hahaha I have a confession (._.!) I did try both but then again I smoked like twice in my life and I guess it had a calming effect on me. I was very philosophical at the end of *that* evening. lol But if u want to run no risk at all u shouldn't try anything addictive. According 2 the BBC there are people who can take coke a few times and not become addicted to it, whereas others try it once and they can't stop craving it. So you know what to do if you don't want problems you don't need. And remember kids 'crack is whack'

smoking is gross

If weed is illegal, then I definately think that its the worst.

I honestly have no idea which is worse, I would like to say weed but that is just because I'm a cig. smoker ( i know, gross huh? ) lol... but if i were to guess, i would probably say cigs are worse... but i honestly have no idea, just a guess out of the wild blue yonder ;) haha

.....
.......
............tell that to my friends who have died in car accidents because of idiots that smoke and are high while driving, and the driver(s) who have died along with my friends.

And yes, cigarettes are worst than weed...the nicotine level is so much higher and impacts the lungs more than weed does...

I can go on and on about the comparison between the two...but I choose not to. It should be obvious.

LHHRS

Kevyn @-)--------

someone told me:

weed = emotional addiction
cigs = physical addiction

weed gives a higher risk of cancer.

Weed can do brain damage. I think weed's worse though, but I wouldn't know.

I think weed is worse, why else would it be illegal.

u guys are idiots have any of u guys heard of someone dying from smoking weed?

cigarrettes is a whole lot worse it

takes away your money
takes away your looks
and takes away your life

and u can get sooooo much dieases from cigareets like Lung,Neck,Throat etc. Cancer

plus there is 43 poisons in a cigarette

When a person smokes a cigarette, the body responds immediately to the chemical nicotine in the smoke. Nicotine causes a short-term increase in blood pressure, heart rate, and the flow of blood from the heart. It also causes the arteries to narrow. Carbon monoxide reduces the amount of oxygen the blood can carry. This, combined with the effects produced by nicotine, creates an imbalance in the demand for oxygen by the cells and the amount of oxygen the blood is able to supply.

It is now well documented that smoking can cause chronic lung disease, coronary heart disease, and stroke, as well as cancer of the lungs, larynx, esophagus, mouth, and bladder. In addition, smoking is known to contribute to cancer of the cervix, pancreas, and kidneys. Researchers have identified more than 40 chemicals in tobacco smoke that cause cancer in humans and animals. Smokeless tobacco and cigars also have deadly consequences, including lung, larynx, esophageal, and oral cancer.The harmful effects of smoking do not end with the smoker. Women who use tobacco during pregnancy are more likely to have adverse birth outcomes, including babies with low birth weight, which is linked with an increased risk of infant death and with a variety of infant health disorders. The health of nonsmokers is adversely affected by environmental tobacco smoke (ETS). Each year, exposure to ETS causes an estimated 3,000 non-smoking Americans to die of lung cancer and causes up to 300,000 children to suffer from lower respiratory-tract infections. Evidence also indicates that exposure to ETS increases the risk of coronary heart disease.

and by the way weed is only illegal in most countries because it fcks with your behavior and moods n sh!t like that

also the THC in marijuana can help fight against some cancers and protects the brain from effects of stroke, other disorders

More recently, in just the last few months, new information has emerged from studies by federal researchers at the National Institutes of Mental Health. Their reports have stated that THC, the chief psychoactive compound found in marijuana, and cannabidiol (CBD), a nonpsychoactive component, both appear to protect brain cells from the damage that often occurs during a stroke. When the brain's blood supply is cut, as occurs during a stroke, THC and CBD act as powerful antioxidants, protecting the brain cells from exposure to toxic levels of the brain chemical called glutamate. This finding also indicates that marijuana may hold medical value in the treatment of brain injuries and diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's.

and some types of marijuana (medical marijuana) is used to stimulate appetite, relieve chronic pain, and treat asthma and migraines

BOTTOM LINE DONT EVER DO CIGARETTES!

yea def. agree. ^ cigs are nasty and gross and youre just asking to be ugly and die a painful cancerous death...but there are i guess some people that ciggarettes dont do anything harmful too but thats not very likely..
+try telling my entire school that weed is worse. its insane amounts of people smoking pot.i dont think its that bad once in a while at parties or whatever but smoking pot everyday is a little excessive dont you think?
majority of people who do drugs
do it for the image.. cause they think it makes then look cool/rebellious or w.e.
i dont knwo what kind of image theyre going for
a scumbag one?
try cutting down..make a countdown.like in your profile and each day you can add aanother day .. 1 day no cigs. 2 days no cigs.

Cigs are worse. Chemicals you ingest when smoking them. Weed is not addictive in the manner that cigs are. Of course neither is good for you - but really - what is good for us? Our cows are full of steroids which pollutes our milk - cheese- meat... you know I could go on and on.

Drop the cigs, smoke weed in moderation. By yourself, and ounce a week is a little excessive unless you are rolling fat blunts. Fat blunts are a waste. I know several people who smoke weed and they have never done anything "stupid" or "dangerous". There is far worse out there to do, even legal stuff. There is the memory thing with weed, but I would not worry too much about that as aluminum causes alzheimers. We can't escape everything.

i'm guessing weed is worse. you've got to be very careful with weed sometimes it can be laced with other stuff without you knowing and can become WAY more addicting. that's what happened to my friend's uncle. my advice: get help.

Um. I guess weed is worse but you deffinately need help. You are my age and I know what peer pressure can be like. I don't know if that is how you got started but I'm guessing it was something of the sort. Get help. You need to. Cigarette smoking is not illegal but weed is. Getting help is what you need trust me. I have lost many friends to drugs and although I do not know you I feel you really need help. Just a concerned fellow.

I think weed is worse.
Afterall it's illegal and cigarettes arn't....... yet.

Both are bad either way.

both are bad. lol.

^ yeah i agree. thats what i learned in health. so i perferr ciggs. if i have to choose. but either way SMOKING is bad enough. so i think you should do NONE ! but its all you. goodluck though!

im a asian kid from NY

anywho i began smoking cigarettes in 6th grade. meh its been 3 years now
but i cut down ALOT, i went from 3-4 packs a day in 7-8th grade to now half a pack a day

and i use to smoke blunts by the hour. but now weed.. uhms. 4-5 times a month.


and according to people who worked in ER there are mary jane overdoses.


Yeah. I dont know how i magically cut down, i guess i REALLY REALLY tried. REALLY hard. or actucally i just cut off supply. =]

good job.

keep cutting down. you'll save more money that way. Use that money for clothes, pho. and food ;]

Wow, your smoking status is just about identical to mine. And I'm 15 too. But yeah, I know they're both bad... cigarettes are way more harmful than marijuana, with all that nicotine. And what concerns me the most, is that I used to be such an athlete, but now I'm pretty much the slowest girl when we run laps in P.E, haha. How sad.

And my mom keeps on telling me I'm short because I smoke.

You can get addicted to ciggggs

not to weeeeeeed..

Mentaly maybe..

Yes, there is no nicotine contained in weed. The only way to get addicted to it is the mental high.

I think that there both Harmful and if your finding it hard to quit maybe you should go speak to someone about it and they can offer you help and were to go get help..but smoking can cause bad side effects in the long run such as cancer etc.

true ... and it's pretty common.

Bullshit. Pot isn't addicting. Physically anyways.And ehh, I'm still not addicted to my cigs. It's been a week or 2 since I've had one. :] Haha it's sasd though, cause I def can't run anymore. =/ Oh well. It's not that important. Yea, pot smells good though. So =]]]]]

uh you cant seem to stop? that sucks..

b/c cigs cause cancer. i know my grandma died from breast cancer and had emphasyma (sp) she could hardly breathe the last few years of her life.
you better be careful for the sake of ppl around; second hand smoke is REALLY bad 4 the heart and lungs.

In the 1930's the government would release advertisements that stated marijuana caused people to commit suicide or go insane... Of course none of that was true...
If marijuana was so horrible, why is there "medical marijuana" ? Why is it legal in other countries?
In 1920, marijuana was the only legal drug... when the prohibition act banned alcohol altogether. People rediscovered marijuana... Of course, people would associate marijuana with crime, rape, and murder because of the propaganda movement.
Harry J. Anslinger convinced Congress and the public that marijuana was the cause of sex crimes and murder. He had no past with drugs. He wanted to protect his agency and keep his budget going. Marijuana wasn't a problem in Harlem in the 1930's... but in the southwestern states... Mexican migrants were bringing in marijuana and smoking it and growing it... They used marijuana as the excuse to push the Mexicans out of the U.S.
Marijuana wasn't a serious problem... it was just used for politics.
Anslinger would tell Congress that marijuana was having an effect on school children across america... but there was no evidence to support this... Congress disregarded the lack of evidence. Leading Congress to pass the Marijuana Tax Act... the first federal law against the drug. Anslinger somewhat "demonized" the drug.

So just think, if all that didn't take place... if people weren't so ignorant then... marijuana would probably be legal. :x
Anyway, Legal or not... marijuana isn't as harmful as cigarettes. There may be a mental addiction to weed but there will be no withdrawals if you were to stop smoking it...
I have yet to hear marijuana being associated with cancer.

I smoke about a pack or a pack and a half of Newports (menthol) a day. I must say that I probably smoke about a half ounce of marijuana every week.

Plus, what's so great about this world that'll make you want to live longer? Shit, I couldn't care less.

all those illegal drugs are illegal for a reason...

the government isnt completely stupid.

but cigarettes are probably worse in the long run..

weed is way worse because first of all it costs more money and dont worry be happy bob marley smoked a quater pound a week so ur still fine besides u only live once and as long as u dont let it f4ck with ur school work youll be alright.




hey hey hey smoke weed everyday

ok, for you who started the topic. try to quit one at a time. go easy on the cigs, then when you stop, start going easy on the pot. it's gonna be hard.

weed isn't bad for your health, and it isn't physically addictive, but cigarettes are. however, weed slows you down and makes you do stupid things, and some of those things might be dangerous. cigs don't change how you act, but they're addictive and MIGHT cause cancer. honestly, i think people make it seem a lot worse than it is. sure, they've linked cancer to cigarettes, but my grandfather is 75, he's been smoking for about 60 years and he's just fine. 3/4 of the adult men in my life smoke. none of them have cancer. it's not that common, but still, you don't want to take the risk. anyways, choose pot over cigarettes, and gum over pot. :)

Weed is better, because nicotine is way worse and it does more damage.

1. Sure, they're illegal for a reason, but that doesn't mean that they are illegal for good reasons. Cannabis, for example.
2. Don't underestimate the collective stupidity of the governing bodies.
3. If cigarettes are worse in the long run, why aren't they illegal? Might want to start rethinking some of those "reasons."

The government makes too much money off of cigarettes for it ever to become illegal, in my opinion. Where would America be without the sin-tax?

To hell in a handbasket!

The 1920s?

from what I've read here...I think cigs are more dangerous to your health

eek... anyone who smokes needs to stop. end of story.

oh wow.
you people make me sick...
anyone who has written something
about them liking to smoke weed & cigarettes.
& anyone who actually encourages it.
i really do feel sick to my stomach right now.

do any of you potheads or chainsmokers
actually know what it's like to lose someone by drugs or
cigarette-related deaths? most likely not.

you may not care about your own life that you are
slowly throwing away every time you smoke or use drugs,
but think of other people as well;
there's second-hand smoke,
which can sometimes be even worse than smoking yourself.
for instance, if you smoke a lot around your children,
they could develop a cancer before they enter high-school,
and you might (if you're lucky) live til your 50.

but most importantly think of your family & friends.
your loved ones & your peers.
your death causes a lot of chaos & mourning & troubles to them, too.

soo, you want my answer [to the idiot who started this board]:
neither.
wtf of a kind of question is that,
(and i'm surprised anyone even answered it):
[not direct]quote: wAAAhts b3t3r: weeed or c1gareeets??!!??!!1111??!"
neither is good for you, you f*cking idiot.

if you're a heavy smoker,
(and ESPECIALLY if you're underaged),
please seek help; you need it.
believe me, you're most likely in school from somewhere
between 8th-12th grade and you think your life is hell
& full of shit, soo you don't really care what you do with your life.
but trust me, once you're outta school, you will care about your life.
once you've gotten out of puberty or the partying and peer-pressure
stages of your life, you'll think differently about life.
and certainly when you're a 60-year-old, you WILL f-ing care
about when you die.
when you're that old, you'll most likely have a family,
and i don't care what you say right now, but you WILL care
when you're that age. you WILL care when you will die.
believe me, i was the same way that age, i thought about suicide
probably every day of my life. & i didn't care about my life much.
i NEVER tried drugs, but knew some people who did,
and had some great friends who turned into useless human beings.
it's quite sad. which is why i'm so determined to stop other people.
so please. stop.

but i never did it [commit suicide],
and now i'm happier than i've ever been.
i know i don't know you, but please you need help.
or alright, you probably don't wanna try & get help,
but at least stop & set your mind to it.
buy some nico-patch gum or something.

CALL THIS HOTLINE: 1-877-513-5333.

operators are standing by, and it's a number for people to get help.
even remain anonymous if you'd like.

drugs are bad.
remember that kids<3

crack is whack.
why do you think the government made it illegal?
because it's good for you?
hellll no.
yea, think about it. that's what i thought.

drugs are for thugs.
they screw up your life. emotionally AND physically.

i know i'll never meet you or get to know you personally,
but i'd reallly really like for you to change.

you can message me if you'd like. anyone. alright. peace<3

ps. yea sure, bob marley was an amazing man;
there's a poster of him on my wall right in front of me,
i'm staring at it as i type,
but just because he got away with it and managed to
remain in a peaceful state of mind does NOTNOTNOT
mean everyone can.

he's my idol too,
but not because he freaking SMOKED and got away with it.
you should idolize him because of his great music
and contributions to the world....
but NOT because he smoked.

as the old saying goes,
if bob marley had jumped off a cliff, would YOU do it too?!

God damn, your an interesting individual.

Bull shit. BULLLLLLLLLLLLLLL SHIT thats all bull shit. Weed is better for you. It dosen't have all the cemicals.

I smoked mad weed.. I am fine.



Agreed. It is not addicting physcally and I love the smell of it.

Weed is better for you, eh? Well, ironically, the cigarette smokers I know can spell chemicals correctly.

Oh so true.

i believe cigarettes are worse, but honestly, both are pretty much equally as harmful. it says on this picture that when cannabis (er, 'weed') is smoked with tobacco, the risks are increased. googling (images) 'tobacco effects' is nasty. it's why i don't choose to smoke, because of what can happen to your body.

one joint is equal to three cigarettes because they aren't filtered go to rehab okay im not saying you have to but you can get (if you were 18) up to i think 2years in jail for that if you get caught belive me I work at juvinial court as a volunteer lawyer and its bad we have people up to 18 and we give them second chances for mistakes they made quit while your ahead!

Beach

Yeah weed kills your receptors. All that crap goes to your brain and kills your gag reflexes. I could tell you all that technical crap but it goes a long way. Bascially by taking all of that illegal crap you are screwing yourself. Not only if you are a guy will you not be able to have sex properly but if you are a girl it will kill you reproductive organs. Also your immune system will go down and you will get sick like crazy. I'm sure you don't care though.

Both I would personally think. But probably weed?

I suggest just quiting. They are coming out with this pill or shot type thing that was clincally proven to make you stop smoking.

My dad is supposed to try it when ever it comes out, which should be soon.

Uh... there's nothing wrong with smoking Marijuana.

Actually I used to smoke it for many reasons and I'm happy to explain them:

Sleep aid

Hunger aid (I eat 8 meals a day, sometimes I'm not hungry and I can't force feed myself, so I smoke for munchies)

Meditation (It helps concentration/focus in Chakra or also known as activating 3rd eye)

Stress reliever

Also back in highshcool I had trouble concentrating in my classes. I started to "wake n' bake" and I was able to concentrate better, comprehend better in class, and funny enough I was finishing up all my class/home work in class before most students in class... I finally started to get good grades.

Ciggs are just disgusting, back in the day I got into smoking Newports cuz they tasted good and I thought they would be the alternative to smoking weed. Then the Newports started to taste nasty as hell... I had to quite lol

And someone made a claim that Marijuana is addictive? Quite honestly, it's a mind thing... Marijuana itself is not addicting, I quite cold turkey a few months ago, it's not hard to quit.

Also people who are brainwashed into believing that marijuana itself is worst than tabacco, you can blame the U.S. for that disgusting mind game.
Only thing that makes marijuana unhealthy is the papers and leaves you use such as a dutch master, because it is tabacco based, weed itself in a pipe is not worst than ciggs.

Plus there's scientists, scholars, philosophers, metaphysicians, teachers, poets, (I can just keep going) who smoke marijuana.

Edit: Marijuana does NOT kill braincells... those patches of dark spots on the brain is actually a part of the cell wall that is 300% thicker than the rest of the cell wall.. Look it up and you'll find the truth for what it truely is, thus explains the cloudy feeling in your head

I've had plenty of high sex and I can assure you, everything still works properly. Pretty sure it's also one of the best ways to fuck
