Your not supposed to smoke tobacco...but you can smoke pot...
Does smoking pot cause cancer???
I know what you mean.
A very good question to which there is no answer today. There is still no exception to federal illegality that would allow researchers to look for answers to this and many other questions. Another one is nobody knows what the legal limit should be to drive after toking or even how to test for that limit, again because no research has been done. So, many of the assertions in this editorial are based on shaky data or guesses.
I'm even suspicious of the data on increased teen usage. It seems logical that people would be more honest about pot usage after legalization than before.
That said, I voted against the measure and don't use the stuff. But a clear majority in this state support it and I think it will eventually be legal nationwide. I hope so, because I'm really tired of the pot tourists.
I suppose it isn't such a bad thing to put police resources to use fighting more serious crimes.

Yes. Lung cancer, emphysema, bronchitis and COPD.
