Outside of hurting the lungs, what do you think pot does to you that is bad??

I am sure it is bad for the lungs, but outside of that the evidence is that pot is pretty safe and has many medical qualities. Very mild drug.

Two years ago Scientfic american had front page articles in both its magazine and its mind magazine (google it) showing pot is a "tonic" for the brain. Tonic is their word. It prevents dementia by keeping protein build up off the brain and keeping neurons young, plus a few other things.

Junes 2010 Issue of Science News has pot on the cover and has articles on how pot has been shown to prevent certain cancers in the lab, help people with MS prevent muscle spasms, lowers blood pressure etc, and they are investigating many other properties.
