  • "havnt" You need to educate yourself, cannabis is only beneficial and is not at all harmful.

  • None of that proved cannabis is harmful and some of it was blatant lies, cannabis is NOT physically addictive like alcohol, only psychologically in the same way as food or sex can be dependent on the user's mentality.

  • And how is it worse than alcohol or tobacco?

  • In some ways it is, in some ways it isn't. But that's not a good argument for why it should be legal.

  • If it's no worse than alcohol, which can significant impair you in a short time span if you aren't careful, or tobacco which is well known to increase the risk of cancer, why should marijuana be illegal?

  • Because Marajauna is also bad for you. And should not be legal. You cannot make alcohol and cigs illegal now though, because they are to intertwined with society. Look what happened last time we tried prohibition. It won't work again. So logically you cannot make those illegal. But why should we add another harmful substance to the world legally?

  • It isn't bad for you and absolutely should be legal as it always has and always will be because our liberty has always trumped tyrants and unjust laws. Prohibition is an expensive waste that infringes on us and has caused more harm than drugs ever could, you have deluded yourself with propaganda to believe otherwise and you are the last person to be discussing this topic, I have already proven you wrong many times. You now admit prohibition doesn't work, which is why it hasn't worked with any drugs and only made things worse. Cannabis is ALSO intertwined with society being one of the most recreationally used drugs in this country. It's not harmful, and gives us a safer option from the ones that ARE harmful, not to mention prohibition only creates gangs, violence and false imprisonments which drains our resources while also creating bad people and making drugs more available to children.

    [quote]Because Marajauna is also bad for you. And should not be legal.[/quote] But would you not say alcohol is worse, due to the short term effects? [quote]But why should we add another harmful substance to the world legally?[/quote] Tell me how that "War on Marijuana" is working - it's a waste of money that should be put towards something more effective than arresting, prosecuting and jailing people who smoke weed. I'm all for the harsher stuff like Heroin staying illegal, but marijuana honestly isn't that bad. Legalize it, tax it, and move on to more important problems.

  • Tell me how the war on drugs is working, and not just Marajauna. Might as well make cocaine legal, we can't stop it. That's your logic. And Marajauna is bad for you. It's been proven before over and over, my link is a perfect example. If you make one harmful subs stance legal, people are going to want to make others. And you CANT tax it either. That's what people don't understand. The government won't automatically be able to control it all. You will still have drug cartels selling Marajauna illegally. You will still have to use police officers to stop them from selling it illegally if it was made legal. You think the drug cartels are just going to go away?

  • All drugs SHOULD be legal, you fool. It's called freedom, and you have every right to harm yourself. Prohibition DOESN'T WORK which YOU EVEN ADMIT! You prove yourself wrong and just humiliate yourself, I actually feel sorry for you. Cannabis is not at all bad for you. It's never been proven and all propaganda has been debunked. There shouldn't be taxes at all. Drug cartels won't be able to sell when they have to compete with a safe business.

  • [quote]Tell me how the war on drugs is working[/quote] It's not, at least when it comes to Marijuana. [quote]Might as well make cocaine legal, we can't stop it. That's your logic. [/quote] Not even close. [quote]And Marajauna is bad for you. It's been proven before over and over, my link is a perfect example. If you make one harmful subs stance legal, people are going to want to make others. [/quote] Your 'proof' (From a United States Government website, you know, who are against it?) says that Marijuana can cause an increase in heart beats, more frequent coughing, and if you smoke a lot in a short amount of time (A lot meaning more than most do), possible hallucinogen effects. We're talking a lot. Tell me, look up the effects of Cocaine, Heroin or Meth. Tell me how those compare to what Marijuana causes [quote]And you CANT tax it either.[/quote] How are Washington and Colorado doing, eh? [quote]The government won't automatically be able to control it all. You will still have drug cartels selling Marajauna illegally. You will still have to use police officers to stop them from selling it illegally if it was made legal. You think the drug cartels are just going to go away?[/quote] Haha. Tell me, after Prohibition ended, how did all those alcohol houses where they would make and sell it illegally end up? Oh yea, broke, because people didn't need to go to them anymore. Yes, Drug Cartels will still be around. But whatever power they have will be significantly lowered if you could go to a smoke shop and buy there.

  • The war on drugs isn't working for any drug. That's my point. And I figured you would say that my website was against it, it isn't a good website. Most people that do pot say that. If they are against it, and other website are for it, I guess no website is a good website. And yes, meth ect is worse than marjuana. But how you can justify adding one harmful drug to being legal, and not another? Again, it is harmful, did you read my whole article? It shows much more than what you said. And you think everyone in Colorado and Washington get their weed legal (from a distributor), you are sadly mistaken.

    You proved yourself wrong, again. Wow, I've never seen someone so pathetic. Your website had blatant lies and has been debunked countless times. All drugs SHOULD be legal. That's because businesses haven't opened up, fool. You think people are going to choose a shady dealer over a respectable business? Are people buying wine off the streets still? You're so delusional it's sad.

If they are against it, and other website are for it, I guess no website is a good website.[/quote] I don't smoke, never have. However, if you have a group/organization/country that has something banned, do you think their website is going to say good things about it? Pull up a website from the Netherlands, for example, and it will point out some of the benefits of marijuana. [quote]Again, it is harmful, did you read my whole article? It shows much more than what you said.[/quote] I did read. And the more dangerous things require you to smoke a lot of weed in one sitting, more than most people do. [quote]And you think everyone in Colorado and Washington get their weed legal (from a distributor), you are sadly mistaken.[/quote] Lol. I'm done arguing with you because you obviously can't look at facts from an unbiased viewpoint. Scurry along and go back to doing whatever.

  • Did I say that Marajauna didn't have positive affecs? No. Alcohol has positive affects too, what's your point? The negatives outweigh the positives. And how can you say that people don't smoke a lot? Do you speak for everyone? Especially since you don't smoke. Studies have shown that the increase of use will actually most likely increase now that it is legal. [url]http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/3529986[/url] That details all the rules and regulations. Let me guess, you believe people will only buy the ounce of Marajauna they are legally can buy? And possess that one ounce?

  • No, they don't because there are only insignificant negatives. Alcohol can be very dangerous and deadly, cannabis can not. No, studies have shown it's virtually unchanged and has only LOWERED teen use in medical states, also, places where laws are more relaxed have lower usage rates. What business is it of yours how much people use or buy?
