Do you think the movie “reefer madness” was true or real?

Says here the movie says that smoking Pot leads to Hit and Run Accidents, Murder and Manslaughter, Suicide, attempted rape, hallucinations, and Depression. Any one of those you think is even close to being true??

    I highly doubt it. Most studies have debunked practically every claim in that movie, except for hallucinations. (Closed eye hallucinations are common, yet mild)

    It's less truthful than a 1990's D.A.R.E packet, and about as effective at deterring drug use.

    I agree. It was a B movie that satired weed. It was not meant to be a political statement but the politicians of the time took it serious and outlawed Marijuana.

    We did have a lot of hit and run pedestrian accidents in Las Vegas, people in Vegas are on a whole Hell of a lot more than some reefer. Also Las Vegas is full of jaywalkers.
