Yep just like NIH here in the US.Good old Killer Weed.Leads directly to herion use.lol
And they'll probably try to connect it to being a pedophile too just to demonize it some more.

Im just playing devils advocate here, but how do you guys know that this is bullshit without actually reading the study? I dont believe it because I have seen other studies that made sense saying it wasnt really that bad for you and through my own anecdotal evidence, but maybe this study shows something new. Which i highly doubt, but still.

You see what I dont understand about a lot of you guys is you guys always and always and always think that there bull shitting you but one question is.... how do you know?? What if they are telling the truth, are you going to continue thinking there lying??? Don't get me wrong guys Im not on the government side but you have to think about what your smoking..

Yes some articles I do believe smoking cannabis can greatly damage your lungs over time. You as an individual , your smoking a drug. It is relatively safe compared to drugs like Heroin, or cocaine or meth but cannabis is still dangerous to the lungs if you smoke it. Think guys, it isnt like you see the media saying, cannabis can kill you but there are posted on here for a reason.

I have never known or heard of a full time weed smoker get cancer.I'll believe it when I see it.
