I think this discussion is entirely open for debate.
While social acceptability plays a big part, I think the regulations of the local authorities plays an equally big part.
I think of weed as being completely separate from other "drugs" because of its less physically addictive quantites and the fact that it's not as mind altering.
caffienne is considered as a drug because it's highly addictive, and alters your mood, and yet, nobody seems to think so....
conversely, alchohol is more dangerous than marijuana has ever been and yet people still think marijuana is so bad.
