Nicotine can be taken without smoking it as well.

No injuries from cannabis? I DOUBT that. "Cigarettes" or nicotine DO come in vaporizers, it's called an E-Cig.

You are correct, I forgot about e-cigs.

The only 'injuries' I suspect cannabis causes are the very same ones most any carcinogens that are inhaled from smoke would cause. However, the point many people here have made is that our govt (and many others) are deliberately trying to suggest marijuana has some inherent naturally occurring properties that make it more dangerous to smoke than other substances. These claims even have people believing this voodoo aspect of marijuana is more dangerous to smoke than tobacco cigarettes containing man-made (and many times poisonous) chemicals such as benzene, formaldehyde (yes, THAT formaldehyde), ammonia, acetone (aka one bad-ass paint stripper), etc.

I think one would be hard pressed to claim smoking ANYTHING is not harmful at some point, but if our govt claims it is worse than smoking acetone and formaldehyde, maybe you should ask yourself... why?

Im not proud of it, but I can honestly say Ive smoked more pot than probably any three jamaicans, rock stars, or snoop dogg, combined. I lived in Cali and (legally) grew it for many years (for personal consumption only). I can honestly say it has some negative long-term affects. But I can also say I 'abused' the substance, rather than 'used' it. Id be the first to deter a young person from starting a marijuana habit without at least educating themselves on the possible consequences first. The problem with that is, we cant even trust our own govt to give us the straight story on the consequences of its abuse. Id also be the first person to stand up for an individual's right to make their own choices. Id simply prefer to see those choices made based on knowledge, rather than speculation and fear tactics.

100 percent agreed. You really can't believe anything the government tells you. They are trying to ban E-Cigs claiming that they are possibly more harmful then real cigs. Hell I used to smoke a lot of weed a few years ago and it def had negative side affects on me personally. Memory loss, laziness, over-eating, anxiety, introverted personality, etc. Just wondering what kind of negatives that weed had on you?

So you were a dumb, fat, loser and your blaming it on the weed? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

Whatever you say man. You don't know me so don't try to judge me like that. I'm back to normal now, but this was about four years ago. When I was smoking A LOT of weed I began to get lazy, and developed an introverted personality among other things like "smokers cough" and low testosterone levels. Weed never really benefited me in any single way. I wasted A LOT of money, got in trouble with the law and nearly fucked up my life. I was never lazy or had anxiety issues for that matter until weed. I HIGHLY support personal freedoms and in no way am I anti weed. Just throwing my PERSONAL experiences with weed out there.

Im not as sharp mentally as I once was. Im not *that* old yet, and Ive never been much of a drinker, so I assume/speculate that all that pot affected me in this manner. Im also confident my lungs are pretty well shot at this point, but I smoke cigs too. It use to make me paranoid as hell also, especially if I was out in public stoned. But one day I realized... there's a lot of fucking weird people in this world, medicated or not, so i came to the realization if I acted a little odd, people would probably think Im just another one of those weirdos instead of assuming Im stoned. After realizing that, the paranoia went almost completely away. Hell Ive talked to cops while stoned, and didnt even think about that fact until the encounter was over.

Not judging you, it just sounds like your using weed as your scape goat. I smoke a lot too and I'm a fully functioning member of society, and just got straight A's in my 4th year of Electrical Engineering. I was introverted and overweight before I started smoking and since then, I've actually met a lot of new people, gone out a lot more, and started eating better & exercising (thus losing weight). It's all about your personal choices man, you can blame the weed if you want, but in the end, your making your own decisions.
