Here it is folks and I think it’s alarming!
For all those wanting to argue that marijuana is so much better for you than cigarettes or alcohol, you really should read this!
I do not profess to be a doctor or extremely educated in the effects of the use of marijuana but the author of this article, ‘The American Lung Association’, I believe knows something about this.
I am not trying to give argument for or against marijuana, alcohol or tobacco, nor to argue between the use or non-use of marijuana for medical purposes and I’m definitely not trying to jam it down anybody’s throat but it’s a VERY, VERY SERIOUS and alarming article on the DAMAGING EFFECTS of marijuana!
If you take a couple of minutes, (come down off any high’s that may be influencing your thought), and actually read this article with an open mind, you may decide you might want to change your viewpoint! My only purpose here is to provide you with some VERY IMPORTANT information!
While damage to existing generations from cigarettes is great, I fear the damage to our upcoming and future generations from legal or illegal use of marijuana will be far, far worse without even discussing the possibility of marijuana being a ‘GateWay Drug’ to even more powerful addictive and damaging drugs! In fact, at the bottom of this article is a link to another article showing that Americans who smoke both tobacco and marijuana tend to smoke tobacco at a higher rate than an individual who does not partake in smoking marijuana.
