Alcohol probably kills more people than anything...in one way or another. But in comes in better flavors than pot.

Neither will drinking some alcohol.

Alcohol is the toughest on the body. The others are a toss up, acid won't ruin your lungs, pot rarely gives you flashbacks.
Oh, and people that try to fly off tall buildings, not the acid, they're just nuts.

I know some people that smoke regularly and are dumb as rocks. I don't think the pot effects either.

If you look long and hard you'll find some sort of tie, either coincidental or similar, between any substance and any ailment in the world.

Booz is of course the worst thing for u weed can do a lot of good things for u, but the government wont let people do full studies on it so how will the general pop know. All u know now is that it is very helpful for people going through medical conditions and thats it, but i think that it can do a lot more than that. Also it dont slow ur reaction time down that much i would knw

are you crazy??? if the amount of people that drink beer smoked pot, and did it in the same amounts, the world would spiral down into a gutter. neither is good in large quantities but the day marijuana is legalised in australia will be the day i lose all faith in its people.

people smoke weed and think amazing things are happening to them, people drinks alcohol and know that its a bad thing. a society can function with booze but not pot.

i've had my good time on pot and other drugs. but the only one that i felt had the least evil sense to it was alcohol.

nicotine was the worst. make that illegal.

That's because it's both legal and mostly socially acceptable.

Definitely alcohol.
From my own personal experience, by observation of people I know and from the facts.

I will offer one supporting example - I have known some lazy stoners in my time who decided one day to stop/ seriously cut back on their habit and change their lives. I have not known anyone whose life was as dependent on alcohol capable of doing that. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, I'm just suggesting it's harder to come back from a serious drinking habit.

Kagen4o4 · 03-19-2007, 02:56 PM

and if you make pot socially acceptable people wont stop, more people will take it up and you'll have a world full of stoners.

What can you do drunk that you can't do stoned?

(I've never been either, so I wouldn't know.)

A - it is already socially acceptable, but illegal.

B - is a world full of stoners any worse than a world full of drunkards?

C - what if alcohol were made illegal, and pot legal?

Just like legalizing alcohol made the world a full of alcoholics?

I think pot use would jump up if it was legalized but would eventually even out when that fad goes away.

No, I'm watching TV. Very similar effect, I gather.
