Marijuana

[-Charlie-]

Marijuana, do you think it should be legal or illegal? Tell me why.

 

Personally, I think it should be legal. From personally observing people and myself when on weed and comparing it to when someones drunk, it is not as bad. When people are drunk they tend to be violent, and overall just a pain in the ass. On the other hand, from what I've seen your more calm, and a bit slower.

 

Post your thoughts

They do actually, and it's still illegal either way

[Anthoni]

They should just legalize it.

[Adamantite]

So easy to acquire plus I never smoke in public so it really doesn't bother me.

[Nippon]

For ideological reasons I'd say legal, but for reasons related to my cashflow I'll say illegal :cool:

omg a drug lord playing runescape! ur so cool man

[Lawson]

Legal, doesnt do you any harm and as you said your worse taking alchohol

Legal but it won't happen. And if it did it would just raise the price. So it's good and bad for people that do smoke.

No it wouldn't. Presumably if it became legal to purchase it would also become legal to produce.

 

Not really too bothered, smokers gonna smoke.

Thus the government would get involved and do what they can to tax the everloving crap out of it and make bank.

Illegal because of the economic problems that would occur, with who can grow it and who can't would shift toward a new problem. Personally, I don't smoke so I don't care much.

[Shay]

Personally, legalizing it would cause a lot of problems with supply/demand issues. Until the world can come to a consensus on: how much weed is too much to intake at any given time and who can supply it and who cannot, it will never happen.

 

There is a bad stigma to weed already as the main suppliers of marijuana are drug cartels who use terrorism to make countries (Mexico) submit to their own type of law. Speaking for the US, we're so ******* afraid of illegals and illegal drugs that there is no way in hell that marijuana is going to be legalized any time soon.

[Nippon]

How can you argue on supply... keep in mind that weed is essentially a weed, it's extremely easy to grow and yields a big harvest with each plant. If it were legalized we'd most likely see a great increase in homegrowing and outdoors growing and the market value would drop anywhere in the world. The illegal import business from mexico/morocco/whatever would decrease and eventually disappear (or move on to other drugs), just like there's no big business in smuggling carrots or potatos (both harder to grow) over international borders.

 

As a fellow cannabis grower I don't mind the legal status right now, I grow enough for myself and closest friends and make some money out of it :happy:

It's not like its hard to get anyway. But i think if it was legalized and became accepted in society, people who now realise it's not at all dangerous might start trying out harder stuff, which can be dangerous, and i think thats the main concern.

The gateway theory as it stands has little to no scientific value. There is no reason to assume that the use of hard drugs would increase if only cannabis was legalized. On the contrary, the current legislation and agenda that groups cannabis with hard drugs (under the general category "drugs") supports one sort of a gateway theory. Not only does it bunch cannabis and its effects with more dangerous drugs, making cannabis seem more dangerous in the eyes of the public and hard drugs less so, it also essentially forces every cannabis user to deal with the people who also distribute/use hard drugs.

 

I don't think the change of legal status necessarily means that it will be accepted in society... is alcohol accepted? is tobacco? I think the important thing is to get rid of the term drugs and start talking about the specific effects and problems that the use of each substance causes. Discussing cannabis use in the general category of drugs diminishes the actual dangers and problems of so-called hard drugs.

The funny thing is, marijuana is classified as a Level 1 Drug (or whatever their terminology is, I forget), which puts it in the same grade as heroin and other top drugs. This basically makes people who are ignorant believe it is the worst thing to enter the world.

[imperial]

Legal, because it is used to medical practice already, but its used so much in the united states that if the legalized it and actually produced it in stores america would create alot of profit from it.

[OxYGeN]

i think it should be legal, i've seen first hand how it medical can acctually help someone. believe it or not.

 

and the soaring number of arrests over it is just stupid imo. they could be arresting someone doing more harm or what not. just not worth it to keep it illegal.

marijuana is for 17 year old **** tbh

In most cases the price of scunk is cheaper in Amsterdam then where I live in the UK. On top of that it tends to be more potent so you get more bang for your buck.

[Iwis`Rushin]

ur like 12

so r u

[Mark]

I've used it a few times, Haven't had any bad experiences with it. But at the same time, I've seen a close friend go from being 100% drug free, to trying marijuana and then later experimenting with tons of other drugs/pills

 

 

I think it's better to remain illegal at this point
