Question by Vic Romano: Is smoking pot better for your body than drinking alcohol?
It seems like getting wasted with pot would be healthier than getting wasted with alcohol, because it doesn’t harm your liver like excessive drinking does. I understand coke, heroin, etc. being illegal but pot doesn’t seem very harmful; just a different way to get stoned if you ask me. I don’t drink alcohol or smoke pot, but I think alcohol would be more harmful to your body. Is it? And if it is worse, then why is marijuana illegal and not alcohol as well? I’m not a junkie that sits around and whines about this kind of thing all day, I’m just curious.

Best answer:

Answer by No!
Drinking alcohol to a certain extent is legal. Driving while drinking is most dangerous and is therefore illegal.

Neither is a good life style though…

If you want to shock people, especially teens, start with something like ‘last year X amount of teenagers died as a result or in relation to alcohol’. Then you could throw in car crashes, date rapes, fist fights that result from alcohol, followed by liver disease, heart problems etc. Point out the homeless in the street and ask your audience how they think that tramp whth the cider bottle got there? Mention addiction, how alcohol ruins lives, destroys families. End it on a big plus on how people are starting to realise how serious drinking is and are becoming more responsible as a result. Hope that helps.
