Alcohol vs Cannabis. ?

Published October 29, 2012

Question by rer348: Alcohol vs Cannabis. ?
I recently asked this ? in surveys. Let’s try again in “Law/Police. I worked as a medic for 25 years…big city. I have never , and do not know of any Paramedic who has transported a “pot” patient who actually required treatment. To the best of my medical knowledge, there exists no possible “Overdose”. I would estimate that (because of the zones I worked in) nearly 30 to 40% of all runs I ever did were alcohol related. Police! My friends…my co-workers of so many years. You guys know the truth. I am not supporting the smoking of marijuana, strictly said, the less smoke in one’s lungs, the better. Isn’t all the effort and money spent less important than dealing with the really dangerous substances out there. Cops…a last ? Who are you likely to tangle with? A s-faced drunk or a pot smoker?
