Wednesday May 21, 2008
Although legalization activists and many marijuana users believe smoking pot has no negative effects, scientific research indicates that marijuana use can cause many health problems. Marijuana is the most commonly used illicit drug in the United States. When smoked, it begins to effect users almost immediately.More About Marijuana:

Hey Buddy - what negative effects? Like encouraging blood flow & brain activity? Were you planning on citing any scientific research or proof of your statements? Or should we just believe a recovering alcoholic who’s got swiss cheese for brains?
The sources for the information are posted at the bottom of the article.

This is just more fear mongering. Keep in mind almost all the anti-drug propoganda is paid for by the alcohol and tobacco companies because they don’t want any competition.
the artical is very clear on telling you the effects of marijuana, but there is only 1 thing missing. We all learned the scientific method growing up in high school. (observation, hypothesis, experiment, analysis..)
but where in this article or any article on the effects of marijuana, do they give you a full write up of there experiments and the steps they took to get the results? Any body with a computer and knows a few big words can type a paper about how marijuana is bad for your health and not to do it. But what is the proof of this drug(herb) being bad? If you perhaps explained the experiments you performed to get the results that you did, and showed how you went at doing it, would be the only 100% way to prove that your expirement or any experiment performed on marijuana was true. So until then, any statement on the effects of marijuana is only a hypothesis, that has yet to be experimented with and fully proved. I rest my case.
This DRUG has effected many many people. My Aunt lost her daughter to this drug. She is dead and it is all for nothing. If you aren’t stupid you would read this page and know that this is the truth!! and of course the people who do this drug aren’t going to believe and of it. They are going to get mad that scientist have found it is in fact bad for your heart and brain function. I know a man that has smoked marijuana for 10 years and he is slow to prosess things, memory loss, heart problems, and he has bad emotional problems. I think that this drug is sick. If you smoke it then of course you are going to disagree. this drug should never be legal.
