If you want to get stoned, go to your nearest liquor store.
A bottle of Whiskey, Gin, Vodka will get you stoned out of your mind. And it costs probably less than an oz of pot.

So why is’nt every one getting stoned?
It is because most of us value our health, and our family.

Now just explain to me why illegal drugs is a multi-Billion dollar business. In spite of all the laws on the books!

Different strokes for different folks. As for me & my house, I HATE alcohol. I hate its bitter taste, I hate its addictiveness, I hate the violence that it brings in people, I hate vomiting my guts out, & I simply hate being drink.

I'd much rather kick back, smoke a joint & watch TV & laugh w/ my friends while we wait for the pizza delivery guy to knock on the door.

The reason illegal drugs is a multi-Billion dollar business is, there is a lot of demand.

The reason alcohol is a multi-Billion dollar business is, there is a lot of demand.

So, what is the difference between alcohol and drugs?

1. It is possible to have a small to medium amount of alcohol and not get altered. It is not possible to just have a little weed and not get altered.

2. Marijuana has been proven, statistically, to be a gateway drug. That is, is has been proven that those who regularly use (not just try) marijuana go on to harder drugs far more often than those who regularly use (not just try) alcohol.

3. Moderate, consistent use of alcohol does not induce psychosis. Moderate, consistent us of marijuana frequently does.

If we all lived on our separate islands, I would not have as much of a stake in it. We don’t, though. Our society depends on a majority of sane, sober, rational adults.
