    Im not trying to make alcohol look bad or anything but i think it should be the other way around- Pot is legal, beer is not. Heres why...

    How many times( on tv or in real life ) have you seen someone in a bar getting drunk and pissed of and get into a fight with someone else at the bar. Iv'e seen it many times. And also, If you get to drunk you could pass out, Throw up, get in an automobile accident, ect... But beer is legal.:confused:

    Now take some good old cannabis for example. Look at the people in ampsterdam(or however you spell it - pot is legal there). Compair one of ampsterdam's coffy shops, to an american bar. The people in the coffy shop smokin bongs NEVER get into fights. when they get stoned they are friendly and happy.And plus, the crime rate is much lower. Thats couse every one is stoned in ampsterdam. There is no need to steel. You cant pass out with pot, like overdose or something, you dont throw up, and it is less dangerouse when driving. But pot is illegal. That just pisses me off. Its such a wonderful plant!:mad:

    Also, on a spiritual level, God created everything for a reason. To live and breed and be happy. God made cannabis for just that reason. By the government making it illigal, they are just making pot extinct. Eliminating a creation of god. That is just sad.:( Marijuana should be wild and free.

    Beer is not a creation of god. it is man made and stupid. But pritty cool sometimes. The point is that there are so many reasons why pot should be legal and beer should not. Whitch do you choose. Tell me what you have to say.

    Beer or bud?;)

    Well you can partly thank the beer companies for pot not being legal. They donate a lot of money towards the war on drugs - their feeling being, as long as people can't readily buy bud, they can buy beer instead.

    Could you pull up a source to prove this. I have heard this from someone else also and I am interested.

    I always thought the same, if alcohol is legal, pot should be too. While being high it is much easier to control yourself then when you are drunk. Good point you stated though, ppl always get in fights while drunk and when you're high you usually just fool around and are happy.

    btw, you can pass out and get sick from pot.
