With medical or recreational marijuana now legal in 23 states, plus Washington D.C., many people can now swap their nightly glass of wine for a joint without worrying about being fined or, worse, jailed. However, there’s a lot of conflicting opinions out there on the dangers of pot and alcohol. Which of the two do you think is safer? Would you smoke pot over drinking alcohol if it was legal?

“No one has ever died from a pot overdose, and it is not addictive. I have to say pot is safer than alcohol.”

“Just in August, a college kid in Denver jumped to his death from eating marijuana-laced food. Today’s Mary Jane is way stronger than just 30 years ago. It’s being synthesized into stronger stuff all the time.”

“Should we legislate stupidity, as long as it doesn’t hurt me? Smoke them if you got them.”

“Nobody has ever died from a pot overdose, but they have died from pot induced auto accidents and from people jumping over balconies.”

“If someone jumps from a balcony; they have way bigger problems than smoking some marijuana.”

“In some cases yes, but the point is pot causes an altered state of mind and people may do things they normally wouldn’t. I say if you feel like you need to get high (recreationally), you may have psychological problems to begin with.”

“With pot you’re not up puking from overdoing it.”

“One thing to consider: any time smoke of any kind goes into your lungs, it is still carcinogenic, and chronic bronchitis can still develop from marijuana use. There really is no “lesser of two evils” here.”

“You can always ingest marijuana as well, which I’m sure is much safer. Either way, smoking marijuana is way better than smoking cigarettes. and alcohol is absolutely terrible in all aspects as we all know.”

“Don’t assume anything. Marijuana cookies can be 10 times stronger than a single joint.”

“It’s still dope. I don’t drink, I don’t smoke. Neither does my husband. We never needed a crutch. We relied on inner strength and faith in God to see us through many problems not the lower-base character flaws of most drinkers and dopers, but medical problems brought on by a near death accident whose injuries continue to plague us. So, no I don’t need dope. The weak in mind and the people who boast of their character flaws can smoke dope until their brain turns to stone.”

“Dope is for dopes!”

“There is no question which is safer. Marijuana is much safer. Please support Pittsburgh Norml for more information.”

“After 40 some years of smoking it my brain still hasn’t turned to stone.”

“If you vaporize you don’t have to inhale smoke. You just inhale the vapor. Alcohol makes people mean. To quote Tracy Morgan,. “The Incredible Hulk is no super hero. He’s just like some drunk white dude in the bar.”‘
