    What about all that long-term damage of the Milk & Cookies after a smoke?

    And lets not forget that Marihuana alone is not addictive but many do mix it with tobacco, alcohol, etc and here is where it turns bad.

    I would rather see people smoking joints instead of smoking cancer sticks. At least they smell better, are better for us, and don't cause deadly accidents like alcohol does. People who are against the use of marijuana but accept cigarettes and alcohol are ignorant to the world outside their conservative lives. Don't get me wrong I'm against all dangerous drug use including cigarettes and alcohol, but marijuana is not a dangerous drug.

    Never should have been decriminalized. But I am afraid the greedy, the crazy, the gullible and the dumb make up the majority in this world

    Worse than tobacco or alcohol alone? Evidence?

    Nonsense. Sucking smoke into your lungs will cause damage whether it's tobacco, wood smoke or marijuana.

    bollfaeces - the smoke, particles, and carbon will destroy your lungs just as well as any other smoked thing - it all depends on the frequency of use...

    They do if you use them while driving.
