Personally, cigarettes make me sick, literally. I get nausea and feel really bad if I try to smoke one. I prefer marijuana cigarettes

How can you compare medicine to something that does the exact opposite?

[Devilsmoke1]

This is the kind of stuff that just makes me mad.I myself have smoke on and off for 2 years and regret it all, but enjoyed it at some point. But when something like marijuana is made into such a devilish thing is so retarded. They need to get the facts to people, even though i know most of these people that believe one thing wont listen to anything.

Tests have been done to people who smoke weed, they live longer or just as long as people who don't. Unless you've got some type of sources, I'm going to say you're wrong.

I knew about the radioactive pesticides for a while...back in HS I brought the study to my health teacher, and she was even shocked. Can't argue with science

Thought I'd add a few more cents' to the topic

• Marijuana smokers generally don't chain smoke, and so they smoke less. (Marijuana is not physically addictive like tobacco.) The more potent marijuana is, the less a smoker will use at a time.
• Tobacco contains nicotine, and marijuana doesn't. Nicotine may harden the arteries and may be responsible for much of the heart disease caused by tobacco. New research has found that it may also cause a lot of the cancer in tobacco smokers and people who live or work where tobacco is smoked. This is because it breaks down into a cancer causing chemical called `N Nitrosamine' when it is burned (and maybe even while it is inside the body as well.)
• Marijuana contains THC. THC is a bronchial dilator, which means it works like a cough drop and opens up your lungs, which aids clearance of smoke and dirt. Nicotine does just the opposite; it makes your lungs bunch up and makes it harder to cough anything up.
• There are benefits from marijuana (besides bronchial dilation) that you don't get from tobacco. Mainly, marijuana makes you relax, which improves your health and well-being.
• Scientists do not really know what it is that causes malignant lung cancer in tobacco. Many think it may be a substance known as Lead 210. Of course, there are many other theories as to what does cause cancer, but if this is true, it is easy to see why NO CASE OF LUNG CANCER RESULTING FROM MARIJUANA USE ALONE HAS EVER BEEN DOCUMENTED, because tobacco contains much more of this substance than marijuana.
• Marijuana laws make it harder to use marijuana without damaging your body. Water-pipes are illegal in many states. Filtered cigarettes, vaporizers, and inhalers have to be mass produced, which is hard to arrange `underground.' People don't eat marijuana often because you need more to get as high that way, and it isn't cheap or easy to get (which is the reason why some people will stoop to smoking leaves.) This may sound funny to you -- but the more legal marijuana gets, the safer it is.

around my place we roll the joints and blunts with a lil tobacco so it burns better. btw i smoke both, like 2 days a week - weed and 6-10 cigs every day. id happily throw aways cigs if i had the money to smoke at least like 3 nice joints a day... but no job atm. i love smoking, inhaling smoke etc. smoke fetish i guess.

oh and i also love to burn things...

I didn't read the whole thing, too long. But I really didn't know that about tobacco. That might explain why, in my country, there was an almost sudden shift from Turkish tobacco to Virginia. It's, now that I think of it, impossible to locate tobacco and cigarets that doesn't have either Virginia, Kentucky or both in it....suspicious......

Well to me its not Tobacco that is killing people. Its whats in the Tobacco that Big Tobacco adds. Just like Commercial Cannabis. I have seen Cannabis sprayed with all kinds of additives that no one really knows what is in it? Just like if you grow your own Organic Cannabis you don't have to worry if it was sprayed with random crap..

I grow my own organic Tobacco and have found that. Not only I feel healthier but I use Tobacco in recreation instead of a need. I run my own Tobacco growing website. And I can show anyone how to quit smoking deadly major brands. But also show you how to enjoy Tobacco instead of needing it.


Here are some Medical Tobacco uses:


The remarkable stimulant properties of tobacco were utilized by early American Indians in curing wounds, swellings, coughs, tooth-ache, rheumatism, and stomach disorders. Tobacco was administered to patients in several forms, and was used in emergency treatment for snake and insect bites. In small doses was able to stimulate as well as depress hunger and thirst, and in large doses to produce visions and trances.

Even back in the US ‘Olde’ West, the traveling medicine show picked up this bit of medical trivia and sold tobacco suppositories to cure indigestion, diarrhea, and constipation. Analgesic to alleviate pain, to treat parasitic worms, anticonvulsive, diaphoretic, diuretic, poultice for boils and insect bites, as an emetic, for various dermatological conditions like rashes, to treat colic, for kidney problems, to treat apoplexy, snakebite, toothaches, dizziness, fainting, as an antidote against other type of poisonings, to curb insanity and it was even used to try to cure tuberculosis.Tobacco calms the nerves, Relives stress and can cure anxiety!!!!
