hahahaha... ya know out of all the anti-marijuana commercials I've pretty much only found two to be true...the one where the girl is flat on the couch and the one where the kid said I never went out and killed anyone, shot my friend with a gun I just sat in my friends basement...but I wasn't out riding my bike, playing sports, ect... My new fav is the one where the kid makes himself into a giant bud

Whenever you see a talking alien in TV ads, you know you better take them seriously.

all that shit is true...maybe not for you, but for others. for instance, you think it's not true that pot smoke is bad for your health like cigarettes? well it is and you're wrong. it's bad for your lungs, and that's not rocket science man.
the statistic about violence and pot pertains to surveys taken when people are incarcerated for violent crimes. for instance whenever some ghetto kid slinging crack is arrested for assault it's probably safe to say he smokes herb, since pretty much everyone does smoke herb, so they take instances like that and use them in their statistics. it's a little lopsided, but not entirely untrue.
i'm not saying that smoking pot is bad, but i was expecting way more outrageous "factual" claims then the ones i read in this thread

He would have to be totally blind in regards to his own body to say that mj doesn't affect his lungs/breathing. Mj is an expectorant, though. It helps you to hack up any funk in your lungs, but it also causes some of that funk in the first place. I just need to invest in a vaporizer.

Sure it affects yours lungs. It can leads to pulmonary comlications like emphazyma. There are at least two cases on the record of people under 30 who smoked pot (but not cigarettes) developing emphezyma. So that's obviously not good.
But pot will not give you lung cancer. Straight up.
Scientists have identified many of the same carcinogens in cannabis smoke as in tobacco smoke. Scientists have also observed the developement of precancerous legions in the lungs of marijuana smokers. But when they actually did a long term populational study to put the issue to rest, here's what they found (with respect to cancers of the mouth, lung, and throat):
People who smoke cigarettes get shitloads of cancer (duh). People who smoke both cigarettes and pot get significantly less cancer (cool). People who don't smoke anything get cancer once in a while. People who smoke pot get cancer a touch less frequently than that.
And bear in mind the scientists who did this study honestly expected to prove smoking pot causes cancer.
As to the rest of the points on the brochure, there really is a shade of truth in each (except the violence one... only lack of weed would make me violent)

i couldn't resist, just too sexy.
and no that's not me, dont try to hit on me.
and to most people responses, yes these things can be true, but more often than not they aren't, and what bothers me most is only the fact they they are presented as 100% facts, when its so situational.
