Pot is smoked and instantly gets into the body. That is faster than being injected with a drug. Look it up in medical websites if you don't believe it. Alcohol can be sipped or drank slowly over time with food and someone may never even get close to high. So, they are nothing like each other unless the alcohol drinker is abusing the drinking. Legalization of all pot would be a disaster, it gets instantly throughout the body when smoked through the lungs at lightening speed and that is nothing like alcohol at all. But, abusing the drinking of alcohol under many circumstances is illegal already, if you were looking to ban all alcohol, then go for it!

LMAO---let me again reiterate how much these threads piss me off, because of ANTI drug propaganda that is used to prove points. Just as with alcohol, smoking pot is not a linear event. The more you consume the more it will affect you and visa-versa. Also, injection is the fasted way to have a substance enter the body and "start working." Your whole point about smoking a drug is ungrounded, false, and does nothing to differentiate between alcohol and pot.

Revert to my other post, Conservatism is based in experience, liberalism is based in theory. So get "experienced" or don't post on these threads which you know nothing about.

So?

I have the God given right to grow and use Marijuana. Imagine if people could get high just as easily off dandylions. Boy oh boy would the nanny state have it's hands full.

BTW, I must re-iterate that I haven't touched the stuff since 1977 and was shocked to find my friend (a manager at Microsoft in his late 40's) sharing a bong with friends in his backyard at a party LITERALLY trying to hide it from my observation.

I think the stuff is really stupid, outside real medical applications. But from my perspective it is a rights issue.
