There are people that will abuse anything, so making marijuana illegal to keep it from being abused is not the way to go. Legal marijuana would be taxed and used by many. It is a good product for many medical conditions and it is much better for a person physically than alcohol. Legalize it and tax the heck out of it.

Yeah, alcohol is SOOOO terrible. It isn't about the substance, it's about the person who is using it being responsible. Let's put the fault on where it belongs. You keep talking about how FREE we are, yet you want to put all these restrictions on what we can and can not do. I'm not sure you know what you want.

Isn't this society already dumbed down enough? People who vote don't even have a clue about the issues. Education is so bad that most teenagers can barely speak English, even the American ones. If you want to create the biggest rift between the rich and the poor and let liberals totally control every aspect of your life, legalizing brain killing drugs is a guaranteed way to do it.

@DogLady_1 - You asked why society is so dumbed down (before pot is legal) and I gave you the answer. Maybe that smoke has fogged your brain.

Marijuana will be what we need when this place becomes an unbearable world to live in. Marijuana is used for medical purposes and it helps with them. Whoever saod marijuana kills brian cells. Isnt that meth, cocaine, crack, heorin, perscription medicine, and so on. Marijuana is a plant. I know someof the other drugs I listed come from a plant, but they are still chemically altered in the kitchen. Unlik marijuana you smoke what you get directly from the plant. Until you can show me in the bible where is says directly smoking marijuana is a sin please show me. Marijuana legalization for me is they way to go and believe me I have plenty more reasons why besides these few.

What about the fact that it kills brain cells? What bout the fact that it causes all kinds of medical problems? And don't tell me it doesn't.. What about all the little babies in mama's wombs that have come out messed up because of it? What about just the plain fact that it alters ones mind and you can make decisions you might not otherwise make? What about the fact that it leads to harder stuff (maybe not in ALL cases but in MOST)? Because it alone stops being enough to satisfy... I don't care what kind of "educated person" you think you are if you say "it doesn't cause medical problems or lead to harder stuff". I have been around this stuff enough to know it's baaad ...

It hasnt been proven to kill brain cells, it has been proven to reduce or retard cancer cells. Medical pills actually have so many side effects including death. To kill yourself with marijuana you have to smoke your own weight in a short amount of time, and you actually don't die from marijuana but from the lack of oxygen and you'll more than likely pass out well before then.

Cannabis doesn't kill brain cells and hasn't been linked to a single medical problem, including pre-natal problems. There are 50 million cannabis users and less than a million heroin, cocaine, crack, meth, and all other 'hard' drug users COMBINED. 'Most' do not go onto harder drugs. Jesus have mercy is right. Jesus have mercy on those you created w/ an IQ of under 100 who use talking points from the 70's.

Hemp products are very strong and durable. Marijuana should be legallized everywhere as it has very effective medicinal purposes for a lot of people that could reduce their dependence on pain meds. How many pot related deaths do you hear about? How many alcohol related deaths do you hear about? Think about it and compare

If not legalized, at least decriminalized. A lot of money time and spaces in jails for a "drug" that in all my years I have never known of people killing, robbing or getting into accidents because they use marijuana. Take that money and time and use it for counceling, medical and rehab facilities for people who have addictions to meth, crack and pharmicudical pain killers (which has led to a jump in heroin use once again.)

Is it really any worse than alcohol or tobacco? Legalize it with age rules like alcohol and tobacco, tax it high, and turn it into a profit center instead of a waste of policing time. It's already pseudo legal for a number of people with the medical marijuana laws.

Can all the legalize marijuana people sign a waiver that I as a taxpayer won't have to pick up their healthcare tab for lung disease, etc later on? In that case I might be willing to consider some discussion on the matter as long as we are bring honest that this is a recreational use not this bogus medical marijuana nonsense. I know, I know, there are terminally ill cancer patients who swear this is medicine. To them, use whatever you like to enjoy the best quality of life you can get in the time you have left. I take no issue with that. As for the vast majority of users who simply want to get high, let's face it all the alleged medical evidence is anecdotal at best. S...

Do you have the right to decide for yourself whether to eat candy and fast food? Both of these are proven to be worse for you than marijuana, so would it be ok if the government decided to outlaw them so they could steal your money and lock you up in their for-profit jail system?

Yes...you wanna cut needless spending. Stop our war on drugs (which could easily be renamed the war on americans) and LEGALIZE AND REGULATE. Take away the black market funding going to mexican and columbian rebels. Put that money into schools and roads and hospitals via taxes. You cant overdose on it and it isnt addictive, cigerettes and alcohol cant even say that....its time for america to steep back, relax, and inhale. Its not the end of the world, and in fact would help our country in so many ways.

I read a lot of comments stating if it cannabis becomes legal that 12 year olds or younger children in general will have easier access.. Bullshit, go to the hood and see if you don't already see 12 year olds walkin down the damn street puffin a blunt like its a normal thing.. If a child is determined enough they will gain access in some way to whatever it is they want and whether it's legal or not it's still being done. But to support why I say yea.. Name one time you ever read a story that said " person high on marijuana killed someone" what did they push someone off the couch?? Lmfao! Marijuana has 3 damn effects, hungry, happy and sleepy.
