^^^ whos gonna believe that after reading the link i provided? it has ample amounts of facts supported by loads of research. its hard to denny...

and just exactly who paid to have this study done???if you want to look at study's go back to the laguardia report from 1935..or the syudy's done ny the nixon admin.the truth is that every study ever done by legitimate researchers have proven that cannibis is no more harmful to your respitory system than living in any major metro area in the us. i have smoked for over 30 yrs and have had no negative side effects from doing so..now thats not to say others will have the same positive experiance i have .but in a country that is supossed to be the freest on the planet we should all have the choice to decide for ourselves wheather we want to take these alleged risks

Can smoking only weed cause lung cancer in the long run? I've done alot of research and there is no evidence of it. That would be a good arguement..

it can because the smoke you inhale contains carcinogens due to the fact its been burnt. Theres too many people around who dont accept that smoking weed CAN lead to long term problems. Not necessarily cancer, but a variety of less serious ones.

this link has a article on cannibis and lung cancer...
and no there is NO evidence that even heavy use of cannibis can cause cancer.
it's sad to see how many people even pot smokers who have brainwashed into believing that somthing bad will happen to every one who uses cannibis for extended period's of time..it has proven time and again that cannibis is the most theraputicly safe substance known to mankind..no one has ever died from a cannibis over dose ..NOT EVER..compared to aspirin and tylenol both of which kill thousands every year from O/D related deaths to kidney failure.[ acetimenophen] is the number one cause of kidney failure in the world.. that is a fact..i will choose to use cannibis for minor ache's and pain's over tylenol any day of the week...

i passed a 100-question test on black literature(and i got fucked that morning) marijuana multiplies my thinking. i enjoy being high, so therefore im going to achieve good things. im not joking either. i got an 80 percent on it. but smoking everyday, after a while could hinder you from reaching your highest potential. if youre a student id say just use on weekends, and if you wont do that do it once a weekday. smoking weed will NOT cause you to fail. being lazy will and blaming the weed on it will. just keep smoking and fuck the rest.

ok....(sorry to bring this up cause im sure it has been discussed 100000 times before...)but does cannabis enduce psychosis?

[beachguy in thongs]

Sorry, but there has been more research done and there has been no successful tests on long-term use, big reason being that they didn't discover melatonin and pot's effects on it, until recently. 1986, I think, was when it was discovered and early 90's is when, I think, it was linked up with pot. It has been years since I did the research so I forgot.
But, did you check the resource page of the link? Their resources are a PBS program and Marijuana Anonymous. Do some of your own research but don't believe everything you read over the internet.

no it does not.. but it can cause problems for people who are pre desposed to scitzaphrenia [ sorry bout the spelling] if you dont have a whole hell of a lot going on for you upstairs then weed may not be the best thing for you ..but it is far less dangerous than giving alcohol to a mentaly unstabble person..some people get paranoid from weed..i have always thought this is because the person suffering from the paranoia has other problems like low self esteem or are always to concerned about what other's may think about them..when in reality they should be worried about what they think of themselve's .i could give a flying fuck at a rolling doughnut what any one on the planet thinks of me ..but i do care enough about my self to do what i think is best for myself. and what i believe is best for me is using cannibis on a daily basis to help keep me from choking the life out of all the morons in this world who keep saying that weed is dangerous becuase the govt said it is,,
