Shanks and urgeok, I see the points that you are trying to make... That too much of anything is not good. It's not good to use anything in excess... And I agree with that, but how can you say weed is as dangerous as beer?


How many people die each year from smoking themselves to death from too much marijuana?

How many people die a year from drinking too much alcohol?

How many people die each year being hit by a stoned driver?

How many people die each year being hit by a drunk driver?

And just for the sake of argument, how many people die each year because of smoking cigarettes?

Think about it. Marijuana is far and away the least physically harmful to society. That can't really be argued. The absolute worst thing that happens if someone gets too ridiculously high is that they might get the spins and/or puke. A half hour later they are tired, and that's pretty much it.

Now think about the worst case scenario for a night out drinking... I mean, come on...

How can anyone say with a straight face that weed is just as harmful to society as alcohol (or even cigarettes?)
