  1. Uh, excuse me, but saying no marijuana-only smoker ever had lung cancer DOES imply it prevents cancer since it is well known that lung cancer has been found in people who never smoked anything.

  2. Nah. Thjey just drank so much Guinness they forgot the original date. HAMMER: Originally employed as a weapon of war, the hammer nowadays is used as a kind of divining rod to locate the most expensive parts adjacent the object we are trying to hit.
  3. No, it says there is no documented case of a marijuana-only smoker having lung cancer. Big difference. They can't say it prevents cancer since, as you know, there is no evidence of that, so they conveniently put in a bullshit statement that they cannot prove, it can only be disproved. But to do that would require access to private medical records and personal history.

  5. Now we are getting somewhere. In order for a case to qualify it would have to meet three criteria: Lung cancer would have to be diagnosed, the parient would have to be proven to have smoked marijuana and only marijuana...not a single puff of tobacco, and it would have to be fully documented. The first is the easiest to meet. Just eliminate everyone who never had lung cancer fro the study group. The third is quite a bit tougher, but possible. It is the second requirement, that they smoked weed and only weed, that is impossible to prove or sustantiate. Hence, their claim is bullshit and detracts from what otherwise could have been a convincing article.

  6. Once again, what makes you believe that the statement, "There has never been a documented case of lung cancer in a marijuana-only smoker", implies that marijuana prevents cancer? Are you messing with me or can you really not see it?

  7. Excuse me, but I did read all the report. Just because it is in print doesn't mean it makes sense or is factual. Once again, for them to say there has neven been a documanted case of a marijuana-only smoker getting lung cancer is complete bullshit unless they went and checked the backgrounds of each and every person who ever had lung cancer and medical records were kept for. Something we can be pretty sure they didn't do.

  8. I agree with the first part of your post. As long as people don't do stupid stuff to put others in harms way, I say let 'em smoke ragweed if they want. But I think it should be legalized. Treat it like booze and tobacco. Legalize it and tax the hell out of it. Turn that expenditure of a "drug war" into a profit.

  11. Uh....what part of that statement don't you understand? It's pretty simple, really. They are claiming that no marijuana-only smopker has ever had lung cancer. It doesn't say no marijuana-only smoker in the group studied, it says any. No disclaimers, no exceptions. I'm pretty sure they didn't check the smoking history of every person who ever died of cancer to see if they smoked cigs, weed, or both. Therefore their statement is ridiculous and unfounded. The site goes on to say that there is not enough statistical significance to say with any degree of certainty what effect, if any, marijuana has on cancer. Two unrelated statements unless you believe, or want to believe, that weed prevents cancer.

  12. I have no issues with 99% of what they have on the site, but that line is pure BS. I'm not saying weed causes cancer, but I doubt they did much checking on that stat. Hell, I had an aunt who never smoked anything and she died of lung cancer. I'm gonna go out on a limb here and assume you didn't read that entire section because they fully explain how and why they came to that conclusion. Do you know what the term "did not reach statistical significance" means? The statement I quoted speaks for itself and is a silly...make that stupid...conclusion. It insinuates that marijuana is some kind of miracle substance that prvents you from getting lung cancer.

  17. Yeah, you're sugar coating it. Do you seriously believe that no crime has ever been commited because of pot? Shit, dude, open your eyes. People rob and steal all the time to get money to get high. Same as with booze, cigs, candy, and food. Do you seriously believe no harm as ever come as a direct result of smoking pot? Tell that to the families of car crashes caused by people driving while high. Yeah, you're sugar coating by implying it is completely harmless. Like I said, I have nothing against people smoking it if they want. Their choice. But for fucks sake at least have the balls to acknowledge that it isn't exactly like chewing a stick of sugarless gum. There are risks involved with it's use and people who choose to smoke should be aware of those risks, whatever they may be.

  20. If somebody wants to smoke weed or drink alcohol, fine. Just as long as they do it in a manner that doesn't affect other peoples' well being. Both can cause health problems, both can cause social problems, both can be abused for decades in some individuals with no adverse effects. How can you say there has never been a serious crime directly related to the use of weed? Are you saying that any and all murders committed by somebody while stoned would have been committed sober? That nobody has ever been robbed by somebody who is broke and wants to buy a bag? That entire assertion is so far fetched I cannot figure how anybody would subscribe to it. I have no problem with people getting high. I do have issues with people trying to sugar coat the truth by saying it is harmless.
