In my opinion Alcohol is way more dangerous than Cannabis.

In a known fact that cannabis can be used no only for recreational purpose, but also to relieve the symptoms of neurodegenerative diseases, like SLA or Parkinson's disease.

Also, one of the effects of Alcohol is to increase susceptibility of users, that can easly cause rage and aggressive behaviors, Cannabis instead, has the known effect of calming people, making them more peaceful.

Another important fact is that alcohol inhibits the perception of danger, causing people not only to be dangerous when they drive, but also to not understan when they are too drunk to do it. Cannabis must be used in a very excessive amount to inhibits that mutch the senses to make you think that is safe driving even if you're high.

In some states, the use of cannabis is also prescribed to people with severe cases of insomnia, helping them to sleep.

Alcohol abused frequently often causes cirrhosis of the liver, that bring very fast to death, instead, there are various ways to use cannabis that have reduced harmful effects on the lungs.

In my opinion, alcohol is more dangerous than drugs.

Cannabis produces fewer side effects, and it is not only used by young people but also as a medicine.

The use of this substance has never caused deaths unlike alcohol.

Alcohol, on the other hand, has many side effects, such as loss of balance, motor difficulties, and because of this, many people even get drunk, causing many deaths.

The reasons why teens use drugs are many and varied. Some teens use drugs to try to distract themselves from the daily life that oppresses them. Other young people use drugs to feel "strong" emotions and to be accepted by the peer group. It is very very important to start awareness campaigns to make children aware of the risks they run by abusing drugs. The use of drugs, in addition to being a social problem, is also a legal problem, as if a person is found with drugs, he can incur civil and criminal penalties

Drugs are perhaps one of the most serious and dramatic problems that contemporary society knows. We know about the use of drugs since ancient times, but we also know that the use of drugs was limited to a very small circle of people, and affected precise and delimited geographical areas. Today, however, drugs can be found in every country and are expanding at an impressive rate, reaching incredible numbers, especially with regard to the number of addicts. Gone is the era in which there were few people who dedicated themselves to drugs. By now the phenomenon does nothing but extend, and today in Italy, too, it is said that drugs are widespread even in some middle schools. To think of a child of eleven to twelve years old smoking a cigarette or, even worse, getting an injection of a narcotic substance, makes me shudder, yet it is the dramatic reality. The drug has been called an octopus, for the simple fact that it begins by squeezing gently, almost pleasantly, but ends by inexorably crushing and suffocating its victim, who is then unable to free himself. To those who have started to take drugs and do it habitually, small doses of soft drugs are no longer enough, but they must resort to the so-called heavy drugs from which it is then very difficult to voluntarily leave. It's sad to see young people reduced to wretched beings because of drugs; those who once joked, laughed, played, had fun carefree and began to enter the business, so "just to try" are now unable to move, act and even think if they do not have the help of drugs to support them. Unfortunately, in spite of the various advertising campaigns against drugs, people are not very informed. We all need to become more responsible in front of the drug drama, not only with words, but with deeds. In my opinion, talking is of little use: we need the work and cooperation of all, especially of us young people, in order to still be able to hope to achieve, despite everything, a healthy and balanced future society, where the spectre of drugs is just a bad dream.

In my opinion, if you do not exaggerate either of the two is dangerous, in fact marijuana is considered therapeutic and alcohol can prevent cardiovascular diseases. It appears alcohol is more dangerous because it is more accessible to everyone than marijuana, which is illegal, and that is also why so many people have died as a result of overdose of alcohol, while in the case of marijuana is not.

I think alcohol is more dangerous than marijuana, in fact the inabity to metabolize alcohol as quickly as it is consumed can lead to a buildup of alcohol in the brain that shuts down areas necessary for survival, such as those involved with heartbeat and respiration; while marijuana affects the cardiovascular system, increasing heart rate and blood pressure, but a person can't fatally overdose on pot like they can with alcohol.

I think alcohol and marijuana are both dangerous because they are addictive.  Unlike Marijuana , alcohol is considered less dangerous, it’ s legal and is used much more. In my opinion, the effects that they cause in the person are equally dangerous and this should be considered.  I’m not against drugs and I think that in some cases, for example  for treating serious diseases they are really useful, obviously they should not be abused and used in times of need and not to have fun as young people often do.

This video explains the characteristic of marijuana and alcohol in social life and at the psychological level. The people who take marijuana become nice, can relate more with people, they stay calm and relaxed. After taking marijuana the person remembers what he did the night before, he can do simple activites like using the phone. The people who use alcohol become aggressive, they can start a fight easily. They can do stupid things and put their lives at risk. After drinking the person doesn’t remember anything, he/she can’t do even simple activities such as typing on the phone or talking. Marijuana is better than alcohol but it’s not great. None is better than the other. It is important to take both responsibly and in small quantities.

I don't agree. I think alcohol is more dangerous and harmful than Marijuana.
Marijuana can also be used as a prescription medicine while alcohol once you are addicted is hard to get out off.
In addition, drunk people can cause traffic accidents, where many people can die or be seriously injured.

In this picture there is the percentage of people who drink alcohol but don't use marujana and the people that use marujana but don't drink alcohol. In my opinion people for fun use this substance but they don't know the consequences for their body and your brain  and  substance that are inside them too. They think that they are powerful and strong but they forget that if they overdo it too much they can feel bad or even die.

A more than 16-year study of more than 65,000 Americans published in the American Journal of Public Health found that healthy marijuana users are no more likely to die early than healthy men and women who don't use marijuana.

I belive that alcohol is more dangerous than marijuana. Both are dangerous and if a person use these substances without consciousness can be unsafe for his/her healthy. Actually in the world there are no deaths caused by the use of marijuana, while alcohol provokes 3 milion deaths in the world every year. In addition alcohol abuse causes inhibition, blurred vision, nausea and vomiting, and headache while marijuana doesn't make you phisically sick.

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion alcohol is also more dangerous than marijuana because it has caused more deaths than nearly 1 in every 20 people in the world.

Cannabis has never caused anyone's death and it is a soft drug.

Moreover, alcohol if drunk in large quantities makes you lose more control of the situation.

However, there are still substances that damage the body, especially if you abuse of them.

Personally I don't think that alcohol Can be so dangerous if a person learns to drink consciously since the danger of alcohol lies in exaggeration and in our not knowing how to stop when our body asks us to.

Many countries have legalized marjiuna, such as the United States, but Italy still hasn't.  According to the bill, adults over 18 will be able to hold a moderate amount of cannabis for 'recreational' use, that is, to smoke it: 15 grams at home, 5 grams outside the home.  Absolute prohibition instead for minors.  Marijuana can be grown at home (up to a maximum of 5 plants), but the crop cannot be sold.
In my opinion, the legalization of marijuana can be done in an intelligent way to prevent children from coming into contact with crime to find the substances.  Obviously I am only talking about marjiuana and not other illegal substances which I am completely against.
As for the difference between the intake of alcoholic substances and the use of connabis and what they can cause, I think that alcohol is much worse, as scientists say, it burns the liver and leads to serious diseases.

I think that marijuana causes a decrease in the size of the brain in the areas associated with memory and concentration, and perhaps this explains the occurrence of weakness in their general functions manifested in poor memory and attention loss, as well as causing a mood disorder and the transition between episodes of calm to bth of depression and nervousness, and lead to problems In the respiratory system and frequent colds, pneumonia, coughing. Marijuana contains many benefits that can be obtained, but when used only under medical supervision and includes treating depression, pain relief, insomnia and anxiety disorder.

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion, alcohol is more dangerous than marijuana; in fact, some studies have shown that alcohol intake negatively affects memory, leads to violence and it is dangerous if taken before driving.

It can also lead to anxiety disorders, depression, it can slow heart rate and finally can cause cancer.

Certain studies found that 30722 Americans died from alcohol in 2014; unlike marijuana where no deaths have been reported.

Moreover, the latter seems to be less addictive than alcohol.

# data[].attributes.body
marijuana is more dangerous than alcohol becauase marijuana can provoke addiction and a small amount is enough to alter the senses. it can facilitate the appearance of psychiatric conditions and has a lasting effect on the brain functions of young people in psychophysical development. I don't love and use both because they are really dangerous for your life but it's a personal choise. Marijuna provokes the symptoms in less time. so if you can try this  pay close attention because it could become an addiction.

A new report finds that people smoking skunk are at risk of psychosis, so is cannabis more dangerous than alcohol?

The study by King's College London found that smoking "skunk-like" cannabis triples the risk of psychosis. The drug was linked to 24 per cent of new psychosis cases, according to the research.

The researchers say there is an "urgent need" to inform young people about the risks of strong cannabis. But what about alcohol?

Sir Robin Murray, professor of psychiatric research at King's College London, told Channel 4 News: "Most people who drink alcohol do it moderately and enjoy it. Most people who smoke cannabis do it moderately and enjoy it.

"But if you drink a bottle of vodka each day it won't be good for your health, the same with a large amount of cannabis."

Physical damage

Professor Murray said that in terms of physical damage, alcohol was more dangerous.

"In absolute terms, far more people die of alcohol than cannabis. It's very difficult to kill yourself from cannabis. It may make you do some crazy things, but you're not going to get kidney or liver disease from cannabis.

"In terms of the psychological problems it's different. If you drink heavily you'll get dementia eventually. But with cannabis, there's still a dispute."

Professor Murray said there were relatively few studies on the psychological effects of cannabis, and there was "still an argument" about whether the cognitive impairment of a cannabis user returns to normal after heavy use.

Psychological damage

"In terms of hallucinations that is much more common with cannabis. If you're lucky you'll recover. But if you smoke cannabis for many years you may develop schizophrenia."

Comparing the damage to non-users and society is difficult, said Professor Murray, mainly because one drug is legal and the other is not.

"At present, alcohol does much more damage than cannabis. But of course a huge proportion of the male population is drinking every day - sometimes heavily. Nothing like the same proportion are smoking cannabis every day."

In 2010, a study published in the Lancet on behalf of the independent scientific committee on drugs found that heroin, crack cocaine and methamphetamine (crystal meth) were the most harmful drugs to individuals.

The most harmful drugs to those in contact with users were alcohol, crack cocaine and heroin.
Above: Drugs ordered by their overall harm scores, according to research by the independent scientific committee on drugs
The most harmful drug overall was found to be alcohol, followed by heroin and crack cocaine. Cannabis came eighth on the list.

The report was co-authored by Professor David Nutt, who was sacked as the government's chief drugs adviser in 2009.

The findings of the study contradicted the government's drugs classification system. The report's authors claimed that their data showed that "the present UK drug classification system is not simply based on considerations of harm".

Professor Murray pointed out that it is hard to find people who smoke cannabis who do not drink alcohol - and that makes it hard to study the effects of both drugs.

"The problem is that people who drink a lot are more likely to smoke as well - the two tend to go hand in hand. If we were able to cope with alcohol then it would be fine to legalise cannabis - but we can't [cope with alcohol]."

I agree with Vittoria Gallo's comment.  teen agers usually start to use illegal substances when they attend high school.  The first is cannabis, which has been trying to legalize for some time.  Many young people use it because it is forbidden and they are fascinated.  some start out thinking "I only do it once" and then maybe develop an addiction.  I agree with the use of cannabis as a therapy to improve the situation of some diseases but not as a drug.

I personally think that the use of substances such as marijuana are considered illegally and as source of deviant behavior, while alcohol is sold legally and it is more accepted in society.
Both are dangerous and addictive; alcohol, if taken in large quantities, can be harmful to the person's
physical health, causing vomiting, headaches, malaise, and in the most severe cases, ethyl coma. Marijuana use can lead to dizziness, affecting the brain or lead to overdose.
I also think that society should be made more aware of the use of alcohol, especially among young people who use it as an outlet or as a fun valve at parties. Instead, there are many campaigns against drug use, thinking it is more dangerous.
If a person claims that he has a drink or two he is not seen badly, while if a person claims to use drugs once or twice then he is seen badly and is turned away.

People usually believe that marijuana is more noxious than alcohol, but I believe that both are equally dangerous for themselves and for others.

Unfortunately many people do drugs or various drug cocktails and if you add alcohol to them as well, taking all these substances together this could cause overdose and subsequently death.

It often happens to hear that in show business certain actors, singers are found dead and then doing an autopsy of their bodies it turns out that he/she had used a mix of drugs and alcohol.

I am not in favour of drugs in general, but sometimes have a drink without exaggerating too much is not so bad.

I think it is your choice to want to harm yourself, but you know that there will be serious consequences of the actions you have done, maybe some do it for fun, others because they are not happy with the life they are leading, but this is not the way to cure themselves , the situation will only worsen and life is only one and should not be wasted.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that both (marijuana and alcohol) are dangerous, both are addictive. Alcohol is more acceptable in society, it is in fact used during parties or to celebrate certain moments. The use of certain substances such as cannabis or marijuana is seen as something bad, not socially acceptable. The continuous use of both substances creates a strong addiction which is often difficult to get out from or can lead to death. Through some researches, however, I came to this conclusion that drinks containing alcohol cause greater psychophysical damages than cannabis and its derivatives and have greater potential for addiction (I would never have said that!). This is not to say that cannabinoids are less dangerous than alcohol, as both can negatively affect the mind and body of human people. Alcohol has no beneficial consequences on the human body, but only generates damage; on the contrary, cannabinoids could be of help in some disease conditions, if used under medical supervision. I would also like to add that, in my opinion, campaigns and slogans against drugs, are much more present than those against alcohol.

Drugs and teen

The use of drugs among teens is increasingly common. There are several drugs, some are "soft" drugs, others are "hard" drugs. "Soft" drugs cause a state of relaxation in the body, although in the long run their intake can cause damage to health. Marijuana, opium and morphine are part of the soft drugs. Some of these substances (such as marijuana and morphine) are used therapeutically to relieve the pain of certain diseases. "Hard" drugs, unlike "soft" drugs, cause a state of excitement or ecstasy that leads the people who use them to perform dangerous acts for themselves and for others. Some examples of hard drugs are ecstasy, 🤬 and LSD.

I am in favor of the use of soft drugs, as long as they are used therapeutically to relieve pain; in my opinion, only some soft drugs should be legalized and their use should be regulated by the state. The legalization of these drugs would make it possible to limit the sale by criminals. I am against the use of hard drugs, as they cause serious damages to the physical and mental health of the people who use them. For this reason, I believe that the use of these substances should be banned and the drug dealing punished with very severe penalties.

People usually think marijuana is dangerous because it is a drug and drug = danger = death.
The alcohol instead is not associated with danger, and in fact sometimes it is used as a remedy. For example, it is said that a glass of red wine a day reduces the risk of certain diseases, promotes digestion, improve blood circulation and heart health, extends life expectancy, reduces stress. But it's just a glass, not a bottle. And it's wine, not vodka.
Anyone can easily access alcohol and people abuse it so much that thousands of people are addicted to it or die from overdose.
As there are various alcoholic strengths there are also various types of drugs, some stronger and more dangerous others less and, although it may seem strange, no one died from a marijuana overdose.
