More WEED News.. Cancer Risks Played Down

Dr Robert Melamede, of the University of Colorado, said that, while chemically the two were similar, tobacco was more carcinogenic.

He said the difference was mainly due to nicotine in tobacco, whereas cannabis may inhibit cancer because of the presence of the chemical THC.

Not really what I ment by posting the article, but rather to serve as balance to all the "crap" we've been feed for years about how it is more carcinogenic than tobacco, and besides, what do you care what peoples "excuses" are for smoking pot? Sounds like you take personal offense to what other people do.

no, not at all. I have no problem with people smoking pot or legalization or any of that, what the hell do I care.

just a chuckle i have when i hear stuff like this. my favorite is "it's not as bad as drinking." the fact that it is compared to something else that is worse, and for some that is used to justify "well, its better than..." is what makes me loly, that is all.

I did not mean to insinuate that was what you were doing at all and if i offended you, i offer my apologies.

Exactly.

In all honesty I think the Meth epidemic in this country should be the main thing that the goverment needs to worry about (in the war against drugs that is)

no apology nessesary...
fair enough, I totally agree with you that its stupid to rationalize smoking pot by comparing it to drinking or whatever, and I am under no illusions as to what the consequences my own habits may be. sounds like we're both "keepin it real"

No fucking shit. This is where some good honest education would do some real good. Only problem is that they have lied so many times it would probbaly fall on deaf ears.
