Well think of it this way. Like the guy in the video said, if we legalize mary jane, them we get rid of most of the drug dealers..


And another reason it's not legal is due to the scare tactics and misinformation instilled in the youth and others who are susceptible. It's hard to inform those who will blindly follow anything their authority tells them is true. Lack of understanding leads to fear, and fear leads to hate.

Flavio thinks it should be legalized for multiple reasons, but Flavio has a hangover and doesn't feel like typing all the reasons up.

We already have legal substances such as tobacco killing far more people; why not legalize a drug that's not as harmful?

Yes, it isn't as harmful; pot isn't nearly as addictive as cigs are, nor does it have the same amount of chemicals n' stuff in it as cigs do. If you believe that it is, you're probably just listening to government sources that want to make you believe that it is more harmful due to political reasons. Plenty of non-government studies conducted by private universities (Not public schools/public service announcements, which are usually the things propagating the myths about marijuana) and the like have demonstrated that pot isn't addictive. Reliable studies have indicated that pot has no long-term health effects if used responsibly; sources that indicate otherwise often base their reasoning around pseudo-science. Now, pot may make you lazy for a few hours, but you won't start to feel cravings like you would for other drugs. Unless, of course, it was due to that individual's psychology (Like some people have food cravings, for instance.), but that doesn't reflect the vast majority of people.

Does that mean that pot is harmless? No, but just about anything can be harmful if used too much.

I say legalize it; if it was legal, the amount of criminal drug cartels that profit off of the stuff would lessen (Why would one need shady, murderous, underground criminal organizations for their drugs when they can be purchased from legal businesses?) and the world would be an overall safer place.

I think that legalizing marijuana is actually giving these cartels the win. This has been always what they've wanted and they'll work at getting other illegal drugs into our system. It will just go down the line, heroine, speedball, etc, of legalized drugs.

For the sake of everyone, our country should do a better job, I know the economy is bad right now, at trying to counter these drug allowances in the US. They should use propaganda, because most people who use drugs do not know the health affects of drugs. They should find these drug cartels and clean out the drugs. For one, it would create jobs, and actually help stop a growing problem in our society.

People are going to do it whether it's legal or not.

And I, for one, would like to see the benefits of having the substance made legal.

It doesn't matter whether or not MJ is made legal, people who use it will use it, and people who won't, won't.

The only differences will be positive.

[Frozenwinters]

MJ leads to other things btw. Once people get high enough, they can't obtain the same high they got with MJ so they look to stronger and more dangerous drugs.

THIS IS WHERE THE GOVERNMENT SAYS HELL NAH

You're all dumb. >_>

[Popple]

The government legalized abortion to lower crime rates.

Why wouldn't they legalize Mary Jane?

And since when have people ever been reasonable ?

Seriously, this is opening up to an industry that basically paints "HEY KIDS ! FUN WITH CHEMICALS !" on its front door.

Marijuana is a modern day Pandora's Box.

No. Just... no.

[puppypaint]

Legalize it. It's pretty much just solid alcohol, so it really should just be that you get a DUI for... I don't know what to call it... Well, whatever way you decide to intake it into your system and driving.

It would also make less people want to do it or overdo it because once it's legal, people won't do it just because it's illegal.

[Zelnor]

Are the effects really completely researched ?

I don't know anything about marijuana, so I can't say too much...
