I have 2 friends who smoke a lot, morning til night smokers. It doesn't happen very often but when either one of them runs out of grass I am somewhere on their list of people to call to see if I know of where to get any. It's pretty pathetic to hear them talk about how they need to find a bag. Doesn't matter how good, kind buds, mexican brick, etc. If that is not addiction, I don't know what is.
more people die in fatal car accidents due to cell phones than weed. of course there are going to be some incidents with any kind of "mind altering" substance but compared to the legal, socially acceptable ones, its nothing.

as for addiction, like i said before its a mental addiction. if you are an alcoholic, you can die if you stop drinking cold turkey. if your a heroin user, you're going to get the sickness if you stop. with weed, you might be irritable but that's about it. if alcohol was illegal or even chocolate bars, those who use alcohol or chocolate bars every day will probably have a bit of a fit if they run out and can't get more. it has little to do with the substance and more to do with the habit/ritual.
