Does Smoking Marijuana Cause Lung Cancer? Is Smoking Cigarettes Less Damaging Than Smoking Weed Is?

[Grantley]

Putting ANY smoke into your lungs is dangerous and stupid.

I've smoked weed for 2 years almost every day, sometimes multiple times a day but no cigarettes. Nothing has happened to me yet. I know lots of people 18-30 years old that have been smoking weed and cigarettes every day many times a day since they were like 12. Nothing has happened yet but I'm sure it will once they are 40 or 50 years old. It pisses me off when stoners always post things about 0% chance of dying from weed and how good it is for you and it cures cancer. That's all hype, it can cause mental illness, in some people, HPPD, lung problems, or problems with people who have high blood pressure. ITS SMOKE, it can't cure cancer if you smoke it, maybe if you use hemp oil but not smoke.

No it doesn't.

Ciggs are the devil. Stay away. Marijuana is fairly safe, putting smoke in your lungs isn't good no matter what you're smoking though.


Marijuana is safer than both cigarettes and alcohol.

Smoking one joint is like smoking 5 cigs :)
