But because this 72-year-old "father of medical pot" dies of lung cancer you all come out of the woodwork screaming "see, pot causes lung cancer!" It's childish and goes against all of the statistics. We have been over this ad nauseam, yet you people are like the Eveready "to spread misinformation" Bunny.
You have a right to your opinion, even if it's wrong.
The genie is out of the bottle, so why are so many trying to put it back in?
Tobacco is legal
Alcohol is legal
Recreational pot is legal in 8 (soon to be more) states, and 30 for medical. It's not going to go back to the medieval times some seem to love.
Stop acting like tea totaling prohibitionists, it makes you all look like ugly authoritarians.
Smoking pot is a health risk, no way around it.
All the meanwhile cigarette smoking is banned from a lot of places, because of the health risk.
But pushing pot to be legal. Great message to our youth.
Pretty sick that you're using this mans death to get your yuks.
Marijuana can cause lung cancer? If this was true the cases of lung cancer among people who didn`t smoke cigarettes would be soaring at this time and researchers would be shouting about it from the rooftops. This is an old article but Web MD is pretty reliable. https://www.webmd.com/lung-cancer/ne...-lung-cancer#1

I do not believe WEbMD is completely reliable.
There are several articls out there on it.
All the smoke and mirrors and thread derailling doesn’t take away from the fact that it is pretty darn plain and simple, put something in your lungs other than O2 and gases, it could cause a problem.
Mayo Clinic vs. WebMD: Another Perspective | TIME.com
The New York Times Magazine on Sunday included a rather befuddling column by departing writer Virginia Heffernan. It recommended that people seeking medical information online block WebMD’s results from their searches, because “with the site’s (admitted) connections to pharmaceutical and other companies, WebMD has become permeated with pseudomedicine and subtle misinformation.”

The number of documented cases (zero) out of millions of long-term users is smoke and mirrors? Wow.
Regardless, nice job of ignoring the other links.

You're hilarious when it comes to WebMD. You quote them as fact in your posts whenever their articles matches what you want, but call them unreliable otherwise.

Of course nothing you inhale is harmless but is lung cancer caused by marijuana? Nope. WebMD is only one of the three links I provided. A UCLA researcher spent 30 years researching this issue and he too came up empty.
