Reefer Madness was not a documentary. Going crazy? Robbing and killing? Arson?

You've clearly never smoked pot.

EDIT: As pointed out by the replies, I clearly didn't do my research before responding ;) Apologies.

He has experimented with lots of drugs, up to and including LSD.

By the way, a close relative does smoke pot (it's legal in my country, Uruguay) and we believe it has brought to the front some (probably preexisting) mental problems which could be described as "going crazy".

I do support legalization, but it's not entirely innocuous (it is my belief it's milder than alcohol, but then again, alcohol does bring some extreme reactions and kills a lot of people)

You are replying to http://www.gwern.net/ :-D My money is on him having smoked pot.

I was being sarcastic about peoples' fears about marijuana, yes, and hopefully making my observation a little more salient: since the distribution of consumption is so ridiculously bimodal (look at pg15, it's amazing), that means there are a lot of people getting extremely high doses, but without obvious ill effects.
