Would you say that being an alcohollic is worse than being a pothead?

Yes. Sure pot heads have low motivation, but pot is less harmful to the body, and drunks are a lot more dangerous to others. I've never seen a stoned kid get into a fist fight, beat his wife, or kill someone with his car.

Alcohol much worse. Never seen anyone lose control on pot.

Definately, alcohol kills brain cells. Weed just puts a thin layer of resin over them that deteriorates over time.

Yes, alcohol kills you, pot doesn't.

Disregarding the legal issues, I don't see a real difference.
Being addicted to any substance is detrimental to the addict and those around him/her.
Many times fatally.

I don't think that alcoholics or potheads are bad people, since they don't hurt anyone, if that's what you're saying.

But being an alcoholic is worse than being a pothead. Many people die every year from alcohol poisoning. Marijuana has never killed anyone in the 5000 years it has been used. You are more likely to get in a car accident while drunk than you are high. Alcohol is much more addictive than marijuana. Alcohol can cause some people to be violent, while marijuana makes people feel relaxed.

If you mean pot as in marijuana, no. Cigarettes, yes.

Both are bad

edit: though in moderation alcohol is better for you since certain red wines have been known to help the heart.

No. relying on anything but your own inner discipline to manage your mood is pretty lame.
