Every time you post that "alcohol is more dangerous than marijuana, yet alcohol is legal and marijuana is not", you're using a "danger scale" that I will not recognize.

You don't recognize it? The "danger scale" is the entire basis for the WOD. The feds can throw out whatever ICC argument they want, but the basis of the CSA and laws against "drugs" is that they are "too dangerous". Thats why there is the "Class schedule".

Almost everything government "regulates" is done so on the basis of "danger".

If you don't buy the "Danger scale", then on what basis do you support "drugs" being illegal? I don't tgink you have ever answered that question. In fact, your posts that I have read on this topic in the past seem to indicate that you in deed do support "Drugs" being illegal on the basis that they are "too dangerous". Please clarify your position.

MrLeRoy had the same question. I answered him, as I do you, in my post #86 on this thread.

Check my source in the tag line. The WOD does not use a "danger scale".

Schedules I through V in the CSA differ on 'potential for abuse' and 'level of dependency', not danger.
