Thread: Legalizing Mary-Jane Yes or No?

Ok so you want to start a thread on a serious topic of drug reform, yet you call it "mary-jane" in the thread title, use horrible grammar and spelling (honostley, you do) and use "localwireless.com" as your source?

In an attempt to save the thread, I'll bite on your topic - the problem with the marijuana legalization movement is because those who most avidly support it are retarded potheads that cannot make a good traditional argument. They come off as stupid potheads and no one pays any attention to them.

My personal position is that ALL drugs should be legalized, in the sense that they are not illegal to consume or possess. You should have the right to do whatever harm to your body you want as long as it does not endanger others. Now, if the government was smart, they would not only legalize marijuana but assume regulation of production. It is much safer than alcohol, cigarettes, prescription drugs and many more things I'd guess, even safer than caffeine or aspartame. If a kid can buy a diet coke and get two drugs in it that have proven harmful in lab rats, why can't a legal adult buy a joint? Do you know how much marijuana it takes to kill a lab rat? About 20 pounds... dropped on the rat's head. (I didn't make that up, I paraphrased it from something I heard).

Regardless of my spelling,grammar,or source you yourself should refer to the dictionary and check out the spelling of "honostley" because it's spelled honestly. So HONESTLY~ I can understand how you feel or why you might feel that way.. However a bunch of heroin or pcp addicts biting the eyes out of little children just doesn't fly with me. Yes that's where becoming a danger to others comes in. I understand that an addict in itself is a danger to others (robbing,stealing,mugging,littering AIDS infested needles everywhere). However MARY JANE alone tends not to cause these types of problems. In fact it has had some very important breakthroughs medicinaly in the last 20 years. And although you may be richer (BAHAH!) and more educated than myself I find your response complete JACKASSERY~ but to each their own. I hope you voted.

They should regulate it and tax it, if they offered a better deal than drug dealers then that would drive them out of business, or at least reduce their income significantly.

It would also make it a lot safer, im not sure how it is in the US, but in the UK there was/is a problem with contamination, people adding stuff such as sand, glue and even some reports of lead to increase their profit.

I do agree with parts of that. Taxing & legalizing marijuana would definately hurt a drug dealer's business in turn making the streets a bit safer. (in theory anyway) However, if everyone picks up a pack of joints to go with their 12 pack of beer our highways are destined to become a graveyard. So recreational use doesn't have my vote as much as medicinally does. I just don't see the downfall for medical marijuana.
