Why is MARIJUANA ILLEGAL?
Parents, teachers, doctors, teens, kids, nurses, law enforcement officers… all of your opinions are worthy…
why is it illegal?
so it gets you high, or intoxicated..
so does alcohol!!
alcohol.. to me… is worse for me than weed..
not including the possible jailtime or life-long reputation of a stoner, but weed is better… it helps peope think things through… at least for me…
but… even in the recreational sense… WHY IS WEED ILLEGAL?? when ALCOHOL IS LEGAL???
alcohol cause short term amnesia.. its causes alcoholism… it causes men to promise their kids a tree fort but never actually follow through (true storry.. personal.. though..)…
weed, though, no promises were ever broken… no one i know of drives when they smoke.. though, when they drink, they still feel like they can drive..
why, when alcohol has cause thousands of lives per year in america… when weed has "caused"…. (when used by itself, versus when alcohol or other narcotics are used by themselves…)… when weed has "caused" virtually NONE.. in comparison with alcohol… is weed still illegal?
makes no sense? so what if it makes you dumber?
alcohol does that too!! i know… iv’e been in both trenches…
why can’t the american government legalize weed, and place heavy, "HEAVY", taxes on it?
if it were me… i would drink about 10 litres of wine a week… at about 4 bucks a litre…
if given the choice..
konwing that one gram of weed takes me a week and a half to finish… taken recreationally… and efficiently…
i would be spending at most half as much as i would be spending for alcohol..
so, if legalized…. i believe that most smokers would be willing to buy legalized weed, that has been taxed pre-sale… before they would take the risk of going to jail for the "moonshining" of illegal marijuana..
if marijuana were legalized, and any amount of taxes were applied… the government could earn sooooooo much more money…
not only in the sales of marijuana taxes, but also in the enforcement of marijuana laws..
…like.. how there is a law against "drunk in public"… well.. alcohol is available to the public..
if weed was, also.. well then being high in public would also be as bad as being drunk in public…
doubling the amount of federal revenue of local arrests based on "high in public…"….

White farm owners needed a reason to keep migrant Mexican workers from having too much fun with their white wives and daughters…(look it up, that’s a fact)

it should be legal. let the people who use it, use it. You aren’t doing anything right by banning it because it will just make more people want it. They will do this illegally. Ultimatley, the people who use it get health problems but give it to them(they are in charge of their health).

It was made illegal at the turn of the century for mostly racist reasons. Now pharmaceutical lobbyists dump millions of dollars into politicians pockets to keep it illegal. Pot is a much safer alternative to a whole bunch of legal drugs and cheaper too. It’s all about money, always is. Even the jails pot offenders are sent to are making money. Yep, private prisons housing criminals on tax payers dime. This country is really retarded a lot of the time.

No one you know drives when they smoke?? I know WAY more people who drive or think it’s okay to drive after smoking than after drinking. Seriously, WAY more people.
Also, there are more punctuation symbols than the ellipsis. I think your entire question is argument enough as to why marijuana shouldn’t be legal.
