"CONCLUSION: Numerous studies suggest that marijuana smoke is an important risk factor in the development of respiratory disease."

Many medicines have negative side effects - should they all be banned?

From the same article:

RECOMMENDATION

A recommendation is not a fact. And whether marijuana should be tried before or after another medication should be up to doctors in consultation with patients, not politicians or bureaucrats.

The point is you're playing fast and loose with the facts and the truth. You quote a paragraph from an article that out of context seems to recommend that smoking pot is great medicine. But when one actually reads the article the exact opposite is true and when they "recommend" it it's only under very stringent guidelines that NOBODY follows in the "medical" marijuana industry.

I missed your response to this point:
