If Alcohol Legal And Is More Dangerous Than Marijuana, Then Why Is It Illegal?
I don’t smoke or drink, and when I do drink is for just fun with a friend family! Drinking is more dangerous then smoking marijuana, but I don’t understand why smoking it is illegal? That’s stupid!
Alcohol is legal, if you drink moderately, but if you drink more than the required dose, then its the time it became illegal. Would you believe in some areas, marijuana is used in treating patients, especially those with acute diseases? But then again, you don’t abuse using marijuana.

Greetings. the war on drugs started so that the federal kingdom of the FBI could be justified. since they were supposed to be against alcohol and that was no longer banned. what were these secret police supposed to do? simply get other jobs? never. the government never relinquishes power in anything it once obtains. so the war on the then legal drugs. opium, you could buy landanum at the drug store. Marijuana? common among the then Mexican labor forces who brought it with them. again legal. all the other drugs? samething. government simply decided to make everything illegal and send the FBI to go after it. didn’t bother to get a Constitutional ammendment to do so as they did with alcohol prohibition, just made it illegal since they were God and could do as they liked. We have had the war on drugs ever since the repeal of prohibition, spent untold billions of dollars on it and created enormous drug bureaus of secret police. and we have more drugs here now then ever. Just a government money grabbing act is all. it has nothing to do with should or should not marijuana be legal.

Because marijuana has a bad image on it. Just think about it if you tell a person you drink the person would be like “Thats cool” but if you tell a person you do weed they would be turned off or look at you with contempt.

The answer is very simple. Simply because marijuana is not alcohol that’s why it is illegal. Understand?

I think the question is “Why is alcohol legal?” Instead of legalizing drugs we should be worried about limiting access to the ones we have now. Pot is just as dangerous as alcohol behind the wheel of a car. The reason why Pot is illegal is because it is not as socially accepted among those who are considered respected individuals. Show me 1 respecteable pothead, just 1.
