I don’t think anyone can show that because it is true that marijuana is less harmful than alcohol and tobacco.

Statistics are irrelevant. Personal experience is all that matters. Personal reaction, level of intoxication, and after Fx. It’s something only the user can decide.

I wonder why so many people offer the relative healthiness of one drug over another as a reason for legalization. The effects of marijuana are irrelevant. I am a free person who owns my body. If I choose to use and don’t harm you, who are you to say otherwise?

No one can show you that proof, because it simply isn’t true.
Alcohol is more dangerous directly to the body itself. It causes problems with multiple organs, including the brain. People die from alcohol poisoning, which isn’t that hard to accomplish. It severely impairs motor functions, cognitive reasoning, and verbal skills.
Marijuana harms the lungs. It can lead to some forms of cancer. No one has died from marijuana poisoning. If enough marijuana is consumed, it can lead to severe impairment of motor functions, cognitive reasoning, and verbal skills. Generally people don’t consume enough marijuana to have the same effect on them as a night of drinking.
Alcohol ravages the body. In doses that are higher than the average smoker generally indulges, marijuana can harm the body, but not to the extent that the average amount of alcohol does.

1. You cannot die from overdose of marijuana. YOU CAN die from drinking too much.
#2. There’s no such thing as an “angry marijuana user”. We have all heard of the term “Angry drunk”.
#3. Marijuana festivals are usually free from violence (Seattle’s Hempfest has been fight-free since it began). Alcohol related festivals are always in the paper because of the fighting/violence.
I could really go on and on about this subject but I will spare you all.
