Weed vS Alcohol.. Winner is.. WEED!

So I was up at like 4 a.m. and knew I should have went to sleep instead of flipping through the channels because it always bug me out. You got the infomercials selling knives, the billion church joints.. Sidebar, what the hell is up with that white man as the preacher with the whole damn stadium full of people? Do they pass around the collection plate even when its thousands of people in attendance? Anyway..

I see the new commercial where they in the taxis singing biz markie just a friend.. Drink responsibly is the slogan.. They don't mention how many accidents people die in because of drunk drivers naw, they singing in the car, having fun being drunk. Then I see the commercial where the kid is at a party and walks to the back room and his conscious talks to him about the good and bad about smoking weed. His dad on one shoulder saying is it worth making mom cry, basketball team saying is it worth it, a pizza guy saying it didn't effect me and so on.. Then I got mad because.. YES, I SMOKE WEED.. Well from time to time.. The most weed has ever done is made me hella hungry and hella sleepy which isn't bad. It didn't effect me graduating high school or college, my mom still loves me, and a pizza guy during this fucking recession would be a blessing!

Alcohol is waaay worse in soo many ways. I don't need to elaborate how I think drinking is worse then smoking weed. I just like how the government portrays it as "the gateway drug." My aunt has been smoking for like 25 years and didn't get into anything else. My Grandfather was drinking for 25+ years and died from cancer in his liver. I understand that they aren't making money from weed but please don't portray Alcohol as the accepted substance abuse. Get drunk, that's cool just get a tax and you'll be fine.. If you get high, you will drop out of high school, become a pizza guy and never amount to anything.. WTF? The way the world works is fucking amazing.

If they legalized weed do you think the commercials would change? Hell yeah lol! I'm not saying everyone should just smoke weed.. Just don't believe the hype with these commercials..

i personally don't think they should legalize weed because the big companies will try to make the shit stretch and put the shit that gives you cancer in it and weed will no longer be weed. just keep on buying that shit the way we do.

Yup, they teach us in school that drinking and smoking weed and cigs are equally bad. But weed doesn't kill you, if it does it's because the smoker did something overally extra'ed out. But anyway, that's why I don't smoke or drink :)

Alcohol is worse but I guess accidents will have to come to an all time high or something for it to change :(

You know I'm difficult...so this is how I feel about it...

I wouldn't put quotations around gateway drug because that is definitely what weed is...who makes up the majority of the country?...white Americans...they are also the ones who are more experimental with things. Out of all of the white friends and people that I know who started off smoking weed, they have all done shrooms and E...all of them..and they have all done these more than once. Now..they still smoke weed...but get bored sometimes and want to try something new. I can't say all white individuals are like this...but everyone I know has gone on to other drugs. So with that being said I believe it is a gateway drug for white society...and they make up the majority...and that's where I see the commercials coming from..but really..can you blame weed for being the only root of the problem of white individuals dying from E..or something?..there are definitely people who have tried worse drugs without smoking weed..i still believe it's a gateway...but it doesn't ALWAYS follow that path.

With alcohol...oh I believe it's bad...I don't think people realize it though. I believe many people don't actually know what binge drinking is..or they do know and think it consists of drinking more than it actually is. Everyone binge drinks..everyone..and when drinking hard alcohol it's even worse...5 shots can be counted as binge drinking. If someone goes out and goes hard two or three days a week every week..of course it's going to cause serious damage to the liver...people don't realize these things.

so that's just how I see it. my mind is elsewhere so hopefully it doesn't sound dumb lol.

I agree Emcee but when black people smoke.. To get higher, they smokre more blunts. They don't say hey, lets try E or shrooms. White people experiment with everything in my opinion. Their naturally curious. Thats why you have people on animal planet being attacked by sharks and all that. When they say gateway drug, they don't say for whites only. They give people who've never tried a false connotation about weed. All I'm saying is when they give out information, just give out facts and let folks decide for themself.

Drinking though.. That is a monster that folks try to brush off. Its an accepted way to harm ya body. Just like cigs. But hey.. It is what it is.

he impairment one gets from alcohol and the impairment one gets from weed are 2 different types of intoxication .. Being drunk can get you into ten times more shit than marijuana can .. For one; when your drunk you loose a major sense of self .. You get the idea that you can do anything and that your perfectly fine .. When your high; majority of the time you mood either is up or down .. Up meaning you are laughing ridiculously or down you are sleepy .. The government just cant make any cash off of weed so they decide to consider it a deadly drug or somethin .. smh

After taking statistic and research classes, I have learned that the stats and info given to mass population is only half true. We r not given they results that prove weed is NOT bad for you. They only say wht they want us to believe, so i DEFINATELY agree with you DizZ
