than Heroin?

A recent debate in the United Kingdom has many experts claiming that cannabis is more dangerous than heroin.

The National Schizophrenia Fellowship now called Rethink in July 2006 informed the UK House of Commons Select Committee on Science and Technology that cannabis IS more dangerous than heroin.

The psychosis caused by cannabis is permanent.

Hydroponically grown cannabis called SKUNK is up to 20 times more powerful as naturally grown cannabis.

Children that commence smoking cannabis at age 10 or 11 treble their risk of developing schizophrenia.

Experts from Cambridge University found that 8 out of 10 cases of initial psychiatric disorders occurred in heavy users of cannabis.

The British Journal of Psychiatry has reported that cannabis use for adolescents causes development problems, permanent cognitive impairment, psychosis, chronic apathy usually permanent, schizophrenia and maniac depression.

A Dutch study found that depression is 3 times more common in cannabis users.
