This study proves further that marijuana should be decriminalized, taxed and regulated.

How is a standard prerolled Marlboro Red cigarette a fair comparison to a unfiltered handrolled marijuana cigarette?

Take 20 full strength Drum hand rolled cigarettes without a filters and then compare it to 20 full strength hand rolled marijuana cigarettes without filters.

If marijuana was regulated and taxed:
1. major tobacco would immediately put their decades of growing experience to use to create commercially viable low thc low tar variants of cannabis.
2. major tobacco companies would create new filters specifically for marijuana cigarettes.
3. Tar levels would substantially decrease as a result, and tobacco/marijuana blends would become more popular in the States, similar to street usage in Europe/Japan.

Dopers would use filters?
