Kid's Pot Use Up

I propose that those heavy into alcohol switch to pot. It is safer. Evidently the kids have wised up to the fact. The "adults" seem to remain on the stupid side. But the OFs are dying off. It is no longer a matter of if, just when.seedload wrote:Fantastic! Great news! Bold it!
Again, have you changed from advocating for drug legalization to advocating for drug use?

There is NOTHING safe about pot.

I am not an expert in the field, but I think that lung wise smoke is smoke.quixote wrote:Out of curiosity, how does smoking pot compare with smoking cigarettes with regard to its effect on the lungs? From what I've read in a casual google search, it seems to be much worse, but I haven't seen too much info on it.
Do you guys have any decent sources?

Having known alcohol addicts and pot smokers (and not being part of either category) I tend to strongly agree on his statement.
According to this one, teens are using more cannibus than tobacco.

the International Conference of the American Thoracic Society (ATS) concluding that smoking marijuana, even long-term, is not positively associated with increased incidence of lung-cancer
While the investigators’ failure to demonstrate a positive association between cannabis use and cancer may seem surprising to some, the bottom line is that scientists overseas have been studying pot’s potential anti-cancer properties for nearly a decade. Most recently, investigators at Italy's Instuto di Chemica Biomolecolare reported in the May issue of the Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics that compounds in marijuana inhibit cancer cell growth in animals and in culture on a wide range of tumor cell lines, including human breast carcinoma cells, human prostate carcinoma cells, and human colectoral carcinoma cells.

More like water is safer than wine. Both will kill you if you drink enough. But you have to drink a lot more water at a sitting.ladajo wrote:This is starting to sound like arguing that Full Metal Jacketed rounds are safer to shoot people with than Hollow Points.
BTW the estimated overdose level for pot is something like smoking a thousand pounds in 15 minutes. (the number was put into the record and not contradicted in the DEA Judge Young rescheduling case) No one in recorded history has been able to do it. The dug deaths attributed to pot have all been poly-drug cases.
Did I mention smoking 200 cigarettes in 15 minutes will kill you? It has been tried. It worked.
What I find interesting is that on one of the major topics of the day so much ignorance and misinformation abounds. It is not like tying a few words into Google and following the links is so hard.
