I'm sure we're going to hear the people that think weed is a godsend say it's got no side effects blah blah..but wait until you're in ya old age and you've got issues This is more likely for the 'smoke all day' type stoner as opposed to the nightly smoker in my opinion.
If that were the case then there wouldn't be elderly cannabis smokers such as hippies and some with medical issues. When they said Cannabis never had side-effects on anyone they were speaking about young and old.
