I've never understood why tobacco is horrible, awful, and so forth but

smoking marijuana is no big deal.  Both contain chemicals that mess with your brain(and more), but somehow grass is magically no problem.

Smoking anything is a problem but few marijuana users smoke 20 joints each day. Plus, lots of edible forms of cannabis are marketed in the free states but other than nicotine gum tobacco isn’t really edible.

Inhaling any gaseous and particulate emissions from a burning substance are likely bad for you.

But that is a separate issue on whether THC and nicotine and other chemicals with active biological effect have a benign or negative impact on people.

The data on marijuana keeps getting worse, particularly for brains that are not yet fully developed. The data on nicotine is pretty much static at this point.

You already have one, but be prepared for the Mary Jane mafia or defenders of weed as I call them to deflect any issues of harm or concern with their revered plant.

I just read an article about weed smokers and a study done on them over 20 years. Seems smoking weed has some kind of detrimental affect on your DNA.

Because double standards are the only standards liberals have. Most folks I associate with either dislike both or are OK with tobacco but not pot. One alters your brain function and that is the problem. Seems that Hollywood still loves guns and cigs in movies; while most people are OK with them in real life.

What's funny is that nicotine is actually better for you than CBD.

And anyone who mentions medical marijuana and then bases their purchases on the elevated THC content is full of crap.

I especially love it when pot smokers are allowed to do it in public and tobacco smokers aren't.
