Very doubtful. Cannabis buds contain about a third as much tar as tobacco leaf. Additionally, studies on this very subject, following regular users of both substances, show that even heavy pot smokers smoke 3 to 4 joints a day, compared to 20 or more cigarettes.
Based on personal experience, I've known asthmatic people who could inhale pot, but had trouble breathing if they were anywhere near cigarette smoke.

Wow, how does your brother get caught 9-10 times. What is he doing, smoking in front of teachers and cops. I have nothing against pot smoking, but your brother should def. stop because pot will get him in a lot of trouble because he's not careful, and he will probably start doing drugs like coke, and if your brother is addicted to pot, then he will probably love coke even more.

NOPE. Smoking of cigarettes causes cancer, cardiac artery disease, emphysema, bad breath and more. People die from smoking cigarettes. No one yet died from smoking marijuana (unless drove the car and got into an accident). When smoking pot you need to take same precautions though just as when you drink alcohol. Both of them will cause temporary loss of clear judgment. Marijuana has medicinal value and helped a lot of people to treat different medical conditions. There is also synthetic version of Marijuana called Marinol, which can be prescribed by a doctor for example for the loss of the appetite.

Actually it is supposed to be better. However if you do not smoke tobacco why smoke the marijuana? Why not put it into food, or vaporize it, some other way then smoking....just a idea for you.

I've heard of people getting weird infections from smoking pot-like fungus infested weed, or mold or something like that.

I've heard that smoking one joint is like smoking 3 ciggarettes. I don't know if this is true though. If you smoke pot only on occasion, i don't think it'll hurt you.

One statistic that I recently heard is that marijauna is 20 times more carcinogenic than the ingredients in a cigarette. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
