Some people like do Smoke Marijuana. They say it helps them fight depression, it is safe and helps people with arthritis as well as anorexic folks. Many Marijuana users claim there is a big dividing like between Marijuana, a.k.a. Mary Jane and some of it’s counter parts like Meth, Heroin, LSD, PCP. Statistics say that in the United States alone, over 30 million people have tried Smoking Pot at least once.

They do it through pipes, bongs and rolling papers mostly referred to a “joints”. Some of the poor mans approach to doing it is usually through used up aluminum cans with holes cut in the middle of it. Then they light it with a lighter or match and use the area of the can where you drink the soda to inhale the smoke.

This is a very common belief, especially around California where the establishment is seriously considering legalizing marijuana for the masses, provided the places that distribute it pay taxes on it. The near Bankrupt State of California sees this opportunity as a way to generate a couple extra billion dollars per year. Plus California is probably the most liberal state in the nation, and they see keeping this drug illegal is an unnecessary burden on law enforcement.

Proponents of weed say it is even safer than Smoking Cigarettes or Drinking Alcohol.

Believe it or not, “Buds and Suds” seem to be the choice for over millions of americans who have tried it at least once. You have to admit, I can’t remember ever hearing about someone overdosing on Marijuana or get extremely violent on it.

However, it does make you lazy. And when you are lazy nothing gets done. And when nothing gets done, that can cause a lot of other problems and you can end up falling behind in life in general, and I think that’s where the problem comes in. No I don’t think trying it once or twice ever hurts, but that’s what everyone said that’s been smoking it for 10 years or more. When people start smoking pot they tend to want to do it more and more.

I just think there’s a lot more positive things people should focus their energies on.

im doing a speech project, n it has to be a persuasive speech. and im trying to persuade people to join the green movement n legalize marijuana. and i need some reasons how its good n stuff like that. so please help me!

I can see tons of positives in legalizing marijuana. I can think of a couple reasons why people are agaisnt it. But, some of those reasons are just their opinion and can not be supported by any solid facts. It is very cliche to compare the legalization of marijuana to alcohol but it is a very accurate comparison. Yes, it may cause people to drive high, but people do drive drunk. One thing that is different here is marijuana is not nearly as dangerous as alcohol while driving a motor vehicle. It is also not nearly as dangerous in general. The facts show that no one is dying from marijuana but there is thousands dying from alcohol or tobacco. I’m having troubles finding negatives. So what im asking is What are some negatives or some problems that would occur if we did legalize marijuana. (The best answer will get 10 points.)
So, some of you are saying that we would have to cut back on police and prison guards. To me, I think that is good thing. Its bad for those people but good for the rest. Less crime with drugs because people do not have to go find it illegaly .
I see it as drug dealers would lose all their profits from it. The government would regulate it and sell it for themselves or give licenses to sell. That would also be a positive for legalizing. But, I think they would put an age restriction just as tobacco and alcohol has one.
The Netherlands makes tons of money from legalizing marijuana. Everything works out fine their. I know it is a much smaller country than the US, but their drug crime is obviously lower and the rest of their crime is also lower. With the legalization of marijuana, it brings money to the government and cuts down crime. I’m not to big on the money to the government but it would definitely cut down on taxes with millions going to the government from marijuana. People are going to do it. Whether or not is legal or illegal. Right now, the money is going to drug dealers who do not deserve to make a good living on illegal substances. So why not make it legal and get money places people will use it to make society a better place to live.
