It is interesting that liberals want people to be "free" to smoke weed, but not tobacco.

"Hey man have a slice of pizza."
"OMFG NO ITS NOT GMO FREE!!! IT CAUSES CANCER!!!"


"Hey man, pop this pill"
"What is it?"
"I dunno"
"give me 3."

Adds up for me. I am the opposite of them politically, so that makes sense I enjoy tobacco and don't smoke pot.

Guess we should make pot legal...

The only way I could somewhat see their point is you don't generally sit there and inhale joint after joint like you do a pack of cigarettes.  I'm sure the smoke is damaging though

EVERYTHING... NORMAL... must be beaten out of our culture...( consertive life style, living within your means, only buying things you can afford, accepting that you CANT always have what your neighbor has, ( nice car, college degree, etc ) ... ( that's all racist, xenophobic, unfair, and evil ) .

and EVERYTHING, illegal, weird, immoral, etc,  ( weed), things looked down upon previously, ( lazy, people ,  dumbass ideals, multiple kids with multiple men, criminal history, etc,  ) and immoral, ( lgbt) MUST be welcomed with open arms...

Christianity ( which is common,  boring, and intrusive )  is the devil... but muslims are new and exotic, so we must embrace them. working hard, to finally have a nice life / house / job at 30-40-50 is evil... you SHOULD have that all, while working at mcdonalds, when your 18 years old now....

and if you don't 100% happily embrace whatever new thing they force on you.... your a racist, homophobe, muslim hater...

From what I see by my liberal friends, Cannabis, in any form can cure everything and anything. It's medically proven to cure all diseases or aid in getting the nasty diseases in the first place. It is also proven to be 100% successful in the prevention and curing of cancer.




Just ask Bob Marley.

Smoking anything is inherently bad for your lungs.

The freedom to do it is what matters.

Cigarettes are pretty gross though.

Oh trust me, they already are.

I'm not defending them. I don't smoke pot. I don't smoke cigarettes.

The tobacco is not the problem it's all the chemicals they add. Most of what's in a cigarette is not tobacco it's doped paper.

Since pot is presumably all natural (not saying it is) then health wise it would be better for you than commercially made cigarettes.

There are sources for 100% natural tobacco. If you smoke this natural tobacco the health risks associated with it compared to pot is probably negligible. Either way none of it is good for you.

While inhaling any smoke is not good for your lungs, pot smoke is much less harmful than tobacco smoke.
Note that many folks mistake "less harmful" for "not harmful".

And there are medicinal uses for pot, where the helpfulness outweighs the badness of the smoke to your lungs.

Soil contains trace amounts of radioactive materials.  Plants are bio-accumulators, see bananas and ionizing radiation from potassium isotopes.



When smoked (MJ and tobacco, not bananas), they can do lots of damage internally.  Skin normally stops the damage.



MJ will be shown to cause cancer soon enough, so the war on weed will meet the war on pain meds and heroin.
Your theory is incorrect. What if the cannabis is grown in Hydro or coco coir?

We have had tens of millions of people smoking tens of millions of pounds of illegal pot from uncertain origins for the last fifty years. When do you suppose we will have some clear signs that it causes cancer?

Vegan/vegetarian diet = good, healthy.

Wheat bread = healthy

Gluten = Your dick flying off like a bottle rocket.

Never understood how they came to that conclusion, since we've been eating wheat bread for what... Three thousand years?

Tobacco = lung cancer

liquor = must be taxed or it's bad!

pot = no health risks whatsofuckingever. Nevermind that weed kills brain cells. Not as many as alcohol, but still.


ETA: Their reasoning is shit, and based solely on their 'feelz.' Remember that, and you will understand why they say the things they do.

Chances are if you smoked as much pot by volume as smokers do tobacco everyday, it would be just as bad if not worse.
