58,000 die on the roads each year due to alcohol

300,000 die each year due to the ravages of alcohol addiction

0 people die each year due to marijuana

Do the math

Legalization of marijuana has nothing to do with how many deaths are marijuana-related.

Um, you're facts are wrong. Alcohol leads to death, the same way if you operate a car under the influence or marijuana.    

 However, I'm for legalizing it, that way the government can tax the fuck out of it and make a profit.


 

 i'm pretty sure the op is talking about directly related to, not related to as a result of doing something while on it  

 


Mmhmm, can actually die sitting and drinking alcohol, no vehicles involved. But I dnt think you can with marijuana, don't know for a fact though peeps


it's physically impossible to OD on THC, supposedly...scientists calculated that you'd have to smoke something like over 10 tonnes of cannabis in 30 seconds to OD...
there's been one guy that has officially overdosed on cannabis, though in reality, he most likely just suffocated due to the huge amount of carbon monoxide from the amount of cannabis he'd have had to smoke...if he had consumed the same amount using a vaporiser, he probably wouldn't've had the same problem...

fuck knows what was going through his mind when he attempted that, though...'right, i'm gunna save up all my cash for a few years, then blow it all on a good few pounds of cannabis, then not leave the room until i've successfully smoked it all'...

Im with you, Marijuana has over 1000 diff uses also and shouldn't be illegal, spesh as there are some legal ones that do far worse damage.

If they lealized it, then what would potheads have to be outraged about?

i dont actually know anyone who smokes pot who is 'outraged'
just annoyed at the hypocrisy of it all

It can cause diseases though, (I think).

But yeah, that's true.


and alcohol doesn't?

NOTHING. We'd never hear from them again.

Plus, it's not about the safety, it's not about health risks, it's not about addiction, it's about the government not making a profit off of it. Once the government finds a way they could tax it, it will be legal.

Bullshit. I'm not going to start with counting up how many die of things/diseases resulted from smoking marijuana. + how many die from people being uncareful during being stoned?  



actualy, a portion of car accident deaths were a result of the driver being too stoned to drive.
says who

Well,


0 people die each year due to marijuana

Says who?
Pffft

the statistics are based off of DIRECT correlation, not from doing things while being high, which means nothing regarding legalization because the numbers do not even come close to deaths related to the consequences of what people do while being drunk

comprehension ftw

i'm on the fence
decriminalizing, all for it
but i fear that if it is legalized, the quality will begin to go down for what you're paying

no sense in paying cash you'd pay for a good strain, but only getting ditch weed


Thinking this is better than my original comment.
