10 Facts About Marijuana

Fact: Marijuana use is not associated with elevated cancer risk as shown in preclinical studies.

Several longitudinal studies have established that even long-term marijuana smoking is not associated with elevated cancer risk, including tobacco-related cancers or with colorectal, lung, melanoma, prostate, breast or cervix.

A 2009 population-based case-control study found that moderate marijuana smoking over a 20-year period was associated with reduced risk of head and neck cancer. And a five-year-long population-based case-control study found even long-term heavy marijuana smoking was not associated with lung cancer or upper aerodigestive tract cancers.[5]

In fact, some of the chemicals in marijuana, such as THC and especially CBD, have been found to induce tumor cell death and show potential as effective tools in treating cancer. Scientists who have conducted this type of research, such as UCLA’s Donald Tashkin, hypothesize that the anti-oxidant properties of cannabis might override any cancer causing chemicals found in marijuana smoke, therefore protecting the body against the impact of smoking. Newer research indicates that marijuana has anti-cancer properties and could one day unlock new cancer treatments.

Moreover, marijuana smoking is not associated with any other permanent lung harms, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD), emphysema or reduced lung function – even after years of frequent use. [6]

The Top Five Special Interest Groups Lobbying To Keep Marijuana Illegal


The prestige of government has undoubtedly been lowered considerably by the Prohibition law.

For nothing is more destructive of respect for the government and the law of the land

than passing laws which cannot be enforced.

It is an open secret that the dangerous increase of crime in this country

is closely connected with this..

What more can be said?

While I think that smoked marijuana is not a good medicine (it's exponentially better to press the juice of the fresh plant),

there is no reason on earth it should be illegal.

Marijuana a "gateway" drug? What do you think alcohol and tobacco are? Try to find a junkie who doesn't also do one or both.

Marijuana bad for health? Compared to alcohol which is at the root of an alarmingly high percentage of violence and deaths on the road.

Marijuana law enforcement is hypocrisy to the nth degree. It's a big business for cops, lawyers, judges and jailers -

a huge percentage of whom are substance abusers themselves (steroids, alcohol, cocaine, and even marijuana itself.)

It's also a form of social control.

Need a reason to hassle otherwise law abiding people?

"Drugs" give the excuse..
