PROTIP marijuana has interesting chemical properties, but smoking it does not cure your cancer. Smoking it can actually give you lung cancer, but ja they "inject" the chemicals into cancer cells. Read the journals :PP
Obviously tobacco causes lung cancer, but has it ever been proven that marijuana smoke causes lung cancer? Just curious.I think the future are those E-cigarettes and E-Joints.
There are carcinogens in weed smoke. They're similar or the same as the ones in tobacco smoke. Honestly setting anything on fire and holding it in your lungs is kind of a bad idea x)Ecigs are interesting! I like to take out the nicotine and puff vanilla and strawberry. Helps with snack cravings. As to health detriments, I don't foresee many possibilities, but you never know. Can't be worse than cigs right?
Some of the E-cigs actually taste like good tobacco. They aren't all fruity. My thing is the E-joint. Once marijuana is legal all over the country, E-joints that taste like high quality cannabis and actually have the THC oil in it.....will be a billion dollar business.
I think you still have to be really careful with over the counter cold medicine in NFL rules. They're years away from weed being ok.
Bottom line: It's federally illegal. Just like government workers, you can't smoke weed. NFL has their rules for a reason, and it will remain that way until it is federally legal.
Yeah just a quick search gave me two studies. http://www.ersj.org.uk/content/31/2/280.short One says that it increases the risk of cancer. http://archinte.jamanetwork.com/article.aspx?articleid=410634 One says that there's no conclusive link to cancer, but they found " an association of marijuana smoking with increased tar exposure, alveolar macrophage tumoricidal dysfunction, increased oxidative stress, and bronchial mucosal "
If you want accurate long term studies then you must legalize it. I don't know how they get most of those paranoid potheads into the laboratory xD
We are all fed, breath, and absorb plastic, co2, and radioactivity every day, when we sleep and work.Let's not kid ourselves that weed is bad. It's the least of my worries.I just think it's dumb to have it outlawed anyway, when there are soooo many other things out there that aren't being dealt with that can indeed kill.
Dumb? If we legalized marijuana, then private prisons would lose a lot of their slave labor. Don't you have any feelings for the fatcat prison owners? Because making prisons profitable could never go wrong! [/sarcasm]

Yeah I don't think we need an official study to figure out that can't be good for you.
More people have died from nail gun accidents than weed. Show me where weed is harmful in any way, at all.
That's nothing more than stoner propaganda. I'm sure there have been more than a few automobile accidents due to marijuana usage. Same with heavy machinery or dangerous activities like swimming. Long-term smoking will increase your chances of lung damage, if not lung cancer. Not to mention the psychological effects it has on a small percentage of the population. Marjuana is heavily linked to adolescent schizophrenia.
I rarely get into my personal life with you guys, but I can testify to this one. I lost a beautiful, funny, amazing woman to marijuana induced schizophrenia. It's an awful disease that you can never cure (with modern medicine) that changes you from Johnny Depp to (INSERT POLITICIAN YOU HATE HERE). You still see that person walking around but it's like they put a different brain and soul in there. It's the biggest BS ever
I think I'd go Schizo if I smoked it on the regular. It makes me feel paranoid as hell. I hate the weed high.
Thug, dope-smoking corn-rows loser ball-- just like the NBA.
Merica' imprisons a higher percentage of their own citizens than any other country in the world....and it isn't even close. It's almost twice as much as the next closest, which is China. I wonder how much the legalization of marijuana would change this. I wonder if it would be huge or hardly make a dent.
Marijuana.... The main reason I signed up for electronic petitions to be sent to my email.

There has never been a documented case of cancer caused by marijuana, ever. The only way it could ever be linked is from the way it is smoked. The papers,cigars mainly.
9. Benzopyrene is the chemical in tobacco that causes lung cancer. An average marijuana cigarette contains nearly 50% more benzopyrene than a tobacco cigarette. An average marijuana cigarette contains 30 nanograms of this carcinogen compared to 21 nanograms in an average tobacco cigarette (Marijuana and Health, National Academy of Sciences, Institute of Medicine Report, 1982) Benzopyrene suppresses a gene that controls growth of cells. When this gene is damaged the body becomes more susceptible to cancer. This gene is related to half of all human cancers and as many as 70% of lung cancers http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/dope/body/effects.html
If you need a study to tell you holding burning hot smoke in your lungs and throat is not healthy ... you are hopeless.

Let me put it this way. We know drinking water from a red cup will hydrate you.However, there is no conclusive research on drinking water with red food coloring from a cup with Disney characters and a 49ers logo, but based on what we know about hydration and water.. It will hydrate you. Getting chronic pot smokers to partake in research is a bit tricky considering how illegal it is.But carcinogens are carcinogens.
