Would you support Marijuana if everything else became illegal?

Ok I get that now. Still, effectively there's still a far lower health risk since most people don't smoke that much seeing as that study didn't find many "extreme" users. But I see what you're saying. Now that I think about it, the use of roaches instead of filters in joints means you're inhaling more smoke than you would with a cig, so 1 joint could be the equivalent to a couple cigs or something in terms of carcinogens inhaled.

But don't you think that we would have some solid evidence on this by now? If it does in fact significantly increase the risk of lung cancer why wouldn't, for example, the DEA be all over this with conclusive proof?

Other factors are also not taken into account.  Not everyone smokes joints,  Some smoke bongs or pipes.  Bongs ofcourse filtering the smoke in the water.  But also that brings other elements into it.  Not all pipes and bongs are glass, some contain metals not just as the structure but also as a screen.  ontop of that with matches youll be inhaling extra sulfur, and lighters youll have what ever is left from the spent butane.

 

and man.. this talk about how much is considered "heavy" or "extreme" ...  im terrified to know what i would be concidered.

Hahaha. Me to.
