What Substance Would Harm Someone the Most?
Question by ?: What substance would harm someone the most?
Between marijuana and alcohol, what would do the most long term damage? **PLEASE do not say both**

Why Is There So Much Misinformation About Marijuana?
Question by Nunya: Why is there so much misinformation about marijuana?
Why is it that so many people spout “facts” about the lethality, addictiveness, and effects of marijuana despite the availability of test results from respected members of the scientific and medical communities? Tests conducted at the behest of Presidents even? Why do people continue in this day and age not link to or cite their sources? Why do people allow themselves to be led into believing something without having done any actual research themselves?
What can we do to change it? Not just for marijuana but in any case where the facts are out there and yet popular opinion overrules them?
