Looks like a reprint of a CNN story, so not sure how to handle and excerpted.

Drugs are bad for you.

I’ll have to be a better hermit then. I think I’m already going feral.

[Lurkina.n.Learnin]

This can’t be true. Weed cures everything.

[Pearls Before Swine]

What about vaping?

[RedStateRocker]

I’ve seen close to half a hundred posts about not letting ‘the cure be worse than the disease’ :-)

I’ve gotten nearly a dozen songs written and learned the melodies of a nice chunk of my Real Book.

So will all of the states that legalized weed sue the dispensaries they issued business licenses to in another 20 years when stoners get lung diseases like emphysema and cancer from smoking it ?

[LouAvul]

Those addicts don't care about repercussions; unintended consequences. That's the nature of addiction. They're ingesting heavy metals, contaminated water, human waste (for fertilizer) in some cases.

There is no federal oversight, so growers can do anything they want.

But an addict really doesn't care. As long as the drug does the job.

They are going to regret this party.

IT’S NO WORSE THAN DRINKING THIS IS BULLSH*T WE TRIED PROHIBITION AND IT DIDN’T WORK YOU PEOPLE THAT WANT TO TAKE MY LEGAL POT AWAY ARE ALL INFERIOR LEAVE MY POT ALONE IT IS MEDICINAL AND . . .

oh, wait. what?

[Mr. Rabbit]

Calling BS on this one. If you SMOKE anything, you’re putting harmful foreign crap in your lungs. I’d be willing to bet the THC in MJ may be LESS harmful that good old nicotine. Sounds like drug warrior hysteria.

The correct answer is to NOT SMOKE ANYTHING. The only thing that belongs in the human lung is clean air. If you must have your intoxicating substances, you’re better off using edibles or some other way that doesn’t tar up your lungs.

Life is full of risks. Some I’ll take.

[Berlin_Freeper]

You can take it in chocolate form.

[Libloather]

Well, it can make you cough.

[I want the USA back]

Some states are selling pot. Will the governors and legislators be thrown in prison for this?

[right way right]

Duh!
Smokin!

[catnipman]

in colorado, the solution is to switch exclusively to edibles if you don’t want to give up your dope ...

[NobleFree]

very similar to the type of inflammation that cigarette smoking can cause

Ban tobacco.

Yeah, I remember that scene in Reefer Madness, where there was a pandemic, and some totally crazed reefer addict was so high, he touched his hand to his face without using Purell first, and because reefer is like 100 times worse than cigarettes, he immediately got pneumonia and died right next to a honky tonk piano
