Nope. marijuana has some legitimate medical uses, largely does not hurt people and is not addictive although one may become dependent upon it. Marijuana users are not usually dangerous to themselves or others.
I think marijuana use should be legalized.
Meth has no legitimate medical use, is known to cause personality change and brain damage and is addictive. It is connected to erratic and even sometimes violent personality
changes.
I think meth needs to be treated as a forbidden drug and users treated like addicts.
And for Jesus S. above, many substances, including tobacco and alcohol are "mind altering." So your argument, paltry as it is is all wet. And for former Deputy Sheriff, let's make oxygen illegal so you can stop breathing it okay? That's about the level of argument you put forth on this topic....but what can I expect from a cop?
Lawyer here....

Yes. They both are mind altering substances and illegal.
William E: "... largely does not hurt people and is not addictive although one may become dependent upon it."
--Marijuana is a gateway drug which often leads to the consumption of stronger drugs. So it does in fact hurt people. In my book, dependency and addiction of a substance is pretty much the same thing.
William E: "Marijuana users are not usually dangerous to themselves or others."
--Obviously you have never been forced to detain/arrest a person under the influence of marijuana. I'm not saying all potheads get violent, just the majority.
William E: "...many substances, including tobacco and alcohol are 'mind altering.'"
--Tobacco causes a slight sensation of relaxation for smokers but it does not impair judgement. Alcohol, when consumed in high quantities, is in fact dangerous to the user and those he is around. So you get half a point on that one.
For the record: I am a law enforcement officer in active service.

Never, Marijuana, have been proven scientificaly that, is was cancer safe for us. It may start some latent neurological, mental illness, but, it not cause it.
Crystal meth is one of the worth drug ever made, the addictive power of this substance, is unbelieveble, the short-long term sides effects are totally devastating.
I think pot is safe to smoke for some pathologic treatment, Glaucoma, Poly-arthritistm rhumatohid, i know it help too in some cases of anorexia to give hungry, but for all that ask MANY doctor's, because, i'm not.
I smoke pot, I think it's relatively safe FOR ME, but I would never take crystal, I think, like heroin, it's a drug made to destry peoples, controled, dependant...

They are lumped together, in a group called ILLEGAL. Also, both are harmful to the human body, both cost money better spent to support you and your family, and both help support some drug dealer that is too lazy to get a real job.

no, i don't. marijuana is a plant that grows, but crystal meth is a manufactured drug and in my opinion, much more dangerous.

Drugs are drugs, whether it's marijuana or meth;
Booze is booze, whether it's Coors Light or Capt. Morgan;
Cigarettes are cigarettes, whether they're Salems or Camels.
