An advertising campaign from the Marijuana Policy Project, the largest marijuana policy reform organization in the U.S., is blanketing airwaves with the message that the U.S. government's own research contradicts its anti-marijuana propaganda. "Warning! The government doesn't want you to hear this ad!" the spot begins, "because they're embarrassed they funded research indicating marijuana doesn't cause lung cancer, and might even prevent cancer." The ad began airing on 141 stations nationwide on September 5, 2006. "The U.S. government's own research directly contradicts the blatantly false information about marijuana that the government has been issuing for the last three decades," said Marijuana Policy Project Executive Director Rob Kampia. "The drug czar's office is still publishing ads and 'fact sheets' suggesting that marijuana causes cancer, even though new research financed by the National Institute on Drug Abuse shows no link between marijuana use and cancer. In fact, the marijuana smokers in the study had a lower rate of lung cancer than the non-smokers."

It is so embarrassing if you say something that you don't do. I believe their first intention is to say that weeds are dangerous, but it is not?

I think it is going to have a tough time to make it legal in America, even though cigarettes are a lot more deadly.
Some suggest that if anything were illegal it should be cigars and cigarettes.
I am not smoker and if both are illegal, it should be fine for me
