Smoking Marijuana More Harmful to Lungs Than Cigarettes: Study

I am not surprised and now that it has been legalized, people will sue for damages.

Yet people are out there pushing this crap to be legalized.

I analyzed numbers from the fentanyl crisis. I reasoned that people were thinking that, if marijuana was supposed to be bad, but States are legalizing it, then substances that the Federal Government classified as "bad" can be ignored, thus the dangers from fentanyl could also be ignored. It would be possible to hypothesize that if there were no relation between these facts, then the rise in fentanyl deaths would have no correlation to the rise in population of States that have legalized marijuana.

The hypothesis failed. There is a correlation between the rise in population of States where marijuana is legal and the rise in fentanyl deaths. Between 2011 and 2021 (11 data points) the correlation (Pierson's "R") was 97%, with an P number of less than .01 (waaaaay less!).
