Marijuana Legalization - For it or against it?
Let's get a debate going boys
|
Definitely pro-legalization
|
All for it.
my mom said when it's legal and I'm old enough I can do pot c: |
already legal here, so sure.
|
Doesn't matter. I'll smoke it either way ;D
|
I'm on both sides with good reasons, but overall i think it should be legal, just with restrictions tho, like an age limit, not being allowed to drive high, or go to work high. I highly support it due to it being what i think is the number 1 cause of arrests, which is stupid, why arrest someone over a measly gram of weed when a citation is enough? Alcohol is far worse and thats legal. And for medical and economic purposes, it does wonders, it can cure a lot of sicknesses, and hemp makes good material. I say legalize it but be smart with it.

As long as you don't give it to annoying kids. I'm all for it.

As you were saying, I totally agree it should be legalized with restrictions. It should just be treated the same way as alcohol. |

In the future McDonald's is gonna have a value pot menu

Keep it illegal. Drugs should be used for medical use only. Don't need anymore druggies than there already are.
Either way, people will still smoke it anyway... |
Legalize it.

But in all seriousness all for legalization, so many benefits. Good for material (Although I'm sure it will never be used for material) good for the economy, good for the money we spend on drugs, will help with the suicide rate, less overcrowding in jails. I don't see any reasons for it to be legalized anymore, besides the old misconceptions which have been proven wrong again and again.

Let's have it stay illegal so these threads will never stop.

I'm all for it, as long as no reputable studies come out detailing that it's bad for long term cognitive function. Then again, we still let people smoke and that's been shown to be a death sentence. As stated by GenoIndeed above, restrictions would be needed. You should be 21 before you could purchase it. Think that it should fall under "driving under the influence" just like alcohol. Marijuana should also fall under "No Smoking Zone" regulation too. |

They are still pretty goddamn annoying. Considering this would probably be a recreational drug, the same or similar laws that apply to smoking and drinking would probably apply to this. |

I never said everyone who takes drugs is a druggie, but legalising it will increase the amount of druggies, for sure. No need to get angry |
sure it can be legal but with everybody walking around with blunts...idk about that

I think you guys need to realize is not everyone smokes or drinks. Your life isn't in any immediate danger of being attacked by an angry drunkard or secondhand smoke. |

I'm sure these "heavy pot smokers" used in those studies were never the brightest kids before they started smoking and they just wanted some easy cash (referring to that webmd link). |
"Why not, it's not hurting anybody."

Sure, but I think there should be strict rules along with it. I also think we should be way more strict with alcohol. Really, anything that can alter perception should not be taken lightly. If you're somewhere that you don't plan on leaving for a long while (like your house) then go wild. Can't do anyone but yourself any harm by sitting on your couch getting high/drunk, so whatever. But if you're going to go out somewhere, drive, go to work etc., there needs to be some serious enforcement.
Cigarettes are extremely unhealthy, but they don't alter your vision or render you incapable of walking straight. |
Rather have it legalized so these police can focus their attention on the more serious drugs that actually make people rob and kill others for.

Weed is like the hot topic in every school. Sure I like weed but I just dislike the convos about in school.

Tbh I think the world would be a better place if bars didn't have, or were near, parking lots... Or maybe not exist at all. Why give people the opportunity to drive somewhere to get drunk only to have them drive back home after. Quote:
I don't care what people do by themselves away from other people. If you're at home or something I couldn't care less how high or drunk you get. It's when people decide to put other lives at risk thinking they can do something that they shouldn't be doing until they're sober. Imo alcohol doesn't have a single benefit. Weed, however, I've read helps with diseases... But I mean it's still smoking and it's still not good for you I'm sure. |
I'm in favor of legalization with regulations. I like the way my state currently handles the situation. If you regulate it like alcohol (have to be over 21 years old, no driving high, etc.) then I don't see much of a problem.

I'm not against making it legal. I'm for it for some of the reasons other people have said previously. I just think strict rules should apply to those who aren't using it within the confines of their own home since I don't want people I care about or myself to be sideswiped by some high or drunk idiot that thought "I'm totally capable of driving" instead of waiting until they were sober like a responsible person should. |
Quote:
"Every day, almost 30 people in the United States die in motor vehicle crashes that involve an alcohol-impaired driver. This amounts to one death every 51 minutes. The annual cost of alcohol-related crashes totals more than $59 billion." About 30 too many, and many more people still drive high/drunk. Legalizing weed is dumb but may as well make money off it because people will do it anyways, the fact that a majourity of teenagers and todays youth are only getting into political debates when it's about weed kind of says something The fact people on here trying to convince us driving high is ok and not bad at all should also say something |

There will always be a few idiots that completely ruin it for everybody else, be it drunk driving or texting + driving. In the end, education is important. I don't go near my car keys for 24 hours after I've had even a drop of alcohol. I'm all for stricter laws on restricting drivers if they're being ******ed, I just don't know how some places (esp in the US where public transportation isnt adequate in many areas) could viably enforce it. |

i dunno, people drink a lot in nordic countries and things seem to be going ok |
You can make the rules as strict as you want, but there will always be people drinking and smoking illegally. Everyone shouldn't suffer because of these people since they will always exist.. The laws are already strict, it's just that a lot of people don't follow them lol.
And for Colin, have you ever been high before? |
