Hey look, it's almost as if we are trying to reduce gang activity by legalizing, not trying to reduce the incidence of psychosis from 1 in 95000 to 1 in 100000.

First let me say, I'm pro-legalization.
According to that Harvard article which Dion posted, a regular boy/girl, who doesn't have a history of psychosis, has a 7 in 1000 chance of developing it. If that individual uses marijuana (according to the article/research) just once, it doubles to 14 in 1000. And if the user is a heavy user, it jumps to 42 in 1000. A little different than your numbers, but it's also just one article/study.
