If Marijuana gets legalized I don't want the Gov' to have any business with it...because the next thing you know in 20 or 50 years people will start getting sick from smoking it because they will be adding these unnecessary chemicals...at least that's what I think.

Chemicals are already added by a lot of growers to make it more potent, weed didn't magically get stronger in past years. Though smoking it isn't the best route to go either as the smoke hurts your lungs, edibles are the safest bet.

I love edibles...however I think the damage depends on how much you smoke it and how hard..

There are cons, make sure you stay educated on all possibilities if you intend to use it.

Yes it's MUCH less dangerous than cigarettes or alcohol but ANY smoke going into your lungs is unhealthy, still it is by far the safest drug you can partake in.

No, marijuana is safer if it is regulated by government. As it is right now, marijuana can be laced with other shit, and bad for your health. Regulating it would prevent this, prevent criminals from making money, so gangs have less power, and generate profit from taxes. The only downside I can see is smokers will be more open about it so if you find weed annoying, then there's that. Also, maybe more smokers.

(Not trying to be annoying responding to all of these) The government doesn't care much about what goes in our bodies to be honest, just look at all the ingredients in junk food and read what's in your tap water. Honestly the more corrupt side of the government would probably find a way to slip different chemicals in to test the outcome.

Would you rather trust your local drug dealer?

Junk food is of course unhealthy, common fact, but only in abnormal amounts and the government isn't responsible for that. You might have a case for tap water but I don't think studies are on your side for that.


Cons:

Weed will destroy pharma
Weed will take away business from tobacco companies
Cost of food might go up

Cost of food might go up? If that's true than I think that is an argument not to have weed but I haven't heard of that.

Marijuana has a terrible odor to it that lingers off the smoker's clothing. Imagine that odor in a work environment, really unprofessional.

All three are wild exaggerated assumptions without any factual stats to back it up. Please provide some reliable sources.

While I don't care if they remove the ban on it ( India applied it only under international pressure - namely USA). But having said that Bhang and Charas ( Hashish form) of Cannabis have been popular among certain class here. But also the degrading words like Bhangeri and Charasi for the addicts of this drug. And they were degrading because these people are usually not that productive people of the society, not very responsible and reliable worker for most jobs and often a burden on their families.

There are no cons.... really? Insert eye roll here.
