In fact, marijuana smoke contains 50 to 70 percent more carcinogenic hydrocarbons than tobacco smoke. Marijuana users usually inhale more deeply and hold their breath longer than tobacco smokers do, which further increases the lungs’ exposure to carcinogenic smoke.
I said earlier that the one thing marijuana has going for it is that it's fairly hard to function in life while high, i.e. tough to smoke 2 packs a day. Did you read the rest of your link, i.e. the links to schizophrenia, depression, suicidal ideation? The general decrease in life functioning associated with use? The heightened risk of frequent pulmonary infections? The withdrawal symptoms (from a "non-addictive" drug) that users suffer?
You're acting like this is some wonder drug when in its smoked form, it wouldn't make it to a Phase I trial.
