    Well this one might be a bit touchy

    My opinion on the whole marijuana laws are it should be legal.

    99 percent of the time the way marijuana ruins someones life or the people around them is when they are arrested and put in jail, you cant od and die from marijuana, u really cant even od from it. your judgment may be impaired but what happens when u drink alcohol... ill tell u from experience drinking alcohol makes you much more impulsive and likely to do stupid things than pot does. Legalizing marijuana would also cut back on things such as Drug related crimes because it would be ALOT easier to do it without getting ripped off or ripping people off which can lead to assault or murder.


    that is my opinion on this whole topic whats yours?

    Hmm my opinion is leaving it illegalized because if it were legalized then people will be half dead on the streets getting high, etc.

    That is just stupid. Drug overdose case will soar, economies will hit rock bottom and of course leading to a crumbled nation.

    well legalizing mary jane could really help our econony. If it was sold in stores, the goverment(most likeley liberals) could put a high tax on it. Over time taxing marujuana would be a huge economic gain.

    Your statement completely contradicts itself. Legalize marijuana, but make alcohol illegal. They might as well be the same thing. Who cares if marijuana has "hurt" less people than alcohol? The fact is that it still "hurts" people.

    That's like saying the following:

    Being on a diet and not allowing yourself to eat brownies, but chocolate chip cookies are perfectly fine.

    Wrong.

    K alcohol IS much more dangerous whe abused, but i think either both shoudl be legallized or both should be illegalized. I honestly think that dealing with stoners coming into my store would be much more tolerable than drunks, thast just thinking as someone who would sell MJ or Alchohol

    to the person who said ppl will die of drug overdoeses:


    It has been scientificly PROVEN that its not possible to die of a marijuana overdose? but its VERY easy to die from alcohol overdoses?

    Marijuana is illegal becuz the legalization of hemp woudl ruin the governments snatch on cloths and paper cuz its easy to make paper and stuff out of hemp and it makes no sence to illigalize PARt of a plant so the whole thing is illegal its all a money thing

    Not so much true. because if you abuse alcohol you are way more likely to do something really bad, and most likely get someone dead or severely injured. With marijuana, you might just sit in a basement, or on a couch... And Alcohol effects many more aspects of the body. And yeah, it could also help the economy, because then i'm sure they'd tax the hell out of it. Also, it would get a lot of dealers off the streets, and who knows...they might do something a little more productive with their life....

    I agree completely. :)

    For example, my father lost his whole families respect and trust because of his drinking problem....

    I think Legalizing Marijuana, is not entirely bad. People these days do it anyhow. Legalizing makes it accessible and can boost an economy. I have never seen anyone, including huge stoner's, ever get hurt doing Marijuana. Alcohol Is basically the same as it. But Making both Illegal will lead to something else entirely. As then alcohol will have to be smuggled like MJ.
