Pot causes brain damage and permanent cognitive problems, as well as inducing psychosis in a significant percentage of users. Not to mention lung problems, COPD and lung cancer. It has all the same carcinogens as tobacco.

Smoke in the lungs is generally a bad thing no matter the source. The lungs are not as good a detoxifier as the liver is. The lungs are actually much better at absorbing, by Design.

Then why is it treated differently?

I have only four acquaintances who’ve smoked pot. Two are on oxygen. One, the youngest, is dead.The fourth, the only conservative, lost a child to miscarriage. When I advised him of the study connecting marijuana to miscarriage, they’ve stopped visiting.
“It has all the same carcinogens as tobacco.”
Wrong. Tobacco companies add nitrates and formaldehyde in cigarettes. Also the smoke particles are much larger in weed smoke. The cilia in the lungs can remove them. Tobacco particles are much smaller and lodge between cilia so they cannot remove them. Eventually it causes dead spots in the lung tissue. You don’t see that with weed smoke. Nor do you see lung cancer at the rate you do with cigaretttes.
