Not only that, but marijuana is basically harmless. You can't overdose on THC. Not only that, but the smoke is much less harsh than that of tobacco.
Tobacco and alcohol are SO much worse, but those're both legal, so why not legalise a relatively harmless cash cow such as this?

Right now we have all these dumb commercials that don't do CRAP except squelsh the legalization. Stupid.Quote:

Beh, make it legal, see if I care, I don't touch the stuff. Heck, the more pot heads there are, the better the chances I'll get a job.
Weed: Doesn't kill anyone.
Alcohol and tobacco and hard-drugs: Kills all.
:cool: Be safe. Smoke pot.:)
I really don't see the relevance that smoking weed has to getting, or not getting, a job. I am an avid toker, when I can be, and I am usually the most desireable candidate for any job I've applied for in the last 8 years. I graduated university with Magna Cum Laude honors, and the three semesters where I smoked the most, I had a 4.0 grade point average. Weed does not make you stupid, and it does not make you irresponsible. It can make you hungry, however.:pQuote:

When learning for exams, i smoke quite a lot :D and my results were super!
And when i'm stoned: most of the time i can make better drawings;) mostly^^
O_- And it still surprises me that i can eat THAT much (when the munchies arrive :P)
Probably. That's a stupid reason to be against it. Please expand. Getting a high is bad, how?Quote:

I hate to break it to you, but there are a good many people who walk around stoned all the time already. Being high doesn't mean you're brain-dead. You can still THINK, just maybe on to the fullest extent. And I'd hardly consider being high dangerous.Quote:

You need to think of the legalization of weed like the legalization of alcohol. People don't walk around drunk ALL THE TIME, just because alcohol is legal, do they?
Yes, people will abuse it and do stupid things. But that's nothing new.
