Drug Fans: More Teens Smoke Weed Than Cigarettes; The War On Drugs Has Failed

[Kalidurga]

26. I am not advocating that people should smoke marijuana

however, it is less dangerous than cigarettes. There is no increase in neck or lung cancer. There are less than half the carcinogens in marijuana as there are cigarettes, 38 to cigarettes 79. Most people probably no one, would develop a two pack a day habit of smoking marijuana cigarettes. Most will smoke a half a joint and be done. I have never seen anyone act in an impaired manner from smoking a joint. I have never seen anyone assaulted or battered by someone who is under the influence of marijuana. Yet, this plant that occurs in nature is illegal. I find it odd that something that causes so much less death and destruction than cigarettes and alcohol is illegal.
