5 Joints a Week Equal a Box a Day?

[Funkamander]

He said 5 joints per week. And, believe it or not, there's paper on cigs as well.

Plus, it's from the government. Literally, no way they're not bullshitting.

This is nuts.. .. ..

And people who say you don't get cancer from smoking weed, are mistaking..

Everything now a days is deemed to cause cancer.. .. .. Believe it or not, cannabis is amongst them.. No one can say anything for sure about cannabis.. The tests ain't thorogh enough.. It's illegal, therefor hard to experiment with..

But, tests in the US do vouch for cannabis to be a good medicin.. Against alot of things.. And it's healthier than alot of other mind altering substances.. F.eks. Alchohol.. Weed is more gental on you're body and health..

I'm not going more into this now, but it does cause cancer.. but 5 joints a week are not equivalant to 20 cigs a day..


Later!

the other person here has it right. Cannabis is not grown in radioactive soil. Tobacco is. Tars arent causing the cancer. It's the radiation in the tars that cause the cancer. This is why we see hundreds of thousands of tobacco users suffering from lung cancer, and no cannabis smokers. Not only is tobacco grown in R.A. soil, it is fed by spraying the complete leaf with growth hormones, unlike cannabis.

dai*ma :thumbsup:

Yes, its the radioactivity.

The point here is that we are not putting telephones and tobacco in the same line, because the other one of those doesent cause much cancer. Yet they do put weed AHEAD of tobacco, the bastard retards. I want to stomp some face in the gutter right now.

We need the lung cancer rate in Amsterdam!

First of all, you can buy hemp papers which negate the extra harmfull effects of inhaling papers, since it's all pretty much the same stuff.

Second, anti-drug groups use the terms "carcinogens" and "chemicals" interchangably, which is totally innapropriate because having more cancer causing carcinogens does not mean it has all the other harmfull chemicals of cigs.

[P.E.N.G.U.I.N.]

Or you can use a vaporizer, which negates ALL harmful effects of cannabis.

I want one so bad

[WakingDream]

I read that a vaporizer high is different then a high you get when you smoke. The vapor contains only THC whereas when you burn the pot you get some of the other cannaboids that also have effects.

Hey I just read some information on a drug awareness site, but I am thinking that it is just some anti-drug BS. I'm not sure though. If anyone has any info that would be great.

"Studies show that someone who smokes five joints per week may be taking in as many cancer-causing chemicals as someone who smokes a full pack of cigarettes every day."

I got that from http://www.defenselink.mil/specials/...arijuana1.html under the cancer section.
Thanks

maybe if you smoke a doobie the size of the one in 'up in smoke' every day.

but even if cannabis smoke contained as many cancer causing chemicals as tobacco, which it does not, there would be 4 times as much in one pach as in 5 j's...

and besides, its a proven fact that THC has cancer reversing and preventing attributes

[robert42]

lmao its 100% false information.

Weed dont casue cancer. 1 of the 300 chemicals in a ciggarette does that (nicotine) but they can't remove that.... or no one would buy the fags to fund the wars.
