"Smoking marijuana clearly damages the human lung. Research shows that smoking marijuana causes chronic bronchitis and marijuana smoke has been shown to injure the cell linings of the large airways, which could explain why smoking marijuana leads to symptoms such as chronic cough, phlegm production, wheeze and acute bronchitis.4,9"
SurvivorNet was struck by the number of highly trained surgeons describing in vivid detail the biological ravages of repeated recreational pot smoking. “I’ve seen multiple, multiple cases of it. I see it every day. I’ll give you one for example. A patient never smoked before. Has been smoking weed since they were about 15, about a joint a day. And now they’re 30, 35, and they have a very aggressive lung cancer. They have these changes in their lungs that are emphysematous that you get from smoking,” Dr. Flores says. “Then when you look at their skin, you see the cancer there, just like in a smoker. You see a solid nodule there that’s eating away at the normal one. And patients say, Doc, I didn’t know I could get that from marijuana. They always said marijuana doesn’t cause lung cancer. And that really saddens me.”
That's it? A story a guy told? Lol
No actual case of an actual marijuana cancer patient
No, I'm just not an addict...I dont expect a pothead to see the world the same as I do. Anyone who smokes daily is easy to spot.
Hahahahaha. Full of shit as usual. You can spot a burnout. YOU can’t spot C level execs that smoke regularly. Guaranteed. You think you know, but you’re too ignorant to realize that you don’t know what you don’t know.
And as usual, anyone that disagrees must be a pothead.

The American Lung Association is concerned about the health impacts of marijuana use, especially on lung health. We caution the public against smoking marijuana because of the risk of damage to the lungs.

What's your favorite part of that article that you posted to support your stance?
Here's mine, from the artivlcle you posted.
Animal research suggests that some chemicals in marijuana work against tumor growth, which could explain why lung cancer isn’t showing up as often as scientists might expect in people who smoke it.
I hope you cop better than you debate
Only to a pothead does your quote above mean that it's a FACT that no one has ever gotten lung cancer from weed.
There is no point in having a discussion with someone that lives in this fantasy land. You're going to make up your own "facts" and live in your own world....so have at it.
Most reputable studies to date indicate that there isnt enough information to conclude whether it does or doesn't cause cancer. But the fact that some studies conclude that it does increase the risk means you are completely wrong in your "fact" statement. If you are unable to see that and unwilling to correct yourself then this is a pointless discussion in general.
The rest of the forum is intelligent enough to know what a scientific fact is so you're on an island here.
