Aware of Our Own Hypocrisy

Well there you have it. A majority of Americans have come to realize the obvious -- that alcohol is more dangerous that marijuana. Makes it sorta hard to understand why we outlaw marijuana and legalize (and loosely regulate) alcohol.

Fifty-one percent (51%) of American adults say alcohol is more dangerous than marijuana, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey. Just 19% disagree and say pot is worse. But 25% say both are equally dangerous. Just two percent (2%) say neither is dangerous.

Perhaps it's time to change the law.
