Pot no more dangerous than alcohol.
That's the first true thing Obama has said since he was elected.
Actually, it's not true at all. Marijuana is far safer than alcohol. A person can die from drinking too much alcohol, but no one has ever died from smoking too much marijuana. That is a fact that everyone can look up. America tallies the drug overdoses reported each year from hospitals and doctors all over the country, and each and every single year, the number of people who overdosed on marijuana is 0.
A person can die from taking too many aspirin, or eating too many peanuts, or drinking too much water, but no one in the entire history of medical science has ever been reported to have died from a marijuana overdose.
And as the US Federal government's official cancer website says, Cannabinoids might play an important role in the human immune system, so marijuana actually is good for you and the environment.
If anyone thinks that they're going to get lung cancer from smoking weed, stop thinking that. As there have not been any marijuana overdoses, so too have there not been any reported cases of lung cancer among people who only smoke Cannabis. If smoking marijuana causes cancer, then why would doctors prescribe marijuana to cancer patients? And the best part about Cannabis is that you don't even have to smoke it. You can vaporize it, soak it in hot water to make tea, or just pick the flowers right off the plant and eat it. And hemp seeds are among the healthiest food sources on this planet.
