If cannabis is so dangerous, where are all the dead bodies?

what about all the chemicals that are put into the paper of a cigarette? you can't tell me all these lines around my cigarette that make the paper burn evenly can be anything near healthy for me?
and what about those new fire safe cig's that we all smoke on now.. what do they think that cigs just magically go out on their own now without some added chemical's to do so?? all of which i'm sure are great for me as well..

They actually reduced the levels of chemicals to make the new "safer" ones, most of the "dangerous chemicals" that were added to tobacco were purely to keep the damn thing lit, how sick is that?
Seamore Green, I saw it on a cannabis documentary, but I believe the study was done by UCLA, can't search it cos I'm on a phone and it's annoying.
Hmmm....Well now....I have pretty well stopped smoking it so I don't see how it could be more carcinogenic for me.
I apologize for my incessant rambling, but if you are patient there is inner hidden wisdom in most of my posts...Like playing literary "Where's Waldo."--------------- See, it's fun!
It's not anyways, as has been said before, if cells turn precancerous then THC has the ability to kill them when they were supposed to die (and be replaced naturally) instead of them splitting and spreading.
Basically if cannabis was the "poison", it has the "antidote" mixed in aswell.
Benzopyrene is created when lipids combust, all cannabinoids are lipids, dry and cure well, use a vape, enjoy your therapy

Oh CNN...
Weigh a cigarette, unless you roll your own, you're smoking a gram of tobacco minus the filter. People who smoke cigarettes usually smoke more than one a day, lets go with 5 being the median (I'm sure it's higher). That's 5 grams of tobacco minus 5 filters to the dome. Now, If I smoke 5 or more grams a days of pot it's almost always split with friends. You're everyday stoner probably doesn't smoke more than 1-2 grams of pot a day.
Now, before we get into a pissing contest along the lines of: "I smoke zip a day nigga, cause I'm a gee... yardidaholla?" You have to take into account that the eqivalent tobacco smoker would smoke two packs a day, which is 40 grams.
Without using statistics, based on my own observations, from the people that I converse with, I'm going to say that the median pot smoker smokes about 1.5 grams to the face a day. At 70% more carcinogens we multiply that by 1.7 (if you don't understand what I did here... 5th grade covers this pretty well) 1.5 x 1.7 = 2.55; so the equivalent amount of carcinogens of a median pot smoker is roughly half that of a median tobacco smoker. Who'd of thunk it? Not CNN.
