There never has been a death or serious illness attributed to marijuana use.
It might give you the munchies and make you eat a bunch of junk food...
But seriously alcohol is MUCH more addictive and dangerous than marijuana is. Nobody has ever overdosed solely on marijuana before. You can't say the same for alcohol. If there was a way for the government to make money off of pot-and not suffer a backlash from the anti-pot people (mostly the older crowd who generated nonsense like reefer madness). Has anybody ever heard of a bar fight involving a high person before? I've seen plenty of drunk people do it haha.
(and no I don't smoke marijuana for the record)
What is the record for smoking Marijuana? Is that number of bong hits per minute or joints per hour? Lids per day?
That would mean that NO pot smoker has ever gotten or could get cancer.
Since you know that's not true, the study is nonsense isn't it?

According to Harvard Medical, if you smoke less than 10 joints/day, you're a light user. 10-20 joints/day is considered middle use, and over 20 joints/day is heavy use.
According to that scale, I'm a very light user.

Me 2 but doesn't it really depend on the quality of the herb you smoke.
Marijuana has been decriminalized (readily available) in The Netherlands since 1976. Have you ever heard of such a problem on a Dutch Airliner?I can hardly wait to get on an airplane and notice that the pilot and copilot are both stoned.
Just saw this on the news..........
Pat Robertson and marijuana legalization make for strange bedfellows, but he's actually been championing the causespecifically its place in the conversation about prison reformsince 2010.
Yes, according to an interview with The New York Times on Wednesday, the strict evangelical who believes gay people cause hurricanes and that mac 'n cheese may be a "black thing," is also for the legalization of marijuana. But it isn't because he's tried the stuff. It's a bit more complicated than that. I really believe we should treat marijuana the way we treat beverage alcohol, Robertson told The Times. "Ive never used marijuana and I dont intend to, but its just one of those things that I think: this war on drugs just hasnt succeeded." This has been a talking point for Robertson for some time now.
Back in December 2010, The Atlantic's Chris Good wrote about "Pat Robertson's Christmas Present to Marijuana Legalizers', his take on a recent airing of The 700 Club where Robertson said, "We're locking up people that take a couple of puffs of marijuana, and the next thing you know they've got ten years ... it's costing us a fortune and it's ruining young people. Young people going to prisons--they go in as youths and they come out as hardened criminals, it's not a good thing." Back then Robertson's spokesman said it wasn't a call to decriminalize pot.
So, fast forward to last week on The 700 Club where Robertson, as The Atlantic's Andrew Cohen writes, "devoted nearly nine minutes of the broadcast to commentary and a (really well produced) piece on the topic." Adding, "He's also right in identifying the notion that decriminalizing pot possession is one of the easiest ways to break the cycle of incarceration that ruins people -- and government budgets." Following that broadcast, Robertson told The Times' Jesse McKinley, " I just want to be on the right side... And I think on this one, Im on the right side."

Lullaboo,I'm for the legalization of marijuana. At the moment, it's quite a profitable business which doesn't pay taxes. I believe that smoking marijuana is no worse than drinking and smoking. There always will be people who adhere to a healthy lifestyle and there always will be people who have problems with addiction. I think that people have such an attitude towards marijuana, because only the lowest representatives of society smoke weed, but this isn't true. I know a lot of managers and bosses who don't mind smoking a joint after a hard working day. These are quite successful, normal people. They are far away from heroin and cocaine. I find more and more articles on the Internet like this. These people just hide their attachments very well. I believe that excessive consumption of sweet, alcohol or sex is also just another way to relax.
Ok for a Medical problem, but not good for a driver of a car. It can kill you. Just talk to someone from a state that has rec laws for smoking the stuff. You can also get COPD in about 10 years of smoking it. You die of lung failure .Just saw this on the news..........

You have never seen the lungs of a heavy pot smoker, the stuff is a gummy slime that smothers you. Eating it is not bad as far as I have seen. Seen a lot of dead bodies to come to this conclusion so please be warned.Lullaboo,I'm for the legalization of marijuana. At the moment, it's quite a profitable business which doesn't pay taxes.

Thanks for your intelligent commentary!
You are quite right that smoking marijuana is no worse than smoking tobacco and drinking alcohol. In fact tobacco and alcohol are far more biologically destructive than marijuana. Tobacco and beverage alcohol, both of which are addictive, kill many thousands of Americans annually and make hundreds of thousands seriously sick, but there is no record of marijuana ever killing anyone or making anyone sick. And I should mention that smoking is not the only way, nor is it the best way, to enjoy marijuana. The only reason it presently is the most common method of use is the pressures of prohibition which have driven it underground and obscured available information on alternative usage (edibles).
On the matter of addiction: Marijuana is not a narcotic. It contains no addictive chemicals. Like many other pleasurable things (coffee, sweets, etc.) regular marijuana use can be habit-forming, but unlike addiction a repetitive habit is relatively easy to overcome.
The reason it appears that only the least prestigious members of society use marijuana is the stigma associated with it has driven it underground for those whose social status could be negatively affected by it. But I believe you would be quite surprised to learn just how common marijuana use is at the more conservative levels of society.
Smoking anything, especially cigarettes, can be harmful. Lung damage from cigarettes is most harmful because the average cigarette smoker consumes between twenty and forty cigarettes a day and cigarettes contain a number of highly toxic chemicals.You have never seen the lungs of a heavy pot smoker, the stuff is a gummy slime that smothers you. Eating it is not bad as far as I have seen. Seen a lot of dead bodies to come to this conclusion so please be warned.

I started smoking cigarettes in 1950 at age fifteen. I managed to quit in 1985 (wasn't easy). That was thirty-five years, ending with a 30 cigarette a day addiction.[...]
As far as getting COPD after 10 years of smoking? Well, I started smoking in 2002 after I retired from the Navy. Been smoking almost daily since, and it's now 2018, which means that I've been smoking for roughly 16 years now.
Well, I still ride my bicycle at 17 to 25 mph, and on my last physical exam, my 02 stats were at 98 percent, which is pretty damn good for a 53 year old.
