Should the possession of marijuana be legal?

Postby Othelos » Wed Jul 30, 2014 6:36 pm

As the title states, should possession of marijuana be legal?

Imo, yes, because it's none of the government's business as to what I put into my own body. It's also less harmful than alcohol, and it's not possible to become physically addicted to marijuana (which is what everyone is worried about when people use drugs).

What do you think, and why?

Yes. You should probably expand your OP, though.

Yes, it needs legalization for when the train ain't on time.

Here in Denver its as legal as you could want it.

I work in a gas station, and see a good mixed sample of the population; I have yet to hear one complain about legalization. That isn't to say there aren't people opposed to it, they just don't seem very vocal...

Yes, it should be then maybe the police would stop confronting me every time I eat marijuana products in front of them on purpose to troll them.

I have an imaginary friend, and she doesn't like drugs.

Should we base legal policy off imaginary friends!? NO!

I'm absolutely fine with it being made legal for both medical and recreational use.

You really need to come up with a new name, and something not so obvious while you are at it.

Maybe he thinks that "once you legalize weed, everyone will be doin' it!!"

Which, quite frankly, is bullshit.

Although marijuana usually doesn't cause direct harm, it should remain illegal because it is a gateway drug to truly harmful substances.

The gateway fallacy was disproved in the 1970s contrary to what that thug Nixon tried to have people believe.
