Drinking doesn't force others to consume the drink. Smoking is something that you're forcing those around you to partake in with you. It's antisocial.

- cryptoz 16y agoMarijuana and smoke are not tied together. Many people bake brownies. Some people smoke alone, so no others are affected. Vaporizers eliminate the smoke altogether. It's not antisocial. In fact, it's one of the most social activities humanity has ever come across.
- robryan 16y agoPolice use the word antisocial here to when referring to it. I think they are using it in a completely different context though to how we normally use to word though.
