It grows out of the ground, and people have used it since the dawn of time.
guys come on! it should be legal! If it grows out of mother earth it can't harm us!! like shrooms.. right? and ummm tree bark! and stones!! oh wait we don't eat stones? so does that mean just because it comes out of the ground means we CAN'T eat it???
haha kidding aside. Here are the facts:
Legalization:
-will make a lot of people happy (predominantly a specific niche of teenagers)
-will make medical pain resolution easier
-cut down crime surrounding drug cartels. Granted you'll still see meth and the like but weed definitely is the most common
Keeping it Illegal:
-no 5-10 year "trash" period
-it may not be chemically addictive, but if you do something you like you'll naturally want to do it again
-it can create obsessive behavior
-it WILL cause kids to start at an even younger age
-it will result in wider use if legalized
-there are negative aspects such as brain damage
-while under its affects you have potential to make very bad decisions
let's be honest here, you can tell who the potheads in your school are. And that's indicative of what they do, marijuana. It's a lie to say it's not addicting. Is pokemon addicting? no. but we do play it all the time, because its fun. Why would the same not be true for weed?
problems will arise such as new legislation having a need to be passed like "no smoking while driving". Questions would arise like "where would it be ok to do?" in your house? outside target? Crime will go down yes but only crime surrounding drug cartels. And since most weed sales go unnoticed in our nations schools. There will be no noticeable drop in crime.
