  • That’s not the issue. The issue is that their mortality numbers are suspect. How could they possibly know that all of those people died of lung cancer because they smoked cannabis? Especially when Cannabis is illegal in the UK where that chart is supposed to be from? I would like some actual evidence. So far, all the evidence I can find goes back to a pyschopharmacologist called David Nutt who seems to think cannabis is dangerous but won’t show his sources either.


  • Cool. But I asked you the source of the mortality numbers. You still haven’t given them to me.

    This was literally in that PDF:

    The UK government treats these as much more dangerous or desirable (from the consumer perspective) than those others already mentioned despite overwhelming evidence that psychedelics are very safe (almost no deaths) and are rarely abused. cannabis is also relatively safe having been a medicine in the UK until 1971

    From what I can tell just searching for the word ‘cannabis,’ something you did not do, this information all comes from a psychopharmacologist called David Nutt who seems to have a particular hard-on for talking about the dangers of cannabis.

    Without ever showing his sources on mortality.

    I know you didn’t read the entire report in the time it took you to reply, and neither did I. But it didn’t take me long to find that, which puts the whole mortality number thing under suspicion.
