If anyone watching this video thinks its right just google the tons of research that debunks all the so called data read to you in this video. Article after article blew THESE myths out of the water. If our government is ever going to earn our trust they need to tell us the truth because when they spread junk like this as fact it loses credibility when they do have something factual to say.
at worst putting smoke in your lungs is never good and that can be nulified by using a vaporizer

@JaxxHusky do you have any proof that he is wrong?
he clearly proved with scientific evidence and what do you have?
you clearly don’t have any proof, only ignorance

Hahaha, all the little kids getting mad that they are developing life-long effects on their body because they smoke weed.
The active ingredient in weed is THC. THC is a drug, and it is a fact that NO DRUG ever has NOT given you NEGATIVE side effects. Every drug has negative side effects.
Also most people inhale the weed smoke. Inhaling ANY SMOKE is bad for you. NEVER in history has medicine been taken through smoking.
Enjoy your tar that is currently inhibiting your lungs.

The might cure cancer…..but oil is not packed into a demonic looking glAss pipe and smoked. Cannabis is a great crop for food oil and hemp. Not used to get “high”. It also displeases God, sorcery is prohibited in the Bible. Great video!!!!!

@C0nc0rdance i have noticed that that pot users will offer take great offense if one even critiques it. it’s the only drug that it’s fashionable not to take personal responsibility

THIS VIDEO IS BS. there is so much more RECENT research about marijuana some of the stuff he is stating is research from the 70s. he states tht u can OD on Pot yet HE CANT FIND A DEATH FROM POT. recent studies have shown tht pot prevents cancer! he states tht people who used pot AND OTHER DRUGS developed problems BUT THERE IS NO ONLY POT SMOKERS. weed is a plant not a drug get it right dipshit.

@playa15916 So what. There are hardcore alcoholics who can stop drinking for 2 or 3 months. Your personal experience doesn’t disprove scientific evidence.

@chaztheLM Nope, he didn’t say that anywhere. Check your hearing.

This is the publication you were referring to. How you changed “less impaired than alcohol” and “non-significant reduction in response time” to “makes you a better driver” is why I felt the need to make this video.
These are the kind of myths built on hearsay and misreporting. Yet you cherish them more than truth, and as a result people get hurt.
Learn to be self-critical. Where did you read it? Is it a reliable source? Can you track it to a primary source?

@meshuggahfan
‘The influence of cannabis on driving’ TRL Report 477 (2000)
“When considering the simulator tracking tasks, participants tended to drive less accurately on the left and
right loops of the ‘figure of eight’ when they had been on the high cannabis dose. This suggests that they were unable to control their steering as well when under the influence of the high cannabis dose. This again confirms previous observations that cannabis adversely affects drivers tracking ability.”

@burntoastvideos Actually Pot makes you a better driver. Lookup the study done in the UK, they let people loose on a closed course sober as a control, then let them smoke a bunch of weed and then re-did the course. All of them drove better on weed, and were generally safer drivers. LOL CATZ!

@cgreenwood95 you don’t have to die to develop diseases. it’s not like there are two states that humans can be in, healthy or dead. there are degrees to which a person can be healthy. that’s kinda the point of moderation.

And as for the overdosing thing, well I’ve already mentioned that too much of anything is bad, but you know there was a boy who died from too much masturbation. And as for the cancer thing, I’ve never heard of anyone ever getting cancer from pot. They try to tell you that it will give you cancer however they also tell you that cell phones are going to give you cancer too. So you decide who to listen to.

And also, No shit it makes you dangerous behind the wheel. Only a fucking idiot would think that you can take something that alters your perception of the world around you and still be fine to operate a 2 ton machine.
