OK, what shade of gray makes it any different?I doubt it’s that black and white with these looser laws.

We all to a degree organize our lives and environment. We fall daily easily into routines and habits. It's observable that people deal with stress differently but how much study has been done on a cultural level based on racial demographics? Which societies and racials groups are more disposed to stress? Obsessive organization or control? Cultural stasis? Social or cultural homogeneity? The creation of laws? Linear thinking? Logic and it's applications?
Are.m contracting agencies required to ask whether someone they’re planning on hiring is high? Are piss tests a thing of the past in some private sectors?
You really are LEO. You cant even comprehend what I am talking about.LOL, “prescriptions”.
Every legal dispensary I’ve ever driven by has nothing but healthy 20-somethings coming out of there with sh*t-eating grins on their face!
I’m not falling for the illusion that “medicinal” marijuana is targeted at rotting cancer patients.

I'm talking about the prescriptions you get, from your doctor, that are synthesized in a lab.
Marijuana is not synthesized. Marijuana just is.
But that's different to you. Because science...
Wow
Sorry. Just wanted to give an example on how silly things are and how easily manipulated we can be.Well, when you state “special note”, what do you expect someone to think this day in age!?
Yeah, @&$# the general public, amirite!?
Nope.
This was a local media story so it read like you were implying that it wasn't getting national coverage because of location.
Which is still wrong because the national media often picks up random inner-city violence stories. If it bleeds it leads. ESPN has been fapping themselves over DeAndre Hopkins donating a game check due to a girl getting shot in a driveby in Houston.
Just wondering if any studies have been done on whether specific racial groups show a disposition toward certain behaviors or mental illnessed? Are there any stats that show specific societies have a disposition toward specific schools of thought? Etc...I don't know if I'm tracking you here....
Are Asians more dispossed toward depression than Caucasians. Are Caucasians more dispossed toward violent conflict resolution than Hispanics?I don't know if I'm tracking you here....
Quick! Send some thoughts and prayers!!

For instance, do Germans show a higher propensity toward regimented social structures, rules of law, logic over emotion, rigid control of self or social environment as compare to Italians or Britons or Finns?
Well, I wrote that wrong. It should be more like Asians compared to Caucasians. My example is only appropriate when comparing national groups. My bad on that, sorry.
If Asians are not as predispossed to depression lets say, is it genetic or societal? Does that change with the introduction of non-Asians to the mix? If so, at what ratio?I don't know if I'm tracking you here....
I'm no smart person but that seems like it would be near impossible to study because most people on earth are going to be heavily influenced by their society.Just wondering if any studies have been done on whether specific racial groups show a disposition toward certain behaviors or mental illnessed?

You might be able to do from anthropologic perspective by drilling into the overall history of a people. As for stats on genetic predispositions toward specific mental illnesses like schizophrenia you'd have to isolate a gene or combination of genes potentially in order to test for it.I'm no smart person but that seems like it would be near impossible to study because most people on earth are going to be heavily influenced by their society.
I would think youd need to study indigenous people to get anywhere near your goal and that isnt gonna happen today.
Are there even any indigenous caucasians on earth? I've got no clue
I don't know that its without merit to assume Germanic people are of a distinct genetic cluster than Anglo-Saxons, which will manifest differences in behavior. As far as differences, well, there's some significant difference between how European peoples and POC's vote in the US... (though none of this should be all that surprising)
