    The anti-weed forces commissioned these studies to start at it is bad and reverse engineer the study to come to that conclusion. It is a well-developed industry, every company engaged in using and improperly disposing of toxic chemicals does the same thing. Marijuana is not bad for you. If you use toxic pesticides, that would be bad for you. Or contaminated dirt to grow it.

      It’s not marijuana itself that’s bad, but how you consume it and what you do when you’re high.

      If you’re smoking it you risk lung cancer. If you’re eating low nutrition, high calorie food while you’re high without exercising, you risk other diseases. This article is about that.
