Marijuana smokers get considerably more carcinogens, carbon dioxide, and tar exposure than do the smokers of ordinary cigarettes. This is partly caused by the higher content of these substances in marijuana and partly by the pot smoker's tendency to inhale more deeply and hold the smoke longer than tobacco smokers do.
Is this true? I don't know, I 've never heard of anyone dying from lung cancer caused by pot smoking!

Id say it depends on how much you smoke of each. If youre a regular cig smoker and a pot smoker just here and there, then the cigs are worse, cuz youre getting more from them. ..on a daily basis.
Theyre both bad. Doesnt matter which is worse...theyll both kill you.

OKAY PEOPLE.... carcinogens, the cancer causing product in tobacco is in the leaves of marijuana. not the buds, which is what you smoke. and there is no evidence of marijuana ever causing cancer.

it all depends on who is growing it. what type of growth agents or pesticides are used in its cultivation. the best thing to do is to grow your own so that it could be controlled. but since its illegal to do so i really wouldn't advise doing that.know what i mean? please be careful!!!
