Wtf is marijuana illegal? I know you guys are probably saying to yourselves "here's another bird singing the same song" but seriously. It's a proven fact that alcohol and cigarettes are more deadly than marijuana and they each take away 10-15 years off of a person's life span. And the ****** up part is people can die from second hand smoking. Meaning even if you don't smoke if you're around people who smoke you're ****** bro. Which is why I get pissed off cause usually when you're out on the busy streets of New York. There's always gonna be that one ugly old ***** or that ******* person who's gonna be smoking right in front of you as you're walking outside.

This is all I'm saying if marijuana is illegal than alcohol and cigarettes should be too. It's simple logic. I bet you no one can find any reason as to why marijuana is a "dangerous" besides the bull shit theory that it's a gate way drug which is completely false. You don't see me doing any drugs do you? And here's a fun fact that you guys probably didn't know the caffeine you get from coffee is more addicting than marijuana.


And this has nothing to do with weed but shouldn't the drinking age be lowered? I mean come on if you're "legally" an adult at 18 then why is it you have to be 21 or older to drink? And yet in order to enrol in the army you still have to be 18. So that basically means at 18 you're old enough to use a automatic weapon,fight and die for your country but not old enough to drink.

 

[kuramamode]

its legal where i live.

It's not illegal, because most of the world drink, and smoke.
I don't believe how many of the worlds population smoke weed, but I don't think it should be illegal.
Though, all of them can damage your health, but marijuana is used for medicine in some cases.

As longest you don't get caught , anything is legal .

 

[Ōkami]

Well I'm back in Washington state, and it's legal here.

Did you just say marijuana can damage your health? Or am I not reading your comment correctly.

True but it's sad that you have to do something in secrecy that isn't even bad. When there are people out there who are smoking cigarettes where ever the fck they want.

 

[Vstatic]

It's illegal for the government's benefit. As for the drinking age I have no problem with it being 21. But I find it ridiculous how so many man-made substances we're allowed to consume are terrible for us, but a natural plant which has actual medicinal benefit, along with so many other uses, is illegal.

It can damage your health if you're doing stupid stuff..
EX: Put your head threw a wall.... Some poeple actually do that.
But other than that no, it's used for medicine.

I love this.....

Its legal here in Netherland.

There isn't a good reason. If alcohol is legal then weed should be fine too. It was made illegal a long time ago but some president I think (really not sure) and it hasn't been fully corrected since then. It'll be legal in our country someday though, more and more public polls show that people don't see the harm in it and researchers have proven that it doesn't affect your health too bad unless you just plain make bad decisions. I give it another 10 years with where I'm from since I live in the Southern states, but until then, keep what Punk said in mind. It's legal as long as you don't get caught. *_*

 

[FemmeFatale]

It's illegal because the government cant legally tax it.

 

[FitzChivalry Farseer]

Well cannabis has been on this earth for centuries, dont you think there is ecperience behind the law that most ppl are ignoring because they cannot see the long repercussions of the herb

America is not the only place is illegal much less the same timeframe

Exactly advil pills are like 75 cents where I live and they're perfectly legal, if you take 15 of those pills it'll be the last head ache you ever get. Now weed on the other hand? Doesn't do anything to you it's sad reallu.

When people smoke weed they're fully aware of what they're doing they just don't give a ****. Unlike alcohol, when people drink they do stupid shit and don't even ******* remember, The only uncontrollable thing that happens to a person when they're high is laughter, and depending on which type you smoke they feel slumped. Weed doesn't make you do anything stupid at all, it just calms you down, it's not dangerous for your health get your head out of your ass and don't comment on my thread if you don't know shit about it.

I still want to be able to smoke outside though no problems, honestly even cops don't care you can't even get arrested for weed they just confiscate it from you depending on the amount you have. And probably go smoke it themselves. And weed doesn't make you do any bad decisions at all. When people are high they're fully aware of everything that's going on, and know exactly what they're doing I can't tell you how many times in the past when I got high outside and came back and no one in my house noticed cause I knew how to control myself. Now if I was drunk that would've been another story see my point? People generally think weed makes you do bad decisions which isn't true, if you do make bad decisions while you're high than just means you're a douche bag who knew what you were doing

Because if weed was legal the government would do to it what they did to tobacco. Joints would eventually become just as bad cigarettes cuz they are just gonna add hella stuff because they could at that point. Tobacco cigarettes used to be nowhere near as bad for you but govt regulation of it ruined it, I believe the same thing would happen with weed

 

[mr opportunist]

bet it'll be just as legal as cigs 5 years from now.

 

[Saf4g914]

weed is illegal in america because americas founding "fathers" were tobacco and cotton farmers. Hemp was a danger to their industries because it was easier to grow, funner to smoke and can be made into fibers with multiple purposes from clothes to rope. Since they were so vested already in their farms instead of going over to hemp they simply made it illegal, which was cheaper. They kept it illegal with propoganda and false information. Ever notice how the decline in the power of ciggerette companies all of the sudden led to the rise in the legalization of weed? Rest assure its not happen stance.

Because if it was fully legalized, it would completely decimate all of the Major Pharmaceutical Company's stocks.

People can grow their own weed though and buy roll up,fonto,bamboo,etc so I don't see the problem

the only people i've ever heard make this argument are hipsters or stoners. which are you?

None. I'm a guy who enjoys smoking weed end of story.

bet it'll be just as legal as cigs 5 years from now.

People can grow their own weed though. And it's less damaging so it can't even be compared to cigs.

You really think you can get high off o second hand weed smoke? That wouldn't happen unless you were with people hotboxing or at a concert where HELLA people are smoking. You'll never get high just cuz one friend is smoking next to you unless they're blowing it in your face or something
