    It isn’t harmless. I’m not saying you shouldn’t use it. In all likelihood, it’s less harmful than tobacco or alcohol, but we shouldn’t pretend it’s completely harmless.

      What people always forget is that it’s the dosage that makes the poison. Weed might very well be harmless for recreational use, but recreational use does not mean trying to out smoke Snoop Dog.

        That’s a very good point, along with usage. Weed might have practically no effect if you consume it non-regularly but might have significant effect when you do every day.

      Nothing is completely harmless… aspirin and paracetamol is far more dangerous than marijuana.

        According to people like you even a water is more dangerous than weed. Weed is dangerous, that’s a fact. Not more than alcohol, but it’s dangerous.

          Water is far more dangerous than weed - you can literally kill yourself by drinking too much of it.

        I’d love to see the data on this if you have it. Isn’t weed more long term impact than the others you listed?
