Well, seeing as i am not a pot head and im not “brain dead” i think people will be able to see it from a different light.
first of all, there a tons of good things about weed, and plenty of bad things.
some good things are: weed is only harmful to extreme addicts and people who get “bad” weed
its just as bad as alcohol and cigarettes, if not safer
Alot of pot heads i know are not any less intelligent from smoking(actually, some are smart and now are thinking more)
weed is so popular that alot of socially challenged people find a place with pot heads, smoking or not.
(there are tons more but i dont wanna waste time…)
some bad things are:
Weed is a gateway drug
weed has been known to make people more paranoid
weed, just like ANY drug, can be harmful in certain situations
Its plain old illegal.
I think that despite these cons, weed should be legal for a few reasons,
1.would reduce crime because with government regulating it, drug dealers would be non existent (much like the banning of alcohol, weed being illegal creates a market…)
2. With government in full control of weed market,two good things can happen. A. Government can keep weed clean and safe, also keeping records of how much a persons’ doing, so they dont overdose, and what they’re doing (i mean smoking wise) so they dont have “secret ingredients” and B. Government can profit off of it just as the drug dealers are doing, bringing in funds for our economy issue.
3. A lot of people want it. (although i admit it has been voted on, right?)
4. Plenty of people only aren’t smoking because it’s illegal
i know there are more good reasons, so feel free to add them as well. dont give me bogus answers like “it kills brain cells” (its not like your body doesn’t make more) or “it makes you stupid”(you make smoke because your stupid, but your not stupid because you smoke). be honest and fair and dont disrespect me for me deciding to support them, just like i dont disrespect you for not.
