yawn nothing new here the comon trying to lump pot in with hard drugs and not even mention how alcohol is worse
here is why alcohol is worse
1 causes people to get violent
2 you hear about alcohol causeing driveing accidents but not pot
3 drinking can take away more self control
4 more minors abuse alcohol then tobacco or marijuana
"The prevalence and toll of underage drinking in America is widely underestimated: it costs the nation a conservatively estimated $53 billion
annually. More young people drink alcohol than smoke tobacco or use marijuana

5 your at higher risk for HIV if you drink in 2 ways
1 your less likely to use protection and be less selective of who you have sex with.
2 alcohol weakens the cells in the mouth against hiv infection

the key to both alcohol and marijuana is moderation
I personally dont do eather because I have alergic rections to alcohol and I dont care much for the effect marijuana has on me not that they are
anything major its just not my thing.
so from all the things I have read about marijuana to personal experience I conclude its no worse then anything out there thats leagle
here is a link to the documents from the
national accadamy of sciences where you can form your own
conclusions
