    Research, randomized controlled trials and actual data will lot remove anecdotal evidence.

    That’s not how anecdotal evidence works.

    Anecdotal evidence is derived from personal experience. And is usually contrary or constrictive of what has been researched.

      I’m well aware of how it works. Are you saying that anecdotal evidence should be given the same weight as randomized controlled trials? Research doesn’t remove it, but it sure carries a lot more weight.

      My point about legalization still stand regardless of what type of evidence we are talking about.
