4 Times More Cancer-Causing Tar in Pot Than Cigarettes /
SMOKING three cannabis joints will cause you to inhale the same amount of toxic chemicals as a whole packet of cigarettes, according to research published in France today.
Cannabis smoke contains seven times more tar and carbon monoxide, the French National Consumers' Institute concluded in research published in the April edition of its monthly magazine.

LONDON — New findings on marijuana's damaging effect on the brain show the drug triggers temporary psychotic symptoms in some people, including hallucinations and paranoid delusions, doctors say. British doctors took brain scans of 15 healthy volunteers given small doses of two of the active ingredients of cannabis, as well as a placebo. The results, to be presented at an international mental health conference in London
There are also many long-term health consequences of marijuana use. According to the National Institutes of Health, 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 dayMarijuana contains more than 400 chemicals, including most of the harmful substances found in tobacco smoke.
Marijuana is an addictive drug1 with significant health consequences to its users and others. Many harmful short-term and long-term problems have been documented with its use. 1Herbert Kleber, Mitchell Rosenthal, "Drug Myths from Abroad: Leniency is Dangerous, not Compassionate" Foreign Affairs Magazine, September/October 1998.

In recent years there has been a dramatic increase in the number of emergency room mentions of marijuana use. From 1993-2000, the number of emergency room marijuana mentions more than tripled. Marijuana use often results in adverse health consequences to abusers, placing a burden on medical services.
For those reasons, the Institute of Medicine concluded that there is little future in smoked marijuana as a medically approved medication.8 8"Marijuana and Medicine: Assessing the Science Base," Institute of Medicine, 1999.
Any determination of a drug's valid medical use must be based on the best available science undertaken by medical professionals. The Institute of Medicine conducted a comprehensive study in 1999 to assess the potential health benefits of marijuana and its constituent cannabinoids. The study concluded that smoking marijuana is not recommended for the treatment of any disease condition. In addition, there are more effective medications currently available.
Users can become dependent on marijuana to the point they must seek treatment to stop abusing it. In 1999, more than 200,000 Americans entered substance abuse treatment primarily for marijuana abuse and dependence. Attending MA, Marijuana Anonymous just like Alcoholics Anonymous.
Advocates have promoted the use of marijuana to treat medical conditions such as glaucoma. However, this is a good example of more effective medicines already available. According to the Institute of Medicine, there are six classes of drugs and multiple surgical techniques that are available to treat glaucoma that effectively slow the progression of this disease by reducing high intraocular pressure.
In other studies, smoked marijuana has been shown to cause a variety of health problems, including cancer, respiratory problems, increased heart rate, loss of motor skills, and increased heart rate. Furthermore, marijuana can affect the immune system by impairing the ability of T-cells to fight off infections, demonstrating that marijuana can do more harm than good in people with already compromised immune systems.9
In addition, in a recent study by the Mayo Clinic, THC was shown to be less effective than standard treatments in helping cancer patients regain lost appetites.10 10"Marijuana Appetite Boost Lacking in Cancer Study" The New York Times, May 13, 2001.
The risk of using cocaine has been estimated to be more than 104 times greater for those who have tried marijuana than for those who have never tried it.12 12Marijuana: Facts Parents Need to Know, National Institute on Drug Abuse, National Institutes of Health.
Consider also that drug use, including marijuana, contributes to crime. A large percentage of those arrested for crimes test positive for marijuana. Nationwide, 40 percent of adult males tested positive for marijuana at the time of their arrest.

In a 6-3 split decision. Justice Paul Stevens said that congress has a moral responsibility to change the nation's laws regarding medical cannabis use for medical patients. In writing the decision, Justice Stevens did not find that the federal government did not exceed its authority under law when federal government officers raided medical marijuana patients with California state recommendations
The city of Long Beach is looking into prosecuting dispensaries and other businesses that provide medical marijuana, City prosecutor Tom Reeves issued an editorial that essentially amounts to kicking in the door with guns blazing. Reeves directly relates dispensaries to "a drug dealer standing on the corner" and disputes the notion of the businesses as caregivers.
In August, Cooley and Sheriff Lee Baca informed all county mayors and police chiefs via letter that they considered such over-the-counter sales as ILLEGAL, including encouraging cities to permanently ban the dispensaries
Steve Cooley, District Attorney for Los Angeles County said Thursday, all medical marijuana over-the-counter sales dispensaries will be prosecuted, targeting a practice which the initiative approved by California voters over a decade ago. Saying the vast majority of dispensaries in Los Angeles County, about a 100% of which are operating and dealing marijuana illegally in the city, need to be dealt with
The CIC determined that marijuana smoke was clearly shown, through scientifically valid testing according to generally accepted principles, to cause cancer. Consequently, marijuana smoke is being added to the Proposition 65 list, pursuant to Title 27, California Code of Regulations, section 25305(a)(1) (formerly Title 22, California Code of Regulations, section 12305(a)(1)).
Marijuana smoke is being listed under Proposition 65 as known to the State to cause cancer
No, don't tax me. Allow me to keep my money and send my children to private school.
Fuck this approach to getting the government's foot off of our necks by paying them. Extortion rackets are not something we should EVER give sanction to, nor should we continue to sanction the violation of our individual rights!
Decriminalize ALL things that adults choose for themselves, that don't violate the rights of others.
I agree with that except that taxation has not hurt alchohol sales . If we cut our ridiculous military budget(over 600 billion for 2010 ) we could pay for all kinds of things without any new taxes . Republicans have tried to blame taxes on welfare , which is about 5 % the cost of our military . I would rather see a tax on pot than see people jailed . Decriminalization is the worst of both worlds , still illegal, and zero tax revenue . Legalisation is the only way to go .
i live in california and watch my fair share of tv. i have only seen jokes about this but never the actual ad. i realize this is probably a funding thing but............ it is such a huge topic right now that that thing should be given a spot on the news at least. beyond the web, its almost a blackout on the media side.
when the hell is Oklahoma going to be considered for legalization i know its a far fetched thing to think of but it would be nice to hear some actual thought put into it
I have a god giving right to Cannabis. If it was not safe why does the FDA have Marinol on the market?. Do some reading and you will see who is right and who is wrong. Then vote on it!!!!!!!!!!!!! Legalize it..
That's a little extreme but I think we'd have more freedoms if more people thought along the same lines. As it is right now, we're all seen as worker drones in a massive system that values human freedom only to the extent that it increases productivity. Laws are designed to protect the collective more than the individual; as a result, we have a higher percentage of our population in prison than any other country. We may have more material wealth as a whole, but only as a brainwashed mob.
this world needs to understand, we are willing to pay taxes for this, we are willing to pay our share to this plant safer than alcohol that could save everything. California is tearing apart..face it. LEGALIZE
Agreed. But seriously, it goes to show you how misplaced and idiotic our government is when science is quite definitely against them... and when they are willing to continue to IGNORE people who FUCKING WANT TO PAY MONEY TO THE GOVERNMENT.
BREAKING NEWS!!! I got pulled over by the COPS, handcuffed & put in the back of the car. All the while, my kids & me were calling on the name of YAHWEH, and the angels and archangels to protect me and deliver me from the hands of the enemy. 5 minutes later they let me go, no ticket no nothing! Their attitudes were COMPLETELY DIFFERENT!!!! Can't nobody tell me nothing! YAH REIGN!!
One can drink alcohol til one needs a new liver and one can smoke ciggs til one gets lung cancer. But God forbid and that the end of a work day one unwinds with a joint that one can't overdose on.
I had an idea last night when i was baked for a country where people can smoke weed all we need to do is fund raise and buy an island mabye even get celeberties to chip in like cheech and chong just an idea
Nope, the economy desparately needs a new business that is legal. Just think that in order for people to afford cannabis, they need to work and working is good for business. Cops would no longer focus on nabbing a robber for possessing MJ but focus more on the actual crime. If the courts, prison system and the hands of investigators are free of stoners, then they can focus on theifs, murderers and rapists. MJ can really clean our society if it is regulated and taught to be used responsibly.
thats why i dont think it will work pot is supposed to b something u can grow in your fuckin backyard it aint supposed to b illegal or even taxed and regulated prohibition aint working and niether the tax and regulation of it would work.
no if you totally decriminalize marijuana any smoker could grow his or her own crop, smoke whatever they wanted whenever they wanted. legalization implies taxation and legality of possession, not the ability to grow.
ya but nit everyone knows how to grow or have the equipment for it and we are lazy we can make fries and burgers for cheap but mllions of us still go to mcdonalds. IT would also allow gangs to have control of some selling instead of government famrner and medical marijuana gorwers having control of growing and selling and taxing growing would be allowed why wouldnt it be as long as it mets some kind of code and you have a safe enviorment and space and stuff u need to grow
Lets put it this way so you can understand my point. Right now we are in a Prohibition much like alcohol was under at one point. When they decriminalized alcohol did the Al Capone types still continue to run speak easy's and what not? No, because the profit was no longer there, they turned around to legitimate bars, yeah you still need a permit to serve alcohol in a public place, but in private you can serve, consume, and create whatever kind of alcohol you want.
No I undertand both sides we just wont know until a law is writtin but as like alchohol and tobacco you can grow them if you want legally not to many do so i dont see why it would be any different for weed bc all in all even if you can grow not too many will do it its not easy you know its a 3-6 month process which take time money and equipment for certain strains of bud

Consider who stands to loose money from the legalisation of cannabis,Dwell on that ,, Think of the lives lost and lives ruined,Innocents ..Old women and children.This is an issue that touchs people very intimately ,, people who have never touched an illegal substance.20 billion dollars a year ,, People die in a charade played out for 20 billion dollars a year .Never one ounce of progress is made.But we cut a check every year ,Want to see the results? Click my name and read the comment section..
Saying that people want to pay taxes on it is pushing it too far!
We want to legalize marijuana as it is a constitutional right to pocess and consume it as it is a victimless crime and not because it can bring in money!!!!!!
You're right, but it doesn't really matter in the end. Once it's legal I'll grow it out front and regulation can lick my hairy ass. That's the beautiful thing about it. It's s weed. We could start sowing it all over the sides of roads, like it used to be...
But yeah, fuck taxes. I have no intention of giving the state any of my money. This is just a talking point right now. In the end, Uncle Sam can suck a dick.
No shit - legalization, taxation, and regulation is the only way this is going to happen. The legalization that you speak of is never going to happen so you might as well drop it from your mind. People will never want their kids to be able to legally get their hands on pot.
And no need to be a faggot about it. We are on the same side here... I'm assuming.
Anyone who has ever smoked weed knows that it should be legal just as everyone that has had a beer knows that alcohol should be legal. We aren't a Land of the Free until we can do whatever we want to ourselves without harming others.
You're right, but most people who are adamant about prohibition are people who have never tried the substance they fight against. It is unknown to them, so they fear it and fight it. Same applies to any drug. I used to think acid was 'bad', but once I tried it I realized that it, just like tobacco, alcohol, and weed, is nothing to be afraid of. In fact, illegal drugs account for less than 10,000 deaths a year, while alcohol takes 100,000 and tobacco kills 440,000. Prohibitionists are ignorant.
It's important to note that not one of the 10,000 deaths from "illegal drugs" is directly related to the ingestion of cannabis - the most widely used illicit substance. "Zero tolerance" and supply control without effective harm reduction compounds the social issues involved.
Far more harmful substances than this are legal and regulated.
That's right. The most dangerous illegal drugs are cocaine and heroin, which are addictive and can cause OD death. Funny thing is, heroin is just an opiate like so many legal prescription medicines and cocaine is a purified stimulant similar to caffeine. These illegal drugs are already legal and available in many forms. Hell, you can order coca leaves online as a tea and grow opium poppies in your back yard. Yet cannabis, with 0 social harm, is demonized and not allowed in any form.
Yes, and it sucks in comparison. There are helper canabinoids in natural cannabis that aren't found in synthetic THC. The more expensive, non-natural. less effective form is the one that's legal. Say 'hello' to the pharmaceutical industrial complex.
Weed helps me study. I can lose myself reading for hours on end when I'm high. Not so easy when I'm not. It has been seriously recommended by some doctors for ADD. Better than giving kids prescription methamphetamine, don't you think?
It affects people differently and it can be used in various scenarios. It also depends on the strain. You can use it to help study, relax, discuss, watch TV, 'trip', sleep, and stay awake, all depending on multiple variables. It's a diverse medicine.

Looking at the 9 thumbs down you have for your comment vs the 3 green thumbs up I have~I would have to conclude that you're in fact the "dumb fuck"! I have SO MUCH EVIDENCE supporting the positive benefits of marijuana for medicinal purposes that I can't list it all on you tube!
I am a pot smoker myself but i disagree with what you just said. A plant can be a drug. However just because it is a drug doesn't mean it should be illegal.
drugs (in German "drogen", in Nederlands "droog") are dried plants (medical effective), "drugs are any animal, vegetable, or mineral substance used in the composition of medicines; any stuff used in dyeing or in chemical operations" - Webster 1913
The reason that alcohol haven't improved the economy is because many crimes and police resources are used on what drunk people do. Cannabis, does not make you violent or as irresponsible as it makes you when you're under the influence of alcohol.
If you look at a crime scheme and compare it to alcohol consumption, they follow eachother pretty good.
I don't smoke weed anymore, and according to your profile your 19, so I am older than you, making you the kid... So do yourself a favor and do some research, knowledge is power arm yourself.
Sorry to say bro, but lifesblood is right. Have you ever smoke a single drag of a cigarette? Have you ever took even a tiny sip of alcohol? If you have then you have already taken gateway steps to using "HD" that are worse then Cannabis. So are you a heroin addict, or maybe vicodin?
If you want to pay taxes, THEN PAY THEM ASSHOLE! Nothing is stopping you from sending the government a big fat check as a donation. IN fact, just keep track of how much you use and send a check you stupid bitch.
Also, you want these services you talk about than STOP GIVING GOVERNMENT SERVICES TO ILLEGAL ALIENS! !!! They are not entitled to them. The only government they are entitled to is a prison cell or a deportation ride back home.

Advocates have promoted the use of marijuana to treat medical conditions such as glaucoma. However, this is a good example of more effective medicines already available. According to the Institute of Medicine, there are six classes of drugs and multiple surgical techniques that are available to treat glaucoma that effectively slow the progression of this disease by reducing high intraocular pressure.

In other studies, smoked marijuana has been shown to cause a variety of health problems, including cancer, respiratory problems, increased heart rate, loss of motor skills, and increased heart rate. Furthermore, marijuana can affect the immune system by impairing the ability of T-cells to fight off infections, demonstrating that marijuana can do more harm than good in people with already compromised immune systems.9

The city of Long Beach is looking into prosecuting dispensaries and other businesses that provide medical marijuana, City prosecutor Tom Reeves issued an editorial that essentially amounts to kicking in the door with guns blazing.

I agree with that except that taxation has not hurt alchohol sales . If we cut our ridiculous military budget(over 600 billion for 2010 ) we could pay for all kinds of things without any new taxes . Republicans have tried to blame taxes on welfare , which is about 5 % the cost of our military . I would rather see a tax on pot than see people jailed . Decriminalization is the worst of both worlds , still illegal, and zero tax revenue . Legalisation is the only way to go .

That's a little extreme but I think we'd have more freedoms if more people thought along the same lines. As it is right now, we're all seen as worker drones in a massive system that values human freedom only to the extent that it increases productivity. Laws are designed to protect the collective more than the individual; as a result, we have a higher percentage of our population in prison than any other country. We may have more material wealth as a whole, but only as a brainwashed mob.

Nope, the economy desparately needs a new business that is legal. Just think that in order for people to afford cannabis, they need to work and working is good for business. Cops would no longer focus on nabbing a robber for possessing MJ but focus more on the actual crime. If the courts, prison system and the hands of investigators are free of stoners, then they can focus on theifs, murderers and rapists. MJ can really clean our society if it is regulated and taught to be used responsibly.

IT would also allow gangs to have control of some selling instead of government famrner and medical marijuana gorwers having control of growing and selling and taxing growing would be allowed why wouldnt it be as long as it mets some kind of code and you have a safe enviorment and space and stuff u need to grow
Click2HelpLegalizeIT 2 years ago
Lets put it this way so you can understand my point. Right now we are in a Prohibition much like alcohol was under at one point. When they decriminalized alcohol did the Al Capone types still continue to run speak easy's and what not? No, because the profit was no longer there, they turned around to legitimate bars, yeah you still need a permit to serve alcohol in a public place, but in private you can serve, consume, and create whatever kind of alcohol you want.
ApEx1HP 2 years ago
No I undertand both sides we just wont know until a law is writtin but as like alchohol and tobacco you can grow them if you want legally not to many do so i dont see why it would be any different for weed bc all in all even if you can grow not too many will do it its not easy you know its a 3-6 month process which take time money and equipment for certain strains of bud

You're right, but most people who are adamant about prohibition are people who have never tried the substance they fight against. It is unknown to them, so they fear it and fight it. Same applies to any drug. I used to think acid was 'bad', but once I tried it I realized that it, just like tobacco, alcohol, and weed, is nothing to be afraid of. In fact, illegal drugs account for less than 10,000 deaths a year, while alcohol takes 100,000 and tobacco kills 440,000. Prohibitionists are ignorant.
empbac 2 years ago 9
It's important to note that not one of the 10,000 deaths from "illegal drugs" is directly related to the ingestion of cannabis - the most widely used illicit substance. "Zero tolerance" and supply control without effective harm reduction compounds the social issues involved.
Far more harmful substances than this are legal and regulated.
ChoofMonster 2 years ago 3
That's right. The most dangerous illegal drugs are cocaine and heroin, which are addictive and can cause OD death. Funny thing is, heroin is just an opiate like so many legal prescription medicines and cocaine is a purified stimulant similar to caffeine. These illegal drugs are already legal and available in many forms. Hell, you can order coca leaves online as a tea and grow opium poppies in your back yard. Yet cannabis, with 0 social harm, is demonized and not allowed in any form.

The reason that alcohol haven't improved the economy is because many crimes and police resources are used on what drunk people do. Cannabis, does not make you violent or as irresponsible as it makes you when you're under the influence of alcohol.
