Why do people think marijuana kills brain cells?

In the 30's, the government conducted a series of tests on primates relating to brain function with continued use of marijuana. They started the primates on a number of joints a day, then after no sign of brain cell damage they hooked them up to gasmasks with 300 Columbian strength joints hooked up to a gas system. When the primates inhaled, they were inhaling little to no oxygen, and this continued for hours upon end for months straight. The suffocation led to permanent brain damage. The scientists, looking for something to dish out to the government to make marijuana illegal, blamed the brain damage on marijuana. But tests since then have proved this theory wrong again and again. Recent studies show that marijuana may stimulate brain cell function.
