2 Studies: Marijuana raises risk of heart attack, heart failure and stroke by up to a THIRD

[initforme]

Sugar kills. Industrial chemicals cause cancer. The chemicals in processed food kill. Then there's fast food. It's awful.

 

[Blaster]

yet there has never been a thread on here attacking cigarettes and there are daily ones going after pot.

It shows it is not about health and all about control

I have posted here about the health risk of smoking cigarettes.

 

[Blaster]

Most Americans consume too much sugar and fatty foods. Obesity is a problem in our country and can lead to diabetes and heart disease.

 

[Woodznutz]

Then do not use it.

Just quit being an asshole authoritarian that wants to control what everyone else does.

No worries. The stupid, thoughtless assholes that use drugs aren't going to stop.

yep, there is no way we will get them to quit using caffeine.

All food is 'fast food' if you don't chew it up good.

Some truth to that. They say that 60 percent of Americans are sleep-deprived, and caffeine certainly plays a part in that (been there, done that).

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Caffeine only alters your thinkin' a little.

it is a drug that is far more addictive than pot

No need for threads attacking cigarettes. Everybody, even smokers, know that cigarettes will kill you.

yet I have never seen anyone on here push to outlaw them.

 

[Mac-7]

Yep, if you do not smoke it but get it otherwise many of these issues are not a problem.

I know a lot of people that use it for one reason or another and the only ones I know that smoke it are the ones that grow their own

That explains why we agree on practically nothing

I dont know anyone that uses pot

Well have not used such a thing in quite the while. I will vote to legalize recreational use in my state today. Let the individual choose to use or not not. It is the individual choice not mine to make. They wanna be high all the time it's on them.

Revisit my post, I edited it.
I had a terrible coffee addiction when I was younger. Now I have less than two cups per day. I sleep good as well.

They are outlawed in many places. Try to light up in any restaurant, or other public place, even outside.

The problem is that the user gets high and the whole community has a hangover.

They are not outlawed anywhere, they are just not allowed in some places. They are still 100% legal to buy

Yes marijuana is harmful but so is too much sugar or sodium.

It’s OK to shoot someone because people get hit by buses and fall off cliffs, too.
The point is that the harmful effects of pot are being quashed by the creepy pot industry. We know what sugar and sodium and alcohol can do but pot is being promoted as though it’s safe and harmless. Very dangerous.
I expect pot lawsuits to pick up where asbestos left off.

Yes you do. You may not know they use pot, but somebody you know does. Probably several somebodies.

 

[Moonglow]

of course there are.....what other harder drugs did they use over time....how many were daily cigg smokers?.....did they drink alcohol everyday?...

Flexeril is some killer shit.

Lol, no they don't. Plenty of people I know got High as hell yesterday and likely this morning. I am sitting here just fine absolutely zero effect on me.
