Your last point makes no sense to me... If I make a point against cannabis, how on earth does that affect anything in relation to alcohol consumption and the associated health and social implications of it?...
I am not advocating people drink alcohol, all I am suggesting is people don't use cannabis.
That is not a double standard.

Except the health risks involved with Cannabis are widely known and they are less dangerous then cigerattes and alcohol?

In these two states growing your own cannabis is still illegal, you have to purchase it and chances are the sellers will have to adhere to guidelines and regulations involving the growing and cultivation as well as probably having a license or a permit to actually sell the product. In places where it's legal they aren't just letting anyone sell it.

You've defended alcohol by saying it's only dangerous when you abuse it but you aren't willing to extend the same train of thought to Cannabis although it's medically proven to be less harmful then Alcohol and you've tried to dream up various scenarios where it would be dangerous to partake in it when in fact if you replaced it with Alcohol it would make the situation more treacherous.
