Which would you rather have?

Neither should be prohibited.
Prohibition leads to organized crime.

With the current state our country is in financially they should both be legalized and Taxed...Obviously talking about weed, because alcohol is already legal

why cant they both be legal?

if by 18 years old we are considered adults, allowed to join the armed forces to fight and die for our country, we should be allowed to smoke or drink whatever we want. we should have the RIGHT to make our own choices about out OWN ADULT bodies. am i right?

Both illegal. Because I don't think, that if you can't be content without taking mind-altering stuff, then you have some serious problems with yourself. With that being said, I don't stop people from smoking weed or drinking. I just avoid them, because I prefer people with a straight mind.

My friends who drink become stupid, loud, obnoxious and unpleasant to be around and then throw up. My friends who smoke marijuana become quiet, contented and more gentle. Easy choice.

i think people drinking alcohol causes more accidents than someone who just smoked pot and is driving. but than again i could be wrong because there are people such as myself -that cannot drive after smoking pot.(PERIOD) and of course i simply never drink or drive for safety.
but who am i to make a judgement. although my opinion is that i do think both are bad even though i have done both in the past. everyone does it

alcohol causes more problems

That's because drinking has been legal for a lot longer. If weed had been legal and drinking illegal for 90 years, I think you'd feel differently.

My mom was hospitalized for 2 months in a coma with Hepatitis from alcohol abuse. She almost died on the table 3 times.
In order to prevent crime associated with illegal subtances, I'm sure it would be in everyone's best interest to just legalize both. Or at least decriminalize weed (which is sortof what they've done in California, since the fine is a smaller amount of money and without jail time for a first offense) ALL drugs are decriminalized in Portugal, which means all the "bad" ones too. Decriminalization is not the same as legalization, an improvement in crime has been reported in Portugal since. Also, it's gone to show that less kids get into drugs because with people just shooting up and everything on the streets, they see firsthand how bad it can get. In Portugal, being thrown in jail for doing drugs has been replaced with the opportunity for therapy and recovery.

They are both bad.

Weed is a disgusting drug that can cause death. Alcohol can too, but alcohol is more social, so I picked option 1.

most people are just saying yes because they want to be original

I think the point of leaving out "legalize both" as an option was to get people to think. Personally, I enjoy alcohol and HATE weed with a passion, so I'm personally not affected by the cannabis ban.

However, there is an ethical component, as cannabis is used in medicine and has significantly fewer risks. So I made a bit of a personal sacrifice here, which I would be willing to do if it came down to it.

Obviously, criminalizing alcohol was a complete fiasco and made the problem worse, but think of the cancer patients.

Stay off my booze, potheads!

Both legal.

Seriously, the fact that alcohol is legal while marijuana isn't is just malarky.

I'd rather have marijuana be legal and alcohol illegal any day of the week.

I believe all drugs should be legal and you didn't give me that choice. That being said, if I had to choose one over the other it would be alcohol. I couldn't give up my nightly beers!

Thats a tough call

I like it the way it is. I am against alcohol and for weed, but I don't want pot regulated AT ALL.

BOUTH LEGAL

Weed and alcahol should both be legal, but there should be laws for each. For example it should be illegal to drive while high, just like it is with alcohol. They really need to legalize it though..

While I am in favor of legalizing marijuana, if I had to choose between the two, I'd still pick alcohol. I'd rather damage my liver than my lungs, but that's just my preference. :)

Crapp how do i edit a comment? I submited that without spell scheking it lol.

I dont mind people that smoke. But what gets to me is people who smoke and show off and think there tough. I just feel like grabbing my 42oz Smirnoff glass bottle and smashing it on their head.

Weed legal, alcohol illegal. Alcohol actually causes more problems like contributing to domestic violence and drunk driving, not to mention it's poisonous. Weed has more medical benefits and is not as poisonous, plus it's probably safer to drive while high than while drunk, and it won't make you beat your spouse. Alcohol is also worse at messing up the development of the teenage brain than marijuana is. So if one had to be legal and one illegal, it's marijuana that should be legal, however prohibition doesn't work so both should be legal.

I fucking hate alcohol and how it makes me feel.
I fucking love weed and how it makes me feel.

I think they should both be illegal. Alcohol can be very dangerous for obvious reasons. Especially if you drink and drive. And not to mention the other effects it has on a person's body.

Marijuana or "pot" or "weed" or whatever else you call it is illegal. And that's a good thing. It's not safer than alcohol by any means! First, there are way too many chemicals and active ingredients. No one knows if the makers added something else to the mix. Something new that they've never used before.

Second, you could die at any point in time while using it. As with any other illegal drug. Why would you risk your life for a stupid high- unless you're depressed....

Third, marijuana slows reaction time. If you just smoked it and went for a drive or something, you could kill yourself by not being able to react in time. Or, more importantly, you could kill someone else!
