i think one of the biggest reasons people have a bad view of pot is because it gets you high. the word high is lumped in with other drugs such as cocaine. with alcohol you get drunk which is more accepted and no one ever says "im going to go smoke a cigarette and get high". if they do refer to getting high with a cigarette it is usually a nicotine high which is widely accepted. i believe that a huge step to legalization is to find a different term to label what pot does to you. something that wont scare people.
