You are wrong. Pot, especially today, is far more damaging than alcohol. Nevertheless, whether it’s alcohol or other drugs, criminalization of drugs (for adults) creates far more problems than their use. What matters is public intoxication (of any kind) and receipt of transfer payments of any kind by people using drugs. The “War on Drugs” needs to end, and resources need to be put into dealing severely with anyone who drives under the influence or who is intoxicated (by anything) in public. BTW, I’ve never used any illegal drug, and I do not drink alcohol and never have.

I think pot you buy on the street is more potent today than back in the day, no doubt about it.

And you are right, the problem is public intoxication.

“Pot, especially today, is far more damaging than alcohol.”

Wow, a seriously false statement, especially considering cannabis doesn’t have to be smoked at all these days with the various oral & non-combustible methods for using it.

Total and complete bulls**t. Alcohol destroys lives. Prisons are full of people who wish they had never drank that fateful night.
