i've never met ONE pothead who thought it was healthy. The question is only in how UNHEALTHY it is... and seriously.. a joint containing the "badness" of 7 ciggies is nothing. For a starters most use bongs which filter the smoke.. and a joint is a few cones.. for your average person who might smoke on the weekend a few cones is enough (or too much depending on how strong it is) and filtered it's probably 5 ciggies worth.. so whats that - 5 ciggies a week? walking across a busy road in the city has the carbon monoxide of HALF A PACKET of ciggies..

people object not so much because they think it's healthy, they object because in the relative sense it's not worth worrying about but must constantly be reminded about it with spin on the information.
