Marijuana.

You don't think there are legal alternatives to help these conditions?



Last time I checked xbox wasn't an illicit drug, thats why you hear no stir.

Yeah It is pain relief, But there are legal alternatives, you don't need to suck a bong.

Yet If you were to survey 100's of business owners, I guarentee you less then 1% of them would smoke on a daily, even weekly basis, although I have no proof, which you are correct.

I believe there was a vote in the USA in a state where ALOT of people use this drug, it was voted against, If I have no valid argument, just like the government, and the majority of the public, they are just voting against it just to piss stoners off, Yeah ok..

Once again if I didn't have a valid argument, It would be legal,

Xbox is addicting, nonetheless.. and I'm sure you could scrounge around and find a harmful affect.

As for legal alternatives; what do you suggest, Tylenol? Prescription pills? Both of which have plenty of overdose deaths every single year? Oh, ok.

As for the survey point, you have NO basis for that comment. Doesn't even belong in the argument.

And for your last point, that's a fallacy.

@thattankkid, do you even know why it was made illegal in the first place?

How is that a fallacy? I'm sure if the majority of the public would want this substance available, I'm sure over time it would happen.

As I have said before, Why does this need to be legal? By leaving the law as it is, you still smoke it, I still smoke it, cancer patients still smoke it...? Why is there a problem?

 

[Deathawaitss]

I am Straight Edge, but I definitely have no problem at all with pot.

But the same with alcohol, have an age where you can smoke it legally.

Because people don't drink before the age of 21.


But I am against-pot even though all of my best friends do it.


All I can think of is episode 420 of Family Guy whenever anyone mentions legalizing pot.

Oh and the fact that most of the stoners I know are retards who wouldn't even pass high school let along excel in the real world, without people to mooch off of.

Appeal to popularity Fallacy.

Germany was for Hitler eradicating the Jews, therefore it is right.

Most humans will tend to conform with the majority, this happens all the time. It is human nature to be a follower.

Yet If you were to survey 100's of business owners, I guarantee you that 100% of them are leaders in their own right.

Germany was a minority of the world who belived that was the correct thing to do. The rest of the world (with a certain few excluded) knew it was wrong.

Same with marijuana the smokers of it (minority) believe it should be legalized, just because you smoke it and believe its good for you doesn't mean it should be legalized...

So I don't believe what i said was a fallacy.

I still pose the question, why does it need to be legalized? everyone who wants to smoke it has access to it.

 

[Veni]

Haha I'll stand up for marijuana any day, it's amazing how many uses come out of it.

It was a fallacy, if you have any intellect then you would realize it.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argumentum_ad_populum Read if you can.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the purpose of making something illegal it to prevent people from committing that act.

The law has blatantly failed in making people stop smoking marajuana, you just said that, so whats the point in continuing to make it illegal?

Just because you make something illegal, doesn't mean you stop it from happening. Look at the Organ donation situation right now. It's a disgrace.
This is inevitably what happens if you make something illegal, you drive it into the black market, and ultimately.

Tbh, you don't have any good arguments against legalization. You just keep saying 'why legalize it'.

 

[FacelessVoid]

I have heard its less harmful than cigs.

 

[Devilsfan]

I have heard its less harmful than cigs.

It is. And less harmful then Alcohol too. And less harmful then coffee. Now guess out of those 4 which 1 is illegal?

Just because you have access to it doesn't mean your withheld from being arrested and prosecuted for it. It's absolutely idiotic not to legalize something and continue to prosecute people because they have access to it.

How do you feel about this plant?

- Have you been brainwashed by your parents and the media about it?
- Do you accept it 100%?
- Do you support the legalization?

I, myself, support the legalization. I see nothing wrong with it, 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.

It's a plant, not a drug.

Just because it is a plant does not rule it off ass not a drug. Almost all drugs come from some type or plant, mineral, or to be very broad some resource.

I can't go to a crystal meth mine with my pickaxe and walk out with a cart and a half full. Also a decrease in alcoholic deaths per year would only be combated by an increase of marijuana related deaths.

I smoke weed and i do not want it legalized.

 

[angus07]

Just saying It makes you alot more lethargic, And it does impact you mentally, I don't need statistics to tell me that, Look at every dealer you get on from they are complete deadshits, Could you imagine half a community like that?

LOL.

the reason they are deadshits is not caused from the weed. give me a break with that B.S. They are deadshits because they are deadshits. They deal illegal goods because they are deadshits, they arent deadshits because they sell illegal goods.

as i always say: weed doesnt make the person, the person makes the weed (reputation-wise)

 

[Korasi]

I do accept the use of marijuana AS LONG as it is for medical purposes, and in my opinion it should be sold as a MEDICINE.

 

[noob master]

weed is god...makes you feel great and it's good for you.

 

[ploxz]

i believe marijuana isent a bad thing.

its a plant that aboriginals used to use for medical purposes and, in some places today, are also used for medical purposes.

Marijuana contains no chemicals ( contrary to cigarettes and alcohol) and is responsible for a whopping 0 deaths a year.

Legalize it, tax it, the government will make money. and after all isent that all the government cares about?

 

[123allan123]

Never tried weed before.
But I always wanted to try it.
So within a few weeks I will give it a shot.
And report it here.

 

[Nuhtai]

Brain washed ow yea lol. By my parrents, media, school. I smoke it sometimes but not often, i prefer drinking.. dunno why. About the legalization: I dont know. In one hand it would be good. I m sure crime rate would decrease and stuff. But in the other hand i slightly belive that it kills ur brain cells and makes u stupid. Actually i dont think so, i m afraid that it is so. Cause i have seen people who smoke weed almost every day and they behave like morons. I have nothing against weed. Its just like alcohol - dont consume it too much or it will start consuming u.

 

[z Revs]

Marijuana, like any thing that makes you feel good and is fun to do, has potential to be bad, but the drug itself is harmless.
