That's click bait for the uninformed masses, the rest of us
just sigh and shrug it off.

Hello all,

Just asking but how do you know the science is bad or indifferent?

link?

If the science is there, is it not think it is a good thing to know?

Maybe Jeff Sessions pays for it all out of his own pocket. Maybe donations to obscure charities for money laundering. Maybe it's all unavoidable part of a social algorythm. Some people blame the aliens too. Yeehaw for 3x hypertension dramas.
In the image, a young promising student after discovering his 3x chance of hypertension after trying marijuana for the first time, yesterday (photo roosters).

From the Reuters story:

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-marijuana-hypertension-idUSKBN1AP0JS

"There was no link between marijuana use and dying from heart or
cerebrovascular diseases such as strokes.

Barbara Yankey, PhD, said there were limitations in the way marijuana use
was assessed -- including that researchers could not be sure whether
people had used the drug continuously since they first tried it.

But she said the results chimed with plausible risks, since marijuana is
known to affect the cardiovascular system."

The published study:

It's the threat of being arrested while smoking gives people high blood pressure...

odds of being arrested have never bothered me. if i do something stupid & get arrested, i can live with that. it is going in to work & having the nurse walk up & say "we have a winner! you get to pee in the cup today..." that bothers me.
