    Safer when smoked in the same quantities? Not even close. Marijuana smoke has considerably more tar. Safer when smoked like a sane person? Definitely.

        They do, which highlights how flawed/pointless this survey and headline are.

        Not accounting for the well known association between tobacco and cigarettes when formulating the question is just lazy polling.
