I think inhaling ANY substance into your lungs that comes off burning material is a bad idea to start with. I mean sure, I do it here and there, but I'll never debate that the health issues are there. My main issues are based on my personal experiences - how my body has reacted to both these things, and my observation of others also. It DOES seem that alcohol is not only more addictive, but used far more regularly, and in greater quantities than most green smokers...I mean, weed is more expedient and potent in it's effects, I guess that's why.
Again, it's a moderation thing...going into excess with either can hurt you, but I've seen a lot more go down the "occasional alcohol use to complete alcoholism" road than "occasional toke to complete pothead" path. So I gotta remain slightly biased to that extent.
As for mixing tobbacco with it...nah...unless it's a blunt in which I'll use the least chemically altered tobbacco available to me.

Or how about a child who has parents that are diehard pot heads and they are forced out of the house or shut in their room until all the friends are gone.

As I've said, I don't really indulge enough anymore for this to be an issue, but all the same...
I would never smoke weed anyplace around a child. I probably wouldn't get tanked around a kid either. Smoking, definately not...because I'd never do anything that's going to fuck with a childs health in their formative years. They don't have a choice in where they live until theyre 16 (here), I think they should at least have the choice of clean air in their lungs. This wouldn't only be to set an example, but very much moreso to protect the health of the child. I think parents that smoke ANYTHING near/with their children ought to have a little more respect, and understand that responsibility doesn't stop at feeding, clothing, and giving a roof to their child.
