1. Tobacco and alcohol alone account for thousands of deaths a year.

Nobody has ever died from cannabis poisoning.

2. Not only that, but there's evidence that the smoke actually helps fight lung cancer

How ironic is that?

3. Not at all. I read something like that 30 years ago. Pot is natural.

Okay, so is tobacco, but it has tar and other shit that's not good for you. Pot's never killed anyone (at least by health reasons).

5. The gravy-boat for big pharma and wealthy Wall Street investors will be zealously protected, no

matter the societal cost, the amount of needless suffering, and the overall other harm inflicted by insane national policy.

7. I wish the cartoon could be more nuanced...

... but I realize that 'toons can't be nuanced.

The drawing of the joint gives the 'toon the "hippy doper" image of MMJ.

These days, people use a vaporizer and edibles for a lot of reasons. No smoke....no coughing... no smoking half a bale to get an effect.

Modern bud is very high in THC, and the Indica varieties are great for sleep, pain relief, anxiety, PTSD.... all kinds of things.

Edibles are outstanding.
