And where did I advocate they should be recreational drunks instead of stoners?

I’m not saying you did.

I’m just trying to set a baseline of relative harm to the individual.

For kids it’s far worse. It alters their brain chemistry even if it does not kill brain cells. I know a lot that have plowed through that, but there are also far too many who didn’t.

All in all, after my years on this earth, I have found more didn’t get past their binge drinking to become something/somebody than didn’t get past their pot smoking to be something.

And there’s NO WAY I would characterize that observation as an endorsement of pot...too.

Hell, my observations are probably not even statistically relevant.
