Cannabis: Legalised or Not?

[Avarus]

Nah bro it is the nicotine in it. But holy crap you should see a list of some of the stuff in them. Rocket fuel for one, and handy andy glass cleaner for another (no they dont add handy andy, but they contain the ingredients that are in handy andy. thats wack)

 

[Mr. Kite]

Legalize.

This forum is for debate, i.e. take your side and say why - Andy

 

[Monk]

How many people who think it shouldn't be legalized/decriminalized have ever actually done it themselves?

 

[Faeroe]

Well; I believe it should be legalized; but there should be some restrictions on recreational use; sort of like a blood alchohol level limit. And employers should have the choice to restrict/limit use on marijuana if it gets in the way of the line of work.

I vote legalised

 

[Ellie]

I vote not legalised. Why I hear you ask?

Tobacco is legal. And look where that has got us.

 

[Roman Candle]

Yes, and tabacco is cannabis. So you're right.

 

[Stabbing Westward]

I am a strong advocate for the legalization of marijuana(and every other drug) because it's not the government's place to punish people for using a substance because they might hurt someone else.

Actually, by definition, that is exactly what the government should do.

 

[Stabbing Westward]

no, a government should provide punishment if you do something, not because you might.

 

[Rhazdel]

And screw the people that were hurt in the meantime?

 

[green raven]

I live in the netherlands :D it already is legal over here B)

 

[Lord_Warhammer]

It's a drug. It doesn't change anything. I could call marijuana medicine, and it would still be a drug. I'm mixed on the subject because with anything it can be abused. Over the counter drugs are completely legal and yet they still can have horrible side effects when abused. Does that mean it should be made illegal? Probably not because it's up to the person. Most people would probably abuse it though as a recreational drug if it was legalized. All drugs have bad effects, I don't really see the point in making it legalized. It seems everytime their is a drug out there that can have beneficial outcomes, they want to make it legalized.

Grandor that's the thing about marijuana, it's infinitely more possible to die from abusing water than it's possible die from abusing marijuana (drinking water vs. smoking pot). The only way it can severely harm/kill you is if it's laced with something, which if the stuff was made legal, and probably standardized, would happen far less.

Now, there's the of course legitimate claim that marijuana affects your judgment, motor skills, all that jazz. This argument is made a lot less valid when you consider that alcohol is legal, and worse in every immediate (and long term) way.

I'm all for legalization of marijuana, since it solves a lot more problems than it makes, but whatever. I don't use it so I don't care much. While illegal it's not exactly doing shit tons of damage anyways.

 

[Megadeth425]

In theory, legalizing it is good and I'm all for it. The inherent problem, though, is that if legalized, the government will standardize and profit off it. An odl friend of mine is an honest dealer, he grows them himself and then he and a few friends sell them. They don't lace it with shit, they don't add some extra shit to get people hooked, they don't add dangerous fillers and shit; they do it honestly. But, if the government were to legalize it, you can be sure they'd still arrest the honest, small-time dealers in favour of the mega corporations that will latch onto it, lace it, fill it with extra shit, and do the same things they do with tobacco. I'd say legalize usage and possession, but there's too great a downside to legalizing dealing.

And screw the people that were hurt in the meantime?

I live in a fairly low-middle class neighborhood, there's a lot of alcoholics and drug users in the area, and I can say with full certainty that the alcoholics get violent and end up fighting in the street on a vastly more frequent basis than the drug users.

 

[Rhazdel]

Actually, that statement was aimed at Stabbing Westwards comment that all drugs should be legalized.

If you read back, you will see my thoughts on alcohol, as well.

 

[Avarus]

I think they should legalise pure weed in joints with nothing else mixed. See, tobacco does nothing. They used to have just that in cigarettes and it was bad for your breathing, nothing more. But the makers put loads of shit in it to make it work better, make people want it more, make it more addictive. The same thing will happen with weed. But if laws are made so that doesnt happen, itd be brilliant.

 

[Torik]

I get the feeling if they legalize marijuana... there gonna want Cocaine legalized next... and then Meth, and then Heroine. You just can't when. Honestly I don't think it matters, because people are going to use it anyways. You might as well legalize it... it's better for you then alcohol already
