Alcohol Vs. Marijuana


           Ever seen a person high? Well, how about someone that was drunk? Ever took the time and thought whether or not alcohol is more dangerous than marijuana? People smoke and drink to have fun with their friends at parties and other social outings but they never think of the consequences one or even both of them may cause. Using visual descriptions, this image shows that drinking alcohol is more dangerous than smoking marijuana.

            In this picture, it shows a marijuana plant, people smoking it, people eating because of the munchies that smoking marijuana causes, and then the people that were smoking feeling loopy because of the high they are under. It also shows a bottle of alcohol, people drinking it, people getting into a car after drinking, and then the people that were drinking in a car accident because of how drunk the alcohol made them. The words on the picture state “Can you guess which one is legal?”. Now, we all know which one is legal and which one should be legal. Alcohol is the most dangerous which means that alcohol should be illegal and Marijuana should be legal because there aren’t nearly as many deaths caused by marijuana as caused by alcohol.

            I’ve always wondered why smoking marijuana was illegal and drinking alcohol was not. Driving while under the influence of alcohol is much more dangerous than driving while under the influence of marijuana. I’m not saying that people should drive while under the influence of any drug or alcohol but, people seem to drive while under the influence of alcohol more often just because it is legal.
