Weed kills brain cells, tobacco doesn't.

Regular naps prevent old age....Especially if you take them while driving
 
where did u come up with weed kills brain cells the DEA's Pocket gide to pot, I have never heard of that.
 
Not in the US. I know lots of people (myself included) that don't smoke cigarettes but do smoke herb.
 
This is a completly personal oppinion, but i think tobbacco is first of all less physically damaging depending on usage im smoke about 4 cigs a day...and tobbacco is also a WHOLE LOT less mentally damaging then weed, weed puts me in the fucking shittiest place when i wake up the next morning, unless i have been smoking everyday, cuz then it just doesnt effect me in the morning, but i dont get to sleep because i NEED a few hits to be *comfortable* to sleep....so weed is great if used maybe only on friday nights or only on occasion basically....
Pintsize.
 
lets just put it this way, marijuana is less toxic than most foods we eat. thats scientific fact. but thats the plant itself, you never know what kind of chemicals have been put on your average mexican commercial shit when you get it, so theres no real way you can be certain what you're smoking isnt harmful unless you grow it yourself.
 
if you are in sports i can tell ya tobacco is alot worse for you...smoke tobaccy for a week, try and run, then do the same with pot. the tar from tobacco screws the hell out of your lungs. i also usually do not smoke cigs but am a every day pot smoker. i realize pot has its down side, but i feel tobacco has a far worse side to it...such as cancer perhaps?

I'm one of the weed-only smokers, so yeah, we do exist. I've heard that if people smoked pot as much as they smoked cigs- like 1 1/2 packs of joints a day, then weed would be worse for you, but since that's not the case, tobacco is worse.
 
in terms of straight-out (oral) toxicity:
eating 1/4 oz of weed will probably knock you on your ass for a day or two; eating 1/4 oz of tobacco will probably kill you...
smoking anything is seriously bad for your lungs.
 
not one single case, not ever. THC is one of the few chemicals for
which there is no known toxic amount [10]. The federal agency NIDA says
that autopsies reveal that 75 people per year are high on marijuana
when they die: this does not mean that marijuana caused or was even a
factor in their deaths. The chart below compares the number of deaths
attributable to selected substances in a typical year:
Tobacco...............................340,000 - 395,000
Alcohol (excluding crime/accidents).............125,000+
Drug Overdose (prescription)............24,000 - 27,000
Drug Overdose (illegal)...................3,800 - 5,200
Marijuana.............................................0

sorry i couldn't find more recent statistics...LOL!!!
 
Of course you can't "overdose" on marijuana - you can't smoke yourself to death either.. but I think if you compared one Marlboro to one joint, you would find they have similar amounts of tar and all that other bad shit..
I started smoking again, but only because it makes my work day go faster, plus I smoke like a pack a week.. and honestly, smoking *does* make you look cooler.. there is something about smoking that makes you look older, more mature, and more sophisticated.. plus those 'truth' commericals make me want to smoke out of my hate for those idiots..

As cool as it may look, there's too many goddamn hot girls out there that HATE smokers :P http://www.norml.org has a site on marijuana myths and it lists the damages of tobacco vs marijuana smoking. But keep in mind where the information is coming from...
 
ok my point on this is the quanity of smoke that you pass through your lungs...if you smoke both its wayyyy higher right?? me i usually hit 3-5 bowls a day and i don't smoke or drink...munchies get me though i am not gaining weight due to eating so sporadically i guess...
anyway as in my case im inhaling maybe 40 lung fulls of smoke a day... how many for 1 cigerette ???
i would say that as long as you take care of yourself and listen to YOUR body and not your buddies... you should be fine
and i would say that its worth the risk...if there even is one. unlike tobacco which is killing people that DON'T EVEN SMOKE!!!!!
to each their own
