Wow...didn't expect this kind of outcome on the poll. Seems to me people here can't handle themselves a drink. Either that, or everyone's like "Legalize it, man..." (say it in Jamaican accent, it's more fun).
Anyway, can't really act like this without a reason, so I better explain myself: alcohol has a nutritive value of zero, but in calories, only fats are richer in energy. You can check me on this if you want, but it is true. This is why it makes people act out, and all that. In some people, it simply inhales life.
Pot serves the one purpose of dragging life out of you. It alleviates the pain (which is good for sports/terminal illnesses), but most people love the feeling that it gives them - it makes you relax. That is why it's a lot more dangerous. Instead of finding a purpose to direct the life energy you are granted in your youth, you go and spend your youth, and slowly kill that energy.

I'm not here to tell anyone they should not do any of the above. Hell, I am not a good example of that myself. But, one must realize the pros and cons of his actions. And if people are more afraid of a good drink than of weed, well... I know my late grandfather always judged a man by the way he could handle a drink. He was never wrong. Not once.

well alcohol does actual physical damage to you

I agree with you. But, so does weed. Honestly, I agree fully with Yondaime Namikaze. It's all about you.
The thing most people here argue is taxing. Not so true. Anyone can make their own beer, wine, brandy etc. People here seem to think that factories just came to Earth from outer-space and started making stuff at the economies of scale and all...

The fact that weed has any votes shows me the level of ignorance a lot of people on the base have when it comes to drugs. Health class doesn't count as true knowledge in this kind of stuff, if you voted marijuana you need to read up on the two.

both have severe risks, both lead to cancer. there are no reports on marijuana deaths because doctors are not alloud to ask what people smoke, so often it is interpreted as a tabacco related death.
the difference is that marijuana is an inhaled drug while alcohol is an ingested drug.
both are very bad for you and neither should be used in my oppinion

Alcohol, the only reason why it's still legal is because the economy would suck even more w/o it. Same with cigarettes.

You clearly didn't get the reasoning of people (me if anything) mentioning prices and tax. The point was the fact that they can't make it illegal since the amount of money loss would be ridiculous! There are probably more deaths from alcohol then extasy, cocaine and weed put together. Yet it isn't becoming illegal, because there is too much money in it. Same with smoking.

Let me answer your question with a question..

Who is the most dangerous, The Drug Lords or The Alcoholic Beverage Manufacturer??

Who is the most dangerous, A person who is high with dope or a drunkard?

To answer this question, you must focus on the end result, and which among the two has the greater risk. There are more drug related crimes all over the globe, than Alcohol. And most of these crimes are violent in nature.

All Countries Judicial system would agree that drug related crimes has a greater penalty.

I smoke a lot of mj and drink quite frequently......mj is completely harmless, in fact most of the effect it has on you is physiological due to over hype of the drug, but alcohol just ****s your body and mind up, now it's true that smoking mj as a lifestyle will cause physical and sum mental problems it still isn't deadly but alcohol as a life style can and almost certainly will **** up your life, or even end it

depends if your smoking marijuana before youre 18 it can cause your braincells and shit to stop growing but taking it after your 18 doesnt actually have to many ill-effects on your health where as alchol does so imo smoking mara before your fully devolped is worse than alcohol however later in life alcohol can be worse

Alcohol is more dangerous for its effects on judgement, motor skills and emotional hazards. But, marijuana is definitely a gateway drug. That sounds corny as hell but it is for people with addictive personalities. Now, I'm not saying it's bad for everyone because it's not, IT'S ALL NATURAL. But, for me personally it was, because i definitely led me into the harder shit for sure. I went from that to coke, then coke to opiate pain killers, and when the pills were too expensive i started coin heroin. Within months of being hooked on it, i was shooting 20-30 bags a day. That's the equivalent of 3-4 grams of dope. And, I'm from new jersey, look anywhere online and you will see that New Jersey has the purest Heroin not only in the state, but in the world. And a lot of people say no way, the countries that make it do, but that's b.s. They ship it here so pure with no cut because our country has a better market for it that anywhere. And it's ****ed up that i got from weed and alcohol to this. But it's serious, so just stick with the weed and booze, **** all them people that try to get you to try it, and **** your mind if it tells you it's okay because it's not. The only reason i have 3 years clean is because of NARUTOBASE.net Nah I'm just playin. But it was the hardest thing i ever did in my life to kick drugs, and not being able to party with my normal friends and family that don't have problems but can still get trashed and blazed. I hope i help someone.

Absolutely no reason. A friend of mine just died from drinking. He would have had to smoke half his weight of cannabis for him to have died, and you're more likely to just pass out before hand. I understand that dealing causes violence, but if it were legal, monitored as much as alcohol and taxed, what harm would come of it? Obesity and heart disease kill more people than marijuana does but we didn't make Big Macs illegal.

Ok so I think this can make a great discussion. What do you think is more dangerous of the two. And I have another question, why is alcohol legal if it kills tons of people(intoxication, drunk driving), and marijuana illegal if people rarely die smoking it?

Deff alcohol. Alcohol can screw up your liver, alcohol poisoning, drunk driving. Where as marijuana just makes you feel good xd

Short answer alcohol. Won't argue it far too much to type and the ignorant will believe what they want in the end.
