Question by Anonymous Anonymous: Why is arguing for legalizing marijuana because it’s safer than alcohol “not logical”?
Why wouldn’t you prefer people use a safer recreational drug, than one that actually kills people?

Unlike alcohol:

You can’t overdose on marijuana.

You can’t get physically addicted to marijuana.

You can’t die from withdrawal symptoms (which are milder than those of caffeine).

You can’t black out, forgetting what happened last night.

You can’t get hungover from marijuana.

You won’t be more prone to aggressive behavior.

People say that I should only argue for making alcohol illegal since it’s so dangerous, but isn’t the natural extension of that argument to support legalizing safer alternatives?
I’m not talking about state laws, I’m just saying in general why should it be illegal in the U.S. at all.
