@chris7torontoĀ it is not your decision what other people put in their bodies maybe you should read about both sides of the story and maybe even try it for yourself before you begin an argument for something you dont understand. Usually what i do when i dont know about something, i educate myself about it, try it, and make decisions only for myself. (also find it kind of strange that your'e against it more than alcohol or so it seems.) heres a little nugget on information weed hasnt ever killed anyone in recorded history whens the last time youve heard of marijuana poisoning?
I dont think thats true,alcohol and ciggs.are legal,and those who chose to use will,those that dont wont.I dont think just because the government deems something legal that it will lead people to think its safe.Within five years of a state making it legal,I will bet that pot use will be less than before it became legal,not to mention the crime rate will drop.Also those with pain will have a choice between a natural herb with limited side effects,or the horrible side effects of pain killers.
I 100% disagree with that. But thats okay we can differ lol. Its just it may not even be any easier to get it if they make it legal than it already is. Any high school kid can get it at school i promise.
It's a nice idea that now that it's legal they won't want it anymore, because it's not cool or bad-ass. But the reality is that it will lead to more people doing it because they will think "Dude, if the government legalises it, it can't be that bad" This is the problem.
First off you should care for the well being of people. If I saw someone who was hurting themselves through drugs I would try to help them off of it. Also in my country of Canada, I do care a lot about how people treat their bodies because I am paying for their health care, so a healthier population means more efficient hospitals. Finally, I never said that potheads kill people. Anyone drugged up can do crazy things, drugged driving and people on bath salts eat other people.
Snort all the coke you want. In fact, go shoot up some heroin first, it will make the high even better.. Why the hell would I care what you want to do with your personal body? Comparing it to weapons is just stupid. How many potheads you know that go on shooting rampages and hurt people?
Well since they allowed it for medical use in california, teen use (mainly high school aged kids) went down. If you tell a people they cant do that or have it. then they want it, if you can have it then you know it will always be there and wont have to get it all the time or take advantage of it. Like when you dont let a kid do shit and then when you do let them out you wonder as a parent why they wont listen to you and come home late. because they dont get to do it often.
So just because it's easier we should make it legal? I can get cocaine easily too, as well as weapons, so maybe we should legalize whatever I can get my hands on?
I think that it's a problem with marijuana being legalized for recreational use. As a teen I know it's easy enoughļ»æ for us to get alcohol which we are not legally allowed to have. Now weed? I just don't see how this could be good for the teens, it's making it a lot easier for them.
y the is no card for alcohol..?š¦
legalize it here in massachussett right now LOlĀ

if you knew anything about being a teen in 2012 you would know that its actually easier to get a bag of weed than it is to get a six pack of beer.
WHY is it a problem?
Its easier to get weed than it is to get alcohol.
Weed is far less harmful to your body then Alcohol.
Great points.
everrrry day!
