Way to go out of your way to miss the point again.....You're getting really good at it.I just think pot is far and away better than liquor. If liquor is legal, there is no reason pot shouldn't be as well.
Why do you hate freedom?Nanny/Police Staters created 40,000 new Laws in 2011 alone. Big Brother just gets bigger & bigger by the year. I'm not quite sure why so many Americans have become Authority-Worshipping sheep. Maybe this explains it a bit?...

Yeah, the 5:00 mark of the video really does sum it all up. Most Americans only know Authority-Worship. And now here we are. What a sad mess.
Happy hour in the city could end if Department of Health policy party-poopers go ahead with a proposal to outlaw beer and booze specials at bars and restaurants, sources told The Post.
Its absolutely been discussed, confirmed a department source. It goes to show you the spirit with which they operate. Everyone is a child.
High-level conversations have gone beyond merely throwing pencils on the ceiling and seeing what sticks, another Health source revealed.
Sources said the happy-hour ban is being pushed by the agencys marathon-running boss, Commissioner Thomas Farley, and is serious enough for one source to say the alcohol lobby had better find itself a good lawyer.
Agency spokesman Sam Miller denied existing plans to pursue any policy around discount-alcohol sale.
But sources said the anti-booze sentiment at the agency has reached a fever pitch, with officials recently asking state officials about the legality of liquor in ice cream, referring to potent products infused with bourbon, rum and tequila.
A prohibition on discounted drinks is solidly in line with Farleys goals, which he outlined in his Take Care New York 2012 report.
n January, The Post revealed another sobering DOH scheme a plan to reduce the density of alcohol outlets.
If a ban is enacted, it would put the Big Apple on par with 19 states that prohibit happy hour.

I just think pot is far and away better than liquor. If liquor is legal, there is no reason pot shouldn't be as well.
The first rationale that comes out of their mouths viz. pot decrim is tax revenue.Socialists/Progressives are a prettty confused bunch. I see most of them pushing for legalizing Marijuana 24/7, while at the same time pushing for this kind of Nanny/Police State nonsense. They need to make up their minds and get real.
They don't really give a flying fuck over the "keep your laws off my body" aspect of it at all.

Considering the fairly different effects, that is nonsense.

well, to be fair, pot's never been my thing, but i've never heard of anyone getting into a bar fight while high on pot or driving the wrong way on a highway while high on pot.
i just don't see a huge difference in effect between me having a drink and someone else getting a little high.

The addictive effect is much higher and people high on pot do cause accidents. People can consume liquor and be in full control of their faculties.

We must remember that it's not just the Democrats who pass (or want to pass) nanny laws. If I recall, a certain (extraordinarily popular & supported) Republican Presidential candidate talked about how he would be very tough on his crackdown of "Hardcore Pornography". You know, because it's such a horrible sin and all....
And what about the recent bill H.R. 347 that was just passed by BOTH Republicans and Democrats, which basically is another bill that continues to nudge our 1st Amendment Rights into non-existence. How come our main "Small gov't" party - the Republicans - are helping usher these sorts of things through? Aren't they supposed to be the guys who want to limit the power of government?
If the Republicans actually wanted a smaller government, they'd be supporting guys like Paul instead of Romney. I hear a lot of you bitching about liberals left and right because of their big government policies, but have no problem supporting the Republican Party who co-authored bills such as the recent NDAA 2012 act. Again, this was another bill that was virulently opposed by Ron Paul because of it's big government implications, while other Republicans seemed not to care one bit.....

The addictive effect is much higher? I'll need to see a source, Sparky.
People can consume liquor and be in full control of their faculties. Really? I'm sure it happens sometimes. Not often enough to be posted as a statement of fact, though. And I sure as shit don't want to be on the road with them while the presumption is they're just peachy keen, jellybean.

The thing is though, when you compare alcohol-related deaths in people under 21 to marijuana-related deaths in people under 21 (I choose under 21 because for this group there's a constant of both substances being illegal for the user), theres really no comparison.
Alcohol is way, way more deadly.

No it isn't, the abuse of alcohol is.
If we followed your reasoning the logical thing would be to ban people under 21 from driving altogether.

actually alcohol has a level at which it is fatal. pot doesn't.
