I think in the west alchohol has been around for way way longer, so it's part of the culture.

Great fucking point.
They tried to outlaw it in the 20s, but all the old school alkys were violent as shit so they put it back in liquor stores, and pot was actually legal then, till the 30s :thumbsup:

I don't really feel that Marijuana should be legalized. Once you realize why, its quite clear. The whole concept of it being illegal is what promotes the responsible use of it. When I was younger, I would think how great it would be for an entire society to be high all the time, but now I finally realize why this drug does need to be regulated. I feel that the current regulation for Marijuana is not entirely fair, and that it should atleast be decriminalized to a point where prison time should not be considerable. But then again, this fear of such penalty is what creates responsibilty with the drug. If you are using it responsibly, you won't get caught.. and its that simple.

because the govt. always (for some odd fucking reason) seems to want to take shit away from their people, they tried to do that as well with alcohol, but since drunk-ards tend to be 100x more violent then potheads, (and even more widespread) it didn't work out too well so the govt. had no choice but to re-legalize it...

i dont really think things need to be outlawed in order to handle them responsibly. you didnt really give any reason as to why it should be regulated besides the lack of individuals ability to regulate their own lives, which is a direct result of depending on the government in the first place to tell you what is right and what is wrong.

Yes. The government has absolutely nothing better to do than take things away from "their" people.. I think some of you really need to learn some more about the world before you go around with ignorant standpoints and making ridiculous statements like that..

alchohal has been around mutch longer, and is known in some religeons as holy, like wine, etc. and the real question is, why is marijuana illegal, not why is alchohal legal and marijuana NOT. marijuana was banned for the sole purpose that agriculturally, it is of Higher value than Tobacco, and ESPEACIALLY Wood trees, forr making, paper, fiber, etc. and yes DuPont, we are looking at you, they had advised the feds to outlaw it and use the mexican slang term "marihuana" for the reason,thus came reefer madness, the movie that says marijuana makes you kill people.. then for soem reason in vietnam, the government abruptly changes their mind in saying tha cambodes are selling it to the soldiers to pacify them and make them not want to fight...anyway, dupont said that marijuana is crazy, and that it should be outlawd, even though they relied only on Wood, forest, to make their carpets, paper, tape, ETC. and they used regular OIL in their paints, and cannabis Oil is superieor than to that of regular oil, and 1 acre of hemp can produce more than 4 times that of regular wood, and grows in 2 years, where as regular wood takes about 22 years. so they would go BANKRUPT. and this is a big company, beleive it or not, about 90% of the US probobly has something made by dupont, or branch of their company. they are actual blood family members, so they devise a somewhat crude plan to keep anything made of hemp off the streets.

George Washington (first american president) said this himself "sow the indian hemp seed everywhere"

i type too mutch.

I 100% agree with Dutch Masta. I love weed, don't get me wrong. I'm just not pushing for it to be legal.

As for why is alcohol legal, I agree that it is more imparing then marijuana? Simple. MONEY.
