if marijuana is so "harmful" then why do they perscribe it to people? i know it helps with there disease but its so "harmful" they shouldnt give it to em. and they say "its to strong, grown in peoples back yards its to potent" and "the marijuana ciggeretts (joints) have no filters." but if they legalize it companies could grow the marijuana in a field somewhere and control how potent it is and "harmful" it is. and they could also put filters on it. and if you think about it, people wouldnt murder over a drug deal gone bad. because you wouldnt need to buy it from a person just from a store. they nation could tax the hell out of it like they do ciggeretts and make more money for there selfish selves.they could also make it into a very small ciggarette enought to maybe get you buzzed. in conclusion i think marijuana should be legalized.

thats my argument, anybody agree or disagree? and if you agree help me out im makeing mother fuckers look bad from left to right in that class! me and my 2 friends are winning that argument and i think we will win i just need more info and a better argument!

Alcohol is legal, as are cigarettes. Marijuana is not as harmful as those 2, so if those are legal so should  marijuana be. If I could, I'd have all 3 banned indefinetly in society but hey, I don't rule the world.

the effects of cigarretes dont do shit to your mind...they fuck up your body but thats a different story, alcohol however should be illegal (i drink so this will sound hipocritical) because you get the stupid motherfuckers out there who choose to drink & drive and end up killing someone or themselves, or the guy who comes home drunk and beats his wife and kids. alcohol has bad effects...

as far as marijuana goes i can really kinda see both sides...marijuana alters your state of mind therefore having a higher risk of making a stupid decision (like driving while high), i have been in the car with someone driving stoned...its not the most safe feeling. if they legalized it then there would be a hell of a lot more lazy ass people that dont do shit...ever see that commercial where the kid is talking about his brother who smoked weed for years and he says something like "he didnt go to jail, he didnt die, in fact...he didnt do much of anything" and you see the dude on the couch just sitting there stoned as fuck...that would be half of america right there.

then again...any of the countries where it is legal or is not necessarily enforced hard have a much lesser crime rate than we do, etc....i think the best thing they could do would be to have marijuana illegal...but not have such harsh penalties for it.

Trauma-san:
My opinion changes all the time, but in general, I don't think any drugs should be illegal.  If someone wants to fuck up their life and live stoned all the time, that's their perogative.


I don't do drugs.  It's not because I don't have access to them, because I do.  It's not because I can't afford them, because I can.  I don't do drugs because I'm smart as fuck.  I don't even take fucking aspririn.  I'm a human being.  We're the greatest evolution of species that has ever walked the planet. If we get hurt, our body heals itself.  Think about that shit for a minute.  There's not much your body can't heal on it's own, and usually, if it doesn't kill you, it literally makes you stronger.  Of course there are exceptions where you have to have stuff taken care of by a surgeon or a doctor, I'm not talking about being stupid.  I'm talking about knowing your body and what you're capable of.

Anyways, I digress.  I wouldn't care one way or another if drugs are legalized, but they shouldn't tax them.  You know why? Because then the government will have set a precident that they can decide what foods we can and can't eat without being taxed.  They'll start taxing McDonalds, we all know that's bad for you, too.  They'll start taxing cookies.
