This drug is a problem with the younger populace.

Advertising for “weed shops” and other stores that sell hemp paraphernalia make it seem like it is a cool and hip thing to do which appeals to teenagers.

People are arrested every day for growing marijuana and trafficking it, people still claim that smoking “pot” is no worse than smoking cigarettes. Marijuana smoke actually contains 50-70 percent MORE carcinogenic hydrocarbons than does tobacco smoke and is made worse by the fact that marijuana users usually inhale more deeply and hold their breath longer than tobacco smokers do, which further increase the lungs‟ exposure to carcinogenic smoke. Numerous studies have shown marijuana smoke to contain carcinogens and to be an irritant to the lungs.

On one chat board, a signature reads, “It's a free country we should be able to smoke what we want, when we want, where we want.” This is indicative of the attitude that too many people have toward this drug.
