Make Marijuana Legal?

Well that's exactly the problem, people who do it habitually, people who are addicted. Personally I think there's nothing more sad than someone getting high alone. However, if you're with youre friends, if you're at a party or if you're just really bored, marijuanna is a great recreational tool. it is dangerous but only if you abuse it. If you know the risks, and act responsibly about your plant you'll be fine. Unfortunately there wil always be a minority of people who are incapable of resonable use, and they will procede to give everyone else a bad name. It's always the unfavorable minority that gets the most attention from the public. The successes are almost never pointed out, but failures attract everybodys attention. If a plane crashes tons of restrictions are placed on flying but the fact remains that flying is one of the safest methods of transportation around.

like steroids
...and guns

the law was made to keep the weak-willed and the desperate from doing anything bad

You misunderstood me. I am disgusted by anyone who uses drugs AT ALL, and by anyone who smokes or drinks habitually. Especially underage. I should hope that our future isn't as bleak as some of the morons I see everyday are determined to make it.

just be responsible and everything will work out... :D

I hate it when people try to justify legalizing pot by saying that the government could profit from it and tax it. Because that's exactly what the government needs- more money. It cannot even use what we give it responsibly. Why should we give it more?
It should be legalized because it's a weed- just like a dandelion (and is as harmful as one). Just because it exists doesn't mean the government has the right to stick their greedy hands into it.

when you're using it you can't tell yourself that you'd be responsible and everything will be okay, thats totally absurd to me :x

for example, when you're high and you did something bad and the next day you realize waking up behind the slammers and you ask the police what did you do and after the police told you what you did, i bet the only thing you can say is "i don't know man, i was high" with your so-fucked face look by substance(s)...and people, you can't call that responsibility

and about 'doing something bad' part i'll leave the imagination to you :roll:

so i'm against it cause aside it can destroy yourself(i don't care about this cause its your right to do what you want to do with yourself) it also can potentially harm others(innocent people included :P) thats why i'm totally against it!

"Eshi.. Just Pointing Out.. That On Any Case There Ish Non Win To Any Situation That Considers A General Balance Otherthan The Means Of One's Choice Of Doing Things Themselves.. Le Sighs"

Well part of the point of this decision is to give people the ability to choose. I personally think that it should be a decision.

Just because it might have harmful consequences does not mean it must be illegal. People understand its potential to be helpful and also the side affects associated with marijuana use.

-also- nobody hurts other people when they get high. The last thing anyone wants to do is get into a fist fight when they are stoned.

Personally I feel that making pot legal would have more negative effects than positive ones ...

Firstly, legalizing it would just make it more convinient for the potheads to get hold of it ... and when something becomes mainstream ... it becomes easier for you to get it at a younger age ...

And as for the tax element of it ... seriously, there is no need for any greater influx of money - it would just go to the men and women fighting in the middle east ... and we don't need that mess to continue to go on ...

If the Gov. was to legalise it though ... it would be like Abortions ... It wouldn't be the fact that they accept pot ... its more the fact that they want to make it safe(r) for the mass public and showing that they aknowledge its presence within society ...

The only positive would be the Gov. would be able to pull the hold out of the dealers and give it to more responsible places, making it only slightly safer in that aspect...

Plus as a mainstream Drug ... It wouldn't be as popular as those still illegal ... and therefore users (may) decrease from that aspect of it ...

But all in all the entire premise of the fact is laughable at best ... and is mostly being pushed by those who can't see the issue with clear minds ...

I voted Hell Yes. Not only because of the way it makes you feel, but it has very good medicinal uses for people with cancer and other terminal diseases.

Some people who choose to smoke Marijuana haven't got the brain power to use it in moderation. This is important, because most people will just fuck themselves and others over.

Overall, the law was made with both halves of the politicians brains firing. Don't do it if you know what's good for you. And if you do, do it where you have no access to anything dangerous. Like, go live on a wet farm. So you can't set shit on fire and you can't hurt anyone but yourself. Don't have access to a farm? Then don't smoke marijuana.

Bump.

I know plenty of people who are successful and smoke. People in here have the illusion that smoking somehow kills your life. As long as you've got nothing to do for the rest of the night, why not?
