Well, since due to the fact that it has been illegal up to now, I doubt that many people have pointed out their use. This means that there are no statistics since there's very little, if any, data.
That said, since marijuana has not yet been anything studied and approved by the FDA. We're flying blind.
I contend that no one in their right or straight mind would believe that there is ABSOLUTELY NO RISK in smoking marijuana. EVERYTHING has a down side of some sort.
I casually viewed a documentary on the stuff the other day, where they said that 31 compounds have been identified that are suspected of being hazardous. What do you think are the odds of at least ONE of them being harmful?
