True. Pot smokers don't smoke a pack a day worth of joints so yeah. They are complteley biased on this issue.

That isn't true either, my wife had acquaintances in college that smoked constantly throughout the day.  Meanwhile, NEWSFLASH, not every cigarette smoker smokes a pack a day.  A friend of mine smokes exactly 3 per day (he actually only brings 3 to work)

Because you missed the point of the argument entirely, and used flawed logic yourself to jump to an incorrect conclusion, ignoratio elenchi.

 

You're right.  I'm stressed out at work and was looking for something to get upset about, then just kept digging a hole as others responded for you and I responded back to them.  I'm sorry!

Because pot is arguably less addictive, and a lot less people smoke pot. Also, yes, people can get cancer from the carcinogenic chemicals used in pot... but these cases will probably be attributed to 'smoking' because it isn't directly linked to the 'high' part of smoking marijuana.
 
Also, that something does not kill you does not make it harmless.


Not arguing that it doesn't have any negative effects.

No worries, I know that feel.
