If you did not believe it was a drug scare before, you had better now.

On the subject of cannibalism, humans are genetically predisposed to cannibalism and their trigger for cannibalistic instincts may attack under various circumstances.

He was also diagnosed with schizophrenia.

But nope, it is the pot. Don't worry. Your prejudices are safe.

 

...
Have we read the same article ? It doesn' t say that we' re predisposed to cannibalism, it says some of us are predisposed to resist one of its possible consequences, probably because cannibalism was wide-spread at some point (emphasis on probably). We are predisposed to survive, if that' s what you meant, but I doubt this attack was motivated by survival.

Also, this news doesn' t say that pot is what triggered the attack (although I get where you were going with this).

 

Oh, that's strange. I got the impression there was a switch that could be triggered under conditions of extreme hunger in most humans, or something.

I'll read again later.
