Edited to add that I think I got this from Hasj on fb, so apologies if this is re-posted.
"In a recent report, the National Cancer Institute (NCI), part of the Federal government's National Institutes of Health (NIH), stated that marijuana "inhibited the survival of both estrogen receptor–positive and estrogen receptor–negative breast cancer cell lines." The same report showed marijuana slows or stops the growth of certain lung cancer cells and suggested that marijuana may provide "risk reduction and treatment of colorectal cancer.""

Also from the article- there are now 19 studies that show that smoking mj does not increase lung cancer risks. Burn on my party peoples!
