Marijuana.

[MegaMatt]

It's a gun, not a weapon.
Doesn't mean guns don't kill people.

Marajuana should be legalized, just because you make something illegal, doesn't mean you stop people from abusing it.
Look at prostitution, or any other drug.
If they were legalized, and given to people in more reasonable quantities, as opposed to people brewing them up throwing there own piss puke and crap in an Ecstasy tablet then selling it and getting people exceptionally sick; I think that would be better.

Alcohol or drugs is bad for you, however making it illegal is NOT the solution.

I think his point is that Marijuana is something that can be grown completely naturally. Although obviously growers use some chemicals to aid in the process, but just like you said, you never know what goes into man made drugs. There is a difference and I think that weed shouldn't be labeled as any more of a drug than coffee (which technically speaking is a drug.. but you know what I'm getting at)

And for the record I'm not against use of man made drugs, I'm just making a point.

Ecstacy is actually less dangerous then riding a horse (could find the source if you want? )

Please Do i wouldn't mind reading that!

OT:

It just feels to me that the people on this thread saying no aren't providing valid arguments. I don't know..

From what I've read there have been.

 

[iMattJ]

I might need to go back and re-read then. What's the most valid argument you've seen against it?

Also is a documentary about how taking pills is less dangerous then drinking alcohol and smoking tabacco

@Matt, I saw a chart that compared the different factors of many drugs (cocaine, heroine, weed, caffeine, etc.) and marijuana had the lowest of all factors for every drug, such as dependence, addiction, and some others. And it had the second lowest for intoxication, besides caffeine. I'll have to find the chart.

Found it! Sorry about the double post.

okay guy.. i bet you didnt know that weed being illegal is WAY more dangerous then it being legal.

even though it is illegal it BARELY stops people from smoking it.

i remember going up to the mountains where i live for magic mushrooms. at the most remote place on the mountain i saw a shack.. when i looked inside it i coulda SWORN seeing shadowy figures of a like 10 marijauna plants... then i started hearing guard dogs and thought i better get the fuck out of here FAST

i cleared the whole mountain in less then 3 minutes scared for me life.... the whole time i heard those dogs barking, i coulda swore when i was running i heard people whispering.

i can GARENTEE if i stayed there i most likely woulda been shot n killed... if i died up in those mountains it would have been so easy to discard my body.. nobody would have ever known or been able to find me.

this is why weed being illegal is so dangerous... when people stumble upon growin operations shit gets real

1: 10 MJ plants is nothing, why would anyone buy guard dogs for that? It's for percy not for distribution.
2: MJ Does not grow well outside during the shroom season.
2: It's physically impossible to clear any mountain in 3 minutes.
3: If you heard people whispering on a mountain whilst you where running away than whatever your taking is alot worse than MJ.
4: Everything you posted is bullshit... Sorry but none of that's true unless you ate all the shrooms you picked before imagining this story.

So you think there won't be people growing it once it's legalized?

There will be some retards who will still try to grow it and sell it for cheaper than you can buy it at the store from, just like they do now, except they aren't trying to beat other grower's prices, but the stores.

 

[Wub to craft]

Never smoked it, but I wouldn't care if it was legalised or not, the only thing I have against it is this:

All of my friends, or people that smoke it don't get very good marks in class, skip often, and are "dirty," or "skids". It really does affect people, (some more then others) in how they act toward others, and how they don't really care about school as much as they once did. I have multiple friends that smoke it everyday at lunch, and all their marks have went down since.

okay faggot.. first off

i dont mean i literally cleared the mountain in 3 minutes.. i LIVE on this mountain. about 5 minute frm where i live there are a buncha cows n cow patties.

i did NOT eat any shrooms while picking them.. that is just dumb. about 1 week prior to this incident i did eat shrooms while i was hunting. i almost died of exaustion... if it wasnt for a tiny bit of rain and me opening my mouth for little rain droplets i probaly woulda died.

when i said i cleared the mountain in 3 minutes i meant i went from the marijauna growing place to the entrance of the cow place.

when i said i saw 10 plants it probaly wasnt there only stash.. they are most likely growing mariajuan all over that place.. that was just one of there stashs.. also just because i thought i saw 10 plants doesnt mean it was only 10 plants.. it coulda been 20 fucking plants... i didnt wanna waste any time counting i just wanted to get the fuck out of there. i cactually agree with you why would anyone buy a guard dog for 10 mj plants? use your own reasoning to fucking picture what i was trying to say.

i guess i forgot to mention that i live in hawaii where marijauna grows YEAR fuckin round and never snows.

that wasnt the moral of the story... im just saying that if you stumble into the wrong place at the wrong time, shit gets real.

also.. once marijauna is legalized TONS OF PEOPLE will start growing it...

Okay cool no need to make up stories just to prove your opinion, and your calling me a fucking moron for voicing my opinion. You are a fucking champion.

 

[kill dank]

I like smoking weed. I don't care if it's legal cuz I get it anyway.

Why do you have a problem with what other people do? if they wanna smoke, let them. don't force your opinion on people..

Exactly how I feel, anyone can pull all the statistics they want, But i know for a fact that it does impact people mentally, I can see this just by the people who use it around my area.

I<3Weed.

Tbh, i think they should legalize marijuana. The effects of it are of less than alcohol and even is better for you than alcohol. I've smoked plenty of times and i have no problem keeping up with my grades, although, i do find myself staring at things for periods of time. . + It WOULD boost the economy by loads, if they(government) sold it, and maybe illegalized the distribution of marijuana on the street. + Is marijuana not a natural plant? Tobacco products are also natural plants but companies add hundreds of chemicals to make these products, and as people have said, is sold daily in communities everywhere. Honestly, if the government is allowing 700,000 people to die each year to lung cancer(mainly due to smoking tobacco products), why not legalize marijuana. I'm almost positive Cigerettes is the one of the leading causes in Preventable deaths in the United States. And to die from marijuana, you would need a hefty wallet to pay for enough of it.

So just because its not as bad as alcohol we should legalize it?

You're just making a broad generalization. Just because some people that use it are skeezers doesn't mean that using it turns you into a skeezer.

So just because its not as bad as alcohol we should legalize it?

No, because the positives far outweigh the negatives, that's why.

Not exactly. I am implying that if people over the age of 21 have a choice of drinking, people of a certain age should beable to smoke marijuana.

What positives exactly?

 

[iMattJ]

What positives exactly?

You must have missed the first post in the thread.

... and I feel that it would boost the economy. It would hopefully lessen the abuse and addiction of nicotine and alcohol, therefore reducing the abundance of alcohol related deaths every year. The money spent on the upkeep of the age-old marijuana laws would be saved.
