It's proven and been accepted here that Marijuana is no more dangerous than caffeine, alcohol, tobacco, and prescription drugs, right?

Then you must ask yourself, "why is marijuana, of all these things, illegal?"

The truth is, the lumber industry, the pharmaceutical industry, and the textile industry had a HUGE hand in it's prohibition, and still do today.

So apparently we just agree to disagree:

Some of us think it's okay for the Government to regulate what we eat, smoke, and do for fun -- others think it's the responsibility of the individual...


As compared to most drugs, Marijuana is the least dangerous. Pot is, chemically speaking, not an addictive drug. For those who claim it is, anything is theoretically addictive, and there are some people who can become addicted to exercise, food, and essentially ANYTHING.

In my experience, Pot is less addictive than coffee. I have become addicted to coffee myself and have broken the habit. You get mild headaches for a few days. I have never had any symptoms for withdrawal from Marijuana.
