What are your views on marijuana and why?

Question

And please no reciting of disproven myths like you can die or that it kills brain cells.

Answer 1

I believe that marijuana is unhealthy for your body. Infact I know it is. Its a scientific fact. You are inhaling smoke, and alot of it, plus it kills braincells.

I also believe that it could potentially be dangerous in the wrong hands. For instance a kid. A young teenager. Or someone that just isn't very mature. Even mature people get high, and go drive their car. Or drive around while smoking pot. I see it, and hang around people like that all the time.

What I do believe is this. People can do what they want, as long as they aren't hurting anyone else but themselves. I think marijuana should actually be legal with strict rules, education and awareness just like alcohol. In fact, in my opinion, alcohol is more unhealthy and dangerous then marijuana, and it was quite illegal back when are grandparents were kids. Now look at alcohol. Its socially accepted in almost all cultures and countries.

I am not some hippy that thinks marijuana is harmless and totally safe. Thats BS! But I am also not some uninformed, unexperienced right wing churchy nut bag that thinks it should be banned because of the guy next to him.

It should be legalized, but STRICT!

Answer 2

Marijuana is for idiots, if you are not stupid before you smoke it, you will be during the time you are smoking it and also smoking marijuana leads people to other drugs once the effect of marijuana is not strong enough.

Answer 3

i believe its your body and you can do with it what ever you feel. as long as a  marijuana habit does not effect me, or my loved ones  i.e. traffic accident, etc. its alright with me. infact any drug, illegal or legal is everyones personal choice. i am not god nor the law, nor perfect.

Answer 4

Its your body and your not harming society. And to be honest it is safer then alcohol. Totally think it should be legal.  

Answer 5

I live in a state where it is legal to use MJ for medical purposes.  I am a home health worker and I can tell you that it has significantly improved the quality of life for many of my clients.  It is a wonderful painkiller and also improves their appetites. It has been proven to cure brain cancer in 13 out of 15 lab mice and the two cases that were not cured, they were significantly improved.

Pot is a plant, it grows from the ground. If god didn't want it, it wouldn't be around!!

Answer 6

I'm sure I'll get lots of thumbs down for this, but I'm of the opinion that if alcohol is legal, pot should be too.  There are FAR fewer accidents and violent acts occurring because someone is high on weed.  I think the main reason it's still illegal is because there is no way to tell 'how high' someone is.  We have breathalyzers for alcohol, but there's nothing to tell how much weed someone has smoked.  

Answer 7

I have only done it it maybe 10 times and after every time i feel like a pot smoking loser. So i stopped. Don't care if other people do it. Its just not for me.
