A recent study has concluded that smoking marijuana even at heavy levels does not increase the chances of lung cancer. Smoking cigarettes does. Its obvious that this topic will be a hot topic politically, and this Gridlock on Rye predicts its just a matte of hours or days before someone claims that the researchers in addition to the subjects were smoking pot. Ergo, attempts to disclaim the research has probably already begun.
Researchers so far have claimed they are surprised by the results and don't know why the results would come back in the way that it has. One posited theory has it that smoking marijuana kills off cells before they can develop cancerous growths. No one has discussed the comparative problems that come with cigarettes due to the inclusion of numerous inorganic chemicals in the final product that ultimately get breathed in or smoked.
Gridlock on Rye does not promote the use of marijuana, but would promote a more realistic and scientific review of the facts surrounding this particular plant. Gridlock on Rye suspects that smoking anything is probably not the best thing for a persons overall positive health.
