I NEVER understood why pot has had such a fanatical opposition to it all these years. So much wailing and gnashing of teeth at the mere mention of legalization, yet more harmful substances and all, seem to be accepted much more freely

Neither is whizzing on the electric fence- but adults should have the ability to decide for themselves.

Might be in desperate need for a life if after 5 years you're still so concerned about the topic.

Cigs are bad for obvious reasons. Geez.

And who said that pot is cool?

Honest Question for Libs: Why is smoking cigs bad, but smoking pot is cool?
Why do you think all liberals think smoking cigarettes is bad, and smoking pot is good?

Being stoned is NOT as bad as being drunk or high off pills. I think that's what you meant.

Liberals tend to be more moralistic when it comes to things like truancy, underage drinking, song lyrics, tv and movie content, obesity, etc. while conservatives tend to be more moralistic when it comes to homosexuality, sex outside marriage, contraception, abortion, etc.

They're both carcinogenic, both stink like crazy and both are terrible for your body. Yet Neo Progs everywhere are advocating for recreational pot smoking and at the same time advocating against cigs.
Wrong, marijuana is not carcinogenic, in fact it may help with some kind of cancers. Tobacco and pot are totally different substances.

Well, you know, that depends on what country you're in. In some countries getting stoned is not a good thing.
