Smoke is smoke and non smoking lungs are healthier than lungs ingesting burnt plant matter.

i mean i'm a really :420: kind of guy but even i agree with this

if it was in his system because he doesn't smoke but rather because he eats it, though, then that's another story entirely, but hell even i'll spark it once in a age even though i know it's the worst way to ingest the stuff. it may be the herb of the field, but smoke is smoke, guys

uh, what relevance does damage from smoke have? he's getting a fresh new pair of lungs. what is relevant is that once you've partoked of the devil's ganja you are indelibly marked as a wastrel and will be unable to to resist smoking again in the future.

If you've got alcohol in your blood as you show up for the transplant yes. You should be denied.

President Donald Trump's administration is drafting an executive order to investigate the extent to which the unfair dumping and subsidization of certain imports adds to the US trade deficit. 

If the results of the investigation show an impact, it could lead to more tariffs on imported goods, an administration official told CNN.
