BUZZ!!! You brought up alcohol and marijuana, not me, so you cannot claim this fallacy.

Nice try, though.

Uh dude. You might want to look at your message #39. You said:

“Excessive alcohol use is a leading cause of preventable death. This dangerous behavior accounted for approximately 88,000 deaths per year from 2006–2010, and accounted for 1 in 10 deaths among working-age adults aged 20–64 years.”

Marijuana has a looooooooong way to go to catch up to alcohol in this department.

Which was in response to your post, #15, where you brought up the comparison. If you bring up a comparison, you invite comment on it, and cannot subsequently accuse others of a “tu quoque” fallacy when they comment on the comparison that YOU brought into the discussion.

Really, this is like Debate 101.
