Well if a video is a source of “proof”, which says “cannabis has killed no-one” then there are reams of documents at the NIH National Library of Medicine which would expose that as a huge LIE. Just for starters:

1) smoked cannabis has 100’s of proven carcinogens in the burned/chemically converted vegetables, oils, and cellulosic compounds in the plant. 100’s. Cancer, lung and other organ cancers. No mystery about this, and no filter (just like in tobacco) will filter it out.

2.) UK breakthrough research (genomic) has ID’d gene markers inherited in different human population groups— markers that are shown to be altered. In pre-menopausal females with the inherited susceptibility to the environmental triggers, who smoke pot during and through adolescence into young adulthood (defined age)— statistically have significant development of frank schizophrenia. This from the UK (Scotland) and Tel Aviv University published studies (in TAU— Human Molecular Genetics peer reviewed medical journal). The summary phrase from the investigators: “”In other words, young people with a genetic susceptibility to schizophrenia — those who have psychiatric disorders in their families — should bear in mind that they’re playing with fire if they smoke pot during adolescence.” The genomic analysis of the marker regions has extended this definition to way beyond only those with “psychiatric disorders in their families” — to actual identification of the chromosomal regions which are triggered.

No, schizophrenia doesn’t kill-—maybe.

But the genetic region triggers also are being ID’d for other behaviours and deficits in sensory response, and potential to harm themselves as well as others. Not a small deal at all.

It is not benign. No matter how many in the machinery try to push that it is. This is not “Reefer Madness” crapola. This is peer reviewed clinical data. BTW.... am no fan of tobacco or nicotine addiction. Nicotine is more addictive than heroin. No wonder RJ Reynolds loves selling it.

The unintended consequences... become known, and not for made up reasons.
