“Herb is the healing of a nation, alcohol is the destruction.” ~Bob Marley

I Honestly Never understood why Alcohol was legal but Marijuana wasn't, There has been any recorded deaths from Just Marijuana but Alcohol kills thousands of people in all different ways. I am not saying Marijuana doesn't have any bad effects on people but alcohol seems to be just as worse.

I hope so! Cheers

They made it illegal before. It didn't work for them. If we still had the same country as we had back during prohibition, we'd have been able to get cannabis legalized already, too.

MMM, your account is like Reddit on a 24 hour delay. :p

Actually, there HAVE been deaths recorded because of marijuana. If you excluded deaths from alcohol in the same way you must for marijuana, you could say that alcohol ALSO created no deaths. Of course, I am talking about the normal alcohol today.

There were a LOT of reasons that the ban on alcohol was lifted. Crime was rampant, and speak easies helped finance it, politicians were crooks and often protected speak easies, got kick backs, etc.... Various raids were a burden. ANOTHER thing was that people tried making their own and ended up with methanol. They also used lead pipes, and got lead poisoning. So pick your reason. It seemed it wasn't doing any good though. Methanol is supposedly sweet, and nice, but it causes liver problems, blindness, and potentially death.

I dont think it would be legal if that was the case. You can put it in the same catagory as meth or any other drug. Its man made out other manmade products. But the argument is this. Soda has been proven just as harmful in the long run if you drink 1 a day. Theres tons of other products harmful too. Should we ban them all?

Somebody PLEASE duct tape a Purple Erkle blunt in seasoned's mouth!

Personally I wish neither of them existed, referring to alcohol and marijuana.
