I suspect that many, if not most, of the horror stories of what pot smokers have done are based on people who smoked pot while drinking alcohol. In such a case it would not matter much if they were smoking tobacco instead. There are countless disasters brought about by those who smoke tobacco and drink alcohol but the tobacco has little or nothing to do with the disaster. I have consumed enough alcohol to float a sizable boat but I don’t think alcohol would stand any chance of legalization if it were a new thing and neither would tobacco.

This is an interesting observation:

It seems MJ suppresses the healthy urge to puke when toxic levels of alcohol are ingested.

Oops!

Hey, give em a Darwin Award - but KEEP THEM OFF THE ROAD WHILE THEY EARN IT.

Lots of things are a bit less fashionable today than they were circa 1933.

“The seeds of public relations problems that would sprout over the following century were sown with Coors’s friendship with a prominent supporter of the local Ku Klux Klan.“
