So as a person of principle you also support a return to alcohol Prohibition - correct?
No, as a person who did drug/alcohol counseling for years, I would (1) point out the differences between pot and alcohol, and (2) point out that alcohol is under legal controls.
As for point #1, there is a known blood/alcohol parameter beyond which people are driving impaired. With pot, the active ingredient is used to “get high”, and that is the first effect of the substance. IOW, “high” is driving impaired, whereas a single social drink about every 1.5 hours or so does not approach impairment at all.
So, we’re talking about real information about differences between the two. If there were a joint that could be smoked that did not get the person high, and they could then drive unimpaired, then I’d view alcohol and marijuana the same. I suspect, however, that if someone were selling pot that couldn’t get you close to high after one joint that that wouldn’t be very popular pot.
I don’t know your state, but in mine there must be a license to sell alcohol, hard alcohol can be sold only in state stores, there is an age limit for use, and the books are full of driving and behavior penalties for impairment by alcohol and illegal sales of alcohol.
