Scotch Guy is most definitely right.
Marijuana is probably safer than alcohol. Mostly because I've never seen a person that was high on marijuana angry. Drunk people on the other hand get violent sometimes. Also most people that get high do so at their own homes. Meaning, they don't need to drive home to pass out like drunk people do. Plus a marijuana high doesn't really last that long anyway. So, if you're at a party and you smoke then you can wait it out so you can drive home.
I don't think that you should be able to walk into the super-market smoking a joint, but, then again, you can't walk into a store drinking a beer either. Therefore you should probably be allowed to smoke wherever you can drink (Marijuana bars maybe?) or in other designated places. I don't see how it can be any more dangerous than drinking.
Also, like ScotchGuy said, it could definately profit your government. I know I would probably smoke, on occassion, if I could pick it up from Wal-Mart. I would much rather do that than walk down the street and pick it up from some junkie that cut half of it with parsley. And now somebody is gonna say something stupid like, "SEE! That means that everyone will try it and get addicted!" That is just simply untrue. Most people have already tried it anyway. And the people that haven't most likely have strong beliefs against it. Beliefs that they are, most likely, not willing to go against just because the government says they can. It's just not for everyone. Just like alcohol and cigarettes aren't for everyone.
