He might have just been trying to be a responsible adult, so take this with a grain of salt, but Frank Zappa was skeptical about the enjoyment people claimed to get from smoking reefer, since, for him, the experience was unpleasant. It was unpleasant for me as well, but I'm an asthmatic, so my experience probably doesn't apply to others here.
I have no data on this, but maybe the paranoia people get from smoking reefer is a part of the bodies panic response when you fill your lungs with fire and smoke. Holding smoke in your lungs is also what happens when you're dying of smoke inhalation; your body may not be able to tell the difference, so it makes you paranoid. Just a thought.
I think its also been said that having it illegal can create paranoia because by smoking it you're doing something illegal...so the risk of being penalized. But I think for some people THC can make them feel more anxious or paranoid regardless of those other potential reasons for paranoia.
