Could Nicotine be responsible for making a safe lightweight drug addictive, and dangerous?
Many today who smoke Cannabis use Tobacco from Brand Cigarettes (John Player is the choice in my Area) as they simply do not have enough weed for pure joints and even bongs.
Could smoking Cannabis be a part of enjoying there nicotine craving?
Any research would show that a large percentage of Cannabis smokers are also addicted to Nicotine, many who do not even smoke Cigarettes!
"A familiar site for many"
I believe awareness of this needs to be increased.

IN IRELAND, AND IM SURE MANY OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD, PEOPLE PUT ABOUT 70% TOBACCO 30% WEED INTO JOINTS. MOST OF THEM YOUNG KIDS, THE OLDER GUYS TEND TO BE WELL ENOUGH OFF TO HAVE ENOUGH WEED TO MAKE IT 50%-50%.
I HAVE SEEN ENOUGH OF MY OWN COUNTRY TO KNOW THIS, AMERICANS IF YOU WOULD LIKE PROOF ITS AS SIMPLE AS COMING OVER AND LOOKING FOR YOURSELF.
AND REMEMBER THIS IS AN INTERNATIONAL WEBSITE, AMERICAN MAJORITY, BUT A LOT OF THE TIME I REALLY DONT CARE ENOUGH ABOUT AMERICA TO HEAR ABOUT IT.
THANK YOU.
That being said I personally don't think their is any connection in the two. You might as well say that there is a link with alcohol and cigarettes because I do not ever smoke unless I get drunk/trashed (which is not very often, maybe 2 times a year if that) I know A LOT of Cannabis smokers and I'd say about half do not smoke cigarettes.
My ma quit smoking a year ago and I have caught her smoking the odd time when she drinks, I have at least 4 friends who do the same thing, and when I quit smoking for 3 weeks, I still smoked every weekend when I drank.
Eventually smoking weed and drinking lead me straight back to smoking, its pissy.
That's like dipping your $50 filet in ketchup... that is laced with highly addictive rat poisoning.
Nicotine is proven to be highly addictive, 50% of smokers die from nicotine related problems.
There is no proof that cannabis is any more addictive than ice-cream (I say ice-cream because I know you will want to focus on why I said that RATHER THAN ANSER MY QUESTION) and not one single person has ever died from Cannabis.
When you have smoked a pure cannabis joint and a mixed joint come back to me, otherwise, stop talking sh*t.
I think that most of the people who smoke cigarettes and MJ started smoking cigarettes before they smoked MJ
Spose I could hit about 50 bongs with it though :D
Definitely, I actually smoked cigarettes days before smoking green.
1⁄8 (0.125) oz = 3.54369 g.. is what I get.
It's almost twice as much as you said people where you live get for roughly $65
Maybe I just put more weed in my joints :P
Im a pretty heavy smoker..
Show me a study and I may believe your claims of 90%. Personal experience means nothing.
Study needs support, it means money, theres not enough research being done, Im just telling what I am seeing, and im sure many will agree.
Meanwhile like any good Christian, im going to keep talking about something people can only believe, and I want to hear what they have to say, you never know how far a question like this can go..
Yes I'm sure many stoned, angsty little teens would agree with you. Honestly, that does't mean anything either.
Now, are you going to back up your claims? You have the floor to prove me wrong or at LEAST prove yourself right.
"Any research would show that a large percentage of Cannabis smokers are also addicted to Nicotine, many who do not even smoke Cigarettes!"
-Please show at least 3 studies (I mean you did say ANY) which show this.
"90% of Addicted Cannabis Smokers are Addicted to Nicotine"
-Show me 1 credible and recent study which confirms this.
You're right, you never know how far this question my go. But it won't go anywhere unless you back your sh*t up. =]
Not straying off the point here, could only find an appropriate study for drink to show the contrast between government study and ACTUAL EXPERIENCE.
Ok, Studys done show only half of all Irish teenagers aged 15-16 have been drunk in PAST 12 MONTHS? Ask anyone from Ireland and they will tell you like me, that is a massive lie.
They are basing this on arrests made, and only know about these incidents when they are serious. In my are Crumlin (entire poulation 55000) there are smaller areas and of course smaller numbers of people aged 15-16. In the smaller area I live in (roughly 2000) I know every youth, and a large number of older people too. And let me tell you, youths as young as 8 or 9 are getting drunk, kids as young as 12 get drunk on a regular basis. By 16, drinking is a normal part of life, im 18 and bored of drink, as are many others.
Now I know the rest of Crumlin is very much the same as my area, worse in spots, and I know people from all over. No study is going to know that though, garda just know this as a dangerous area with high crime rates.
I could do something similar for cannabis if you would like, I chose alcohol because I had an actualy study on Ireland to show you the contrast of government study, and actual experience.
Your not to good at reading are ya? That post is to give you an example of just how wrong an "effing" survey can be ya f*cking creep, How can you find that offensive? Im from Ireland and Living here right now and im Telling you thats the way it f*cking is! Come and see for yourself, a creep like you wouldnt last 2 days over here.
When you see for yourself, you will laugh at half..
Two thousand younger people, can you do maths either?? No obviously only about 30%-50% are youths and only about 5% asre 15-16 years old, can you add that up or you want me to add that for you 2?
I know everyone well enough, on an average Friday night I will meet and spend time with 4 or 5 different groups of 20-30 people, add it up again. Everyone I spend time with wouldnt pass up a joint, They are all aged from 16-21, they all drink once or twice a week. I have been doing this for years at a very consistent rate can you actually understand any of that??
Just noticed you accused me of making things up? You calling me a liar?? thats a very serious accusation love and you wanna prove it!
As for the last part, if you cant understand any of that, then you...

As for the last part, if you cant understand any of that, then your just hopeless and you need to go talk about something else a bit easier to understand. By the way, I know your next move is to pick out that im 18, well guess what, I have done a lot of living in my short 18 years, Im about to run Night clubs and concerts this summer, I been living and working since I was 13. What have you managed to do in your 21 years?
If you feel personal enough to call me liar, I feel personal enough asking you these questions..
YOU, however have not proven yourself. I'm still waiting for statistics to back up your claims. Although this circus has gone on for so long I take it you are just a liar.
I apologize for not jumping on the bandwagon, as you clearly have.
Cannabis smokers risk nicotine addiction

I do not care WHO you know or what your personal experiences are. They play into the statistics which prove tobacco contributes to low birth weight. Are you really trying to deny YEARS and YEARS of research, hypothesis, and outcome??
And yes dear, alcohol IS lead...What is your point? SO IS THE TOBACCO WHICH YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT.
Caps lock stuck sweetie? haha
Also, what the hell are you talking about? You are starting an argument with me over something I didn't even SAY. You are bitching and moaning at me about something that has nothing to do with anything. May I ask WHY you are wasting your breath?
(PS. Your girlfriend was an irresponsible aren't even before HER kid was born, that's just sick and sad. I feel for HER child.)
Nicotine is a proven killer, 100 times more addictive than cannabis, and at least 4 more times than heroin, you tell me why it should be legal?
Nearly everyone in this town smokes pot, and I think I know one person who rolls spliffs (tobacco/weed cigarettes) out of all of them.
