But seriously, wow. Nice scientific study tho, they had me at "perhaps".

if your proof is you, well that's probably meaningful to you, but we would have a hard time judging that since we don't know your medical history, MJ usage, etc.
now if you have some links to good clinical information, i think that's always welcome here(or should be)
i personally welcome good information on this topic
notice it's only you calling other people names.
you're entitled to believe what you want and if you want to
comment on the 'obvious', everyone knows that smoking
is bad for your health, whether it's cannabis or tobacco.
now, i've been a daily smoker since '69 and my blood pressure
has been around 120\80 for nearly 30 years and that doesn't
mean anything to the canna community, only to me, as your
experience only has value for you.
try to remember that when you feel the need to insult
those that disagree with you, it's you that ends up looking bad.
and you don't know me well enough to know whether i'm
a sheep or a hypocrite.
peaceout
Increased risk of stroke and heart attack are pretty classic symptoms of smoke inhalation, regardless of it being cannabis or tobacco or old tires.
Too bad they didn't have a control group who used just edibles. Would have made their flawed conclusions very obvious. Instead they study long term smokers, and don't screen them for conditions which contribute to the effects they discovered.

Someone needs explain that concept to these "researchers"

You are projecting here...I called no one names or ever said I was not being Obvious......You are assuming I directed that specifically to you....It was ment more for those in the community that preech the godspell of MMJ without seeing the Obvious.....hope I am more clear.....Still I dont see you providing any other info besides personal opnion....so it's safe to say maybe we both are full of shit.....
speak for yourself.
below i've highlighted the previous statements that
belie your current protestations.
you defend yourself rather than understand.
if those aren't insults to those who disagree with you i don't know what you'd call them, that was CERTAINLY your intent, despite your pleas of innocence.
but, like i already said, you're entitled to believe what you want.

I certainly don't want to end up being just another datapoint....I've always had blood pressure problems, regardless of conditioning, weight, or what I ate...take my word for it
I've been very negligent about checking my blood pressure, ever since I was diagnosed with chronic myelogenous leukemia, about eight months ago and began vaporizing on a routine basis
never really worried about my blood pressure before that as I exercised hiking/biking daily
I thought about finding my cuff this morning.....well, at least I have it in mind now, so I'll start in the next day, or two
..It was ment more for those in the community that preech the godspell of MMJ without seeing the Obvious.....hope I am more clear...............
now prove to me that your OPNION is more valid than mine and maybe leave out the personall attacks your ARGUEMENT is purely based in symantecs.....Im not looking for a fight...

i pray you'll come out ok in the end and i mean that with all my heart.
that said, i think you'd have to agree that that 'report' was
total horse puckey!
a sample of 18 stoners is just not enough of a pool to make
ANY conclusions worth a nickel.
or maybe that's the point, with such a small sample they
can 'prove' whatever they want to.
look man, i'm not looking for an argument either and i've not
insulted you once, even though you have been insulting
more than once.
and my only opinion was that this 'report' is bullshit, period!
"We're talking about people who are stoned all the time. We're talking about the marijuana equivalent of the guy in the alley clutching a bottle of cheap wine."
Ouch, that's me.
I guess I'm a Mariju-wino

I just picked up 3 cases of Charles Shaw
It's affectionately known, here in CA, as 2 buck chuck
actually, it's decent wine
Lmao, I just read an article on it called
"The frugal wine drinkers"
They said it's getting more and more popular with the bad economy
Next time I'm laying in an ally, smoking joints out of a brown paper bag, I'll add a bottle of chuck into the mix, lol.
Im sorry if my matter of fact tone comes across as insulting......not intended as such......intended actually so as to avoid anyone taking it personall....in no way was I passively trying to insult anyone.....excuse the misunderstanding.......

When you start rolling them with the paper from the bag, thats when you worry
lol, use the paper from the wrapper on a roll of toilet paper, ...that's what we used in jail, lol.
and KarmasWheele, no offense meant, none taken.
The people that do these studies do it for profit. Paid for by government agencies that would lose a great deal of clout and control over our lives. To much oxygen and water will kill you. The FDA just hasn't found a way to regulate and license it yet. Cannabis causes me to worry about heart attack or stroke every time I can see the bottom of my stash jar.

I agree...The worst thing in the world for your body and mind is....STRESS....Indiviuals who have a hard time dealing with stress in their daily lives,tend to have a much shorter life span...thats a fact.
