How can you say it's not bad for your health? I know it's bad; my whole family smokes it and I used to as well. I've seen what it does. It causes you to age a lot quicker and it destroys your lungs. Saying it has no bad health side effects is a plain lie; I don't care where you got it from, I know it's a lie.
Sure, smoking is inherently bad... But I'm saying you can eat it, drink it, and vaporize it -- yet you ignore these facts. Are you saying THC itself is bad for you health? Because that's just not true.

Believe it or not THC occurs naturally in the CB1 receptor and its splice variant CB1A, found predominantly in the brain with highest densities in the hippocampus, cerebellum and striatum.

(How THC Affects The Brain)

Are you saying your family wouldn't be mentally challenged had they not smoked marijuana? That's nonsense.

I have a family that is full of cancer, limes disease, and paralysis -- all of whom smoke marijuana for various medicinal purposes, yet you ignore me as though I don't have any "personal" experience.

There are legal alternatives at your local health store that are far more dangerous and unstudied.

Marijuana is PROVEN to have MEDICAL BENEFITS (your argument to the contrary is flat out ignorance)

People have addictive personalities, they get addicted to things it happens. People are addicted to porn and gambling, but theses things are not in themselves addictive. Its the person who enjoys it so much that they become addicted to it. This is the same for marijuana. You cant blame the product for that, just the people using it.
This sums it up... now close this ****** topic.
