Who has Pot killed? TP forbes.com A U.S. study concludes there is no link between smoking marijuana and increased risk of lung cancer -- even among heavy, long-term users. The California researchers also found that smoking marijuana does not appear to increase the risk of head and neck cancers, such as cancer of the tongue, mouth, throat or esophagus.

re: People who say that pot has never killed anyone use the same "logic" and B.S. that tobacco companies use when they claim that smoking isn't addictive. Huh?

Pot has not killed anyone, but yes if someone smoked a pack of joints a day, they could develop lung cancer. Or if one works in a garage full of exhaust fumes. Any fumes will kill you if you take in too much. But the typical pot smoker has 2-3 tokes and that's it. Very few people smoke pot every day, and even fewer more than one joint per day. Usually it's something done occasionally.
