I know from personal experience that pot turns you into the biggest bum! And we need to be stimulating people to be smarter and brighter rather than stoned and dumber.

I have heard studies say that smoking one blunt of pot is equivelant to smoking one pack of cigarettes and one hit off of a bong is equal to smoking five packs. You have to consider when people smoke pot it isn't filtered and they hold the smoke in longer for a better high.

Annnnnddddd (on my soapbox now) pot is the biggest gateway drug. People act like pot is so innocent (and so it may seem) so when people start smoking pot and realize how fun it is they want to branch out and see how much "fun" the other drugs are.

I wouldn't want to compare cigarettes to pot really because cigarettes don't effect you the way pot does...
Of course you are going to get the occasional person who just sits on his ass all day smoking pot and eating chips, Propaganda wants you to believe everyone turns out like that, but most people just smoke it like someone drinks a glass of wine with dinner. and cigarettes are way worse, they say in a commercial that one joint has three times as many chemicals as one cigarette, now while thats probably true, notice it doesn't say HARMful chemicals, granted breathing in smoke is not good for you no matter how you look at it, it can be beneficial, it can be entertaining and it can be used as a means to relax. And they did a recent study on Marijuana being a gateway drug, its not, most of my friends smoke pot and do nothing else as far as illegal drugs. And one hit off a bong is like smoking five packs? Thats just ridiculous.....
