It all comes down to what you choose to believe. I sometimes scoff at these studies because most times you have no idea who provided the funding and why? Whether we want to believe it or not, researchers enter into experimental testing with an already preconcieved and sometimes biased notion of what they BELIEVE they will find or what they WANT to find. They literally enter into the research looking for an expected result. In this way they disregard all data that may not line up with the focus of the study. True objective research is impossible if your looking for only one outcome or they may have an agenda based on their backers.

What IS proven is that no case of lung cancer has EVER been connected with marijuana use or any other life threatening condition. I have never heard of one case where smoking pot has been the primary cause of death.

As a matter of fact there have been studies that actually showed that smoking marijuana may actually arrest the cancer if already present. Read this report which claims the opposite of what you are saying.

This one is about breast cancer:

In reference to Lung Cancer:

It doesn't take much logic to see that there is this bizarre war on marijuana that basically has no value at all. I see far more commercials on the dangers of pot and how it damages your life than other drugs AND alcohol which have 100 times more health risks than pot. This is utter bullshit. It is not addictive but the PSA commercials would have you think otherwise. They also want people to believe it ruins lives. It may, but only for those people who already either have underlying mental and social problems and those with addictive personalities who could get addicted to anything.

Why don't we see any or more PSA's on the real drugs with damaging and addictive outcomes. Drugs like Meth, Heroin, Crack, Alcohol, Huffing, the list could go on forever.

Haven't you ever asked yourself why Law Enforcment spend more money every year on trying to eradict marijuana than any other drug out there. It's all propaganda and people eat it up. If you don't believe disinformation goes on in the US you are blind.

Do a search on any of what I said and you would be surprised what you find.
