I think for the most part MMJ is a cop out but still at the same time there are benefits to smoking it but not to the point where it's going to cure cancer. I mean lets face it...if weed didn't exist I think everyone, including MMJ patients wouldn't die. It's more or less a better alternative for some. Personally I smoke it for recreational purposes and recreational purposes only. I guess it helps relieve stress if you want to stretch it but otherwise I won't deny that I seek it for pleasure. The only discrepency I have with it is the fact that I smoke it. Now I don't know if I'm right and I encourage anyone to disprove this, but I have a strong hunch that Pot smoke is bad for your lungs. Maybe not as bad as cigarette smoke but still. I've only been smoking for a few years and I can definitely tell the difference between my clean lungs at 16 and my pot infested lungs at 20. Not that the THC has anything to do with it but come on...I mean it is smoke going into your lungs which does indeed create tar build up. Why else are all of my pipes infested with resin? Sorry I don't know if anyone believes this but a lot of people claim it isn't harmful to your lungs. Seriously someone please correct me on this if I'm wrong because I'd rather find out I'm wrong than right....after all I am a pothead :stoned:
I think that weed is terrible for your lungs. If you really think about it, one fat bt is probably equal to a full cigs amount of smoke. I will take anywhere from 10-20 bt's a day on average and that is a lot of smoke. On top of all that I smoke cigs and hookah so there is always smoke in my lungs. I get bronchitis frequently and it goes away when i stop smoking weed. I can smoke cigs all day every day and be fine, same with hookah, but once i add pot to the mix my lungs are fucked. So your probably right about the smoke being a "little" bad for the lungs.

MMJ...medicine or myth Before anyone bites my head off, allow me to qualify what I'm about to say by stating that if someone believes that weed relieves their symptoms from any illness or chronic pain or side effects of treatments or whatever reason someone uses MMJ, far be it from me to deny them their medicine. I am all for it.
