Which is to say : Nothing clear has been proven. A few complicated correlations, like cannabis and tobacco together, have been proven to be problems. However there's a lot that is unknown, because Congress makes it difficult to study the effects of cannabis.
I personally find baseless scientific claims to be offensive, because you're basically lying to us and expecting us to believe it. However I realize that some people are OK just making facts up as they go along.
We didn't know this until we learned more about Bladder Cancer.
Also certain areas seems to have water that causes Bladder Cancer and that was shocking to hear.
But never having lived in these areas, we can eliminate that as a cause.
Grand parents owned a cigar manufacturer so combined of dealing with Family who smoked a pack a day, each of them. For at leest sixty years and for the person having This Form of cacer to have lives for approx Twente years in a home with smokers day and night might be seen as the number one cause.
With a family member dealing with bladder Cancer which is the leading cause of smoking as well for Lung Cancer, smoking being cause #1, will not Marijuana increases the amount of people suffering from Cancer in the near and far future?
When you walk through the hall ways of Moffitt and other Cancer centers you can't get away from the horrific images of people of all ages, all backgrounds and ho are trying to overcome Cancer!
In my families case the number one cause seems to be that the entire family was smoking inside the house since the birth. Back in the days it wasn't so well known how second hand smoke could cause serious issues.
Now we know.
Smoking electronic sigarettes will soon be proven to cause harm as nicotine seems to be part of this form of usuagw.
Marijuana is often smoked and is there a difference between regular sigarettes and smoking a blunt?
Please advise your family members and let them walk through a Cancer Center and see what smoking can do to Your body.

Cigarettes and other tobacco products are mass produced, and have many other chemicals added to them, its THESE that actually do the damage to a person, not the tobacco itself.

It has already happened in my state of Mass. where a guy got his medical pot, smoked it in the parking lot which is "not allowed" and drove into a state trooper that had made a traffic stop killing him.
We have enough problems with distracted drivers and adding pot to the list of impairments is going to do nothing but increase the carnage.
At least on the bright side if I do get run over by a pot head and I survive I can smoke dope to ease my pain without fear of being arrested.
Given the choice, I'd much rather take my chances with a stoned driver than a black-out drunk driver. The stoned driver's greatest infraction is likely to be driving too slow.
