So stfu, you're wrong.

P.S. - You contracted "you" and "are" the wrong way. Congrats. Plus I'm a human male. So therefore I can neither be a manly female, or a certain sort of landscape. Sorry.

Wrong. Being addicted means you are drawn to the substance in some sort of way.

P.S. - You said "stfu", that is improper English.

And you did it. You made me get out the dictionary.

Addiction - Noun: the state of being enslaved to a habit or practice or to something that is psychologically or physically habit-forming, as narcotics, to such an extent that its cessation causes severe trauma.

Sever trauma, meaning withdrawal symptoms. You fucking fail.

I have quite a different view, i believe pot is better because for one, alcohol is by far the least addictive drug but pot is not a habit forming drug. pot damages brain cells where, over time will repair them selves. alcohol kills brain cells. alcohol = shitty hang over, pot = hungry, happy, sleepy

I have never had a hang over, you just have to drink right.

According to Government reports 85,000 people die per year from Alcohol. Also, according to Government reports 0 people die a year from Marijuana. Alcohol is way more addicting then Marijuana and has more damage on your brain and liver. Marijuana gives short term memory loss, mostly for 10 digit numbers.

This is not true. Driving under the influence of marijuana gives you 2x the risk of being in a fatal car accident.

People who drive after using marijuana are nearly twice as likely to be involved in a fatal car crash.

Alcohol impairs more than marijuana does. Most people who smoke marijuana and drive are ussually seen driving 15 mph under the speed limit or some shit.

That's not a direct cause of death though.

Justin - Driving under the speed limit is actually extremely dangerous.

Pescados - I never said it was.

Your picking a disputing path that you know your going to lose, but in your bull headed personality you wont to go against others.

Weed.

Does not cause cancers.
You cannot overdose
You never hear of people dying from being under the influence of it. "Alchol you hear about on a daily basis"
