You should read up on sugar to see just how bad it is for you. --> in your alternative medicine book?
Lets try an easy one. Smoking nicotine. Cigarettes are insanely more dangerous,, addictive and bad for you than marijuana. You up for banning smoking? Good luck.
--> You didn't mention nicotine. I agree nicotine is at least as bad, probably worse.
Smoking kills people. Drinking kills people. Sugar and overeating kills people. Not getting enough exercise kills people. Marijuana ahh... not so much.
--> That's such a crap argument. 1) Death rate is not all that matter. Other aspects, such as quality of life, burden of disease, health care costs etc matter, too. 2) Just because other things are bad doesn't mean weed can't be bad, too 3) just because other things kill, too, doens't mean deaths due to weed are unimportant.
