This study, involving a lot more subjects showed a POSSIBLE relationship, but admitted in it's conclusion "additional studies need to be done." Truthfully, drinking water would likely be as risky, as referred to in this Article: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-1023340/Chlorine-tap-water-nearly-doubles-risk-birth-defects.html

There were some contradictory findings in the research. One that stood up was that those who used cannabis less frequently were more at risk of testicular cancer than those who used it daily.
There needs to be more studies on the effect of marijuana. I stopped believing the pro or con studies because there seems to be a bias flaw in those studies. An organization called MAPS is sueing the DEA to get access to marijuana for a stringent test but the DEA is the only source legally. The DEA can tilt a research by the quality of the marijuana or even provide adulterated marijuana.
I think it is important to describe the side effects as well as the benefits of medical marijuana in an unbiased and scientific way. The anti drug authorities act as if the danger of marijuana is obvious and don't spell out what those dangers are. The pro-pot group also push the beneficial side without addressing the dangers. The DEA is more interested in finding that marijuana is bad than to accept that there are benefits; this is probably to keep their department fully funded in the misguided war on drugs.

I said the same thing SoCal is not the place to study anything because of its pollution.

bad news
haha not only does continual use make people into zombies, their jewels also fall off. which effect is worse? self-cleaning feature of the gene pool. None of this green leafy stuff would be bad if people would practice moderation. But they don't..

Marijuana increases testicular cancer risk
Not only does it rot your brain, makes your balls fall off as well as causing hair to grow on your palms. The sky will also fall down and you will spend eternity in purgatory.

What else did they do?
These studies are swayed . Some of these people go home and smoke 2 packs of cigarettes or drink a bottle of vodka. Food, Southern California Pollution, water you name it SOCAL is not the place to be studying cancer. Enough Said.
