The biggest enemy against good health? I read some crazy articles saying alcohol is worse than smoking when it comes to health and the number of people affected??? don't see how it can possibly be anywhere near as bad as regular smoking...

Alcohol... How many smoking and driving accidents are reported? How often is domestic violence caused by smoking too many cigarettes? How many children abused because of it? How many cases of date rape can be attributed to getting to messed up on cigarettes? I understand that cigarettes do have many harmful and fatal health consequences but so does alcohol.


Being a child of an violent alcoholic I can say that it effected me more than second hand smoke ever could have.

Here are a few facts from the U.S Dept. of Justice

About three million violent crimes (including rapes and sexual assaults; robberies; and aggravated and simple assaults) occur each year in which the victims perceive the offender to have been drinking at the time of the offense; about two-thirds of these crimes are characterized as simple assaults.

1.4 million incidents of alcohol-related violence are committed against strangers

Among violent crimes the offender is far more likely to have been drinking than under the influence of other drugs, with the exception of robberies where other drugs are as almost as likely to have been used as alcohol.

Nearly half a million incidents of violence between intimates involve offenders who have been drinking; in addition, 118,000 incidents of family violence (excluding spouses) involve alcohol, as do 744,000 incidents among acquaintances.


Can you say the same for smokers?

alchol is more widely socially accepted, more people feel free to do it ithink so maybe it affects more peeps

Alchohol damages your brain, liver, kidneys, and most importantly, wastes away your precious muscles. Also,think about this, over drinking alcohol in one night can kill you, have you ever heard of anyone dying from over smoking in one night?

I can pretty much agree to all of that, the alcohol-related abuses you mention were a big part of the article as i remember, i forgot to metion that originally

I think that smoking has a much more direct affect on people though that may result in more extreme adverse heath affects..

uhh...if you eat an orange for every beer some people drink it can eat your stomach lining and ruin your throat.

what the fuck do you think is going to happen when you take something in such ridiculous fucking amounts. sounds stupid and makes me look like a douche because this reasoning is not socially acceptable or common.

You blame alcohol, rather than the person? Look buddy, I can control my alcohol intake and I don't abuse people when I'm drunk. If someone can't do those things, they're at fault, not alcohol.

This.

Studies have shown that a drink a day is actually good for you in many ways.. Liver damage is from severe alcoholism.

Eat massive amounts of Ecstasy, the fat will "melt" off you.

Or, more seriously, if you must do a drug...vaporize HIGH QUALITY pot. All the benefits of legalized drugs without the severe addiction.

Low quality strains (brick weed) have led to the popular notion that pot makes you fat and lazy. Different strains produce different effects.

I drink regularly, and to excess once in a while. Never beat the shit out of my non-kids. Never beat the shit out of my non-girlfriend. never killed some stranger on the road. never raped some girl. never date raped some girl. In fact I'm pretty sure nobody in my family has ever done any of those things. And we're all drinkers.

Funny how some self control and good parenting goes a long way.

sorry your alcoholic father beat the shit out of you while your mother sat by and did nothing.

Can't blame a substance for lack of control. No one holds a gun to someones head and says, "your going to be a worthless alchy wife beater." It's a string of bad life choices that lead to that........fuckem......alcoholics and loosers make everyone else look good. Look at the blacks.
