Id rather have them doing none of those things, but that isn't possible, but why then just let them do them all? Many less people would die and succumb to addiction if alcohol and cigarettes were criminalised, but unfortunately they are so in built with our culture now that it's impossible to do that, the best we can do is offer advice, help and guidelines. To me is seems backwards to legalise weed when we should be encouraging people not to use any of these substances. True, no one has died directly from an overdose weed, it isn't fatal, but smoking it can still seriously damage your lungs and increase the risk of lung cancer, and it can indirectly cause deaths either as being used as a gateway drug, or by the abuse of the substance in dangerous scenario's such as driving.

Oh yeah smoke is obviously damaging but there's many other ways to consume weed in ways that invoke no smoke. Edibles, vapor, oils, and a couple way I can't think of. And I have to disagree with you saying we shouldn't do any of these substances. Everyone needs a vacation for reality at some point in their lives. A little 2 hour break with friends every couple weeks is fine in my eyes. Moderation is really the key to any substance.

Of course, and you're 100% entitled to have that opinion without anyone judging you. I suppose my belief is that people only feel that because it's a part of our society now, if we never had access to alcohol or weed from birth we would function fine with other ways to relax, but I completely understand and respect your choice. I just want people to consider slowing the rapid changes to allow more time for research, so if there are harmful effects in the long term people can be more effectively educated about the risks instead of the polarising love/hate propaganda most people use to inform themselves now, and if it is legalised that the government is in a better place to support weed users with information and guidelines, as well as better provisions for safe use.
