Weed is becoming more and more accepted around the world, something that’s been made clear by the fact that its legalization is increasingly being considered across many countries and states. One of the advantages of legalizing marijuana is that it could reduce the amount of criminal activity around the drug, as it eliminates the need for dealers to illegally distribute the substance in back alleys.
My dealer is a real sweetheart i'd love for him to have his own shop.
Legalizing weed would also end the unnecessary and cruel police crackdown on dealers and consumers.
Government-regulated and tested marijuana could be safer for the consumer compared to what is available on the street today.

Finally, marijuana has been proven to treat certain medical conditions, such as chronic pain, reducing inflammation, and easing the symptoms of diseases like Anxiety, AIDS and cancer. Legalizing pot would make it much easier for anyone needing relief from such conditions to access the drug. All in all, the potential health, social, and financial benefits of legalizing weed seem to outweigh any potential risks.

I can't smoke it as a Christian (unless legit medical reasons) but why it is illegal is beyond me.

@BritishFailedAesthetic Why is that? Does christianity prohibit drug use?
@Gloomy Yes, it would be hypocritical for me to say the Bible prohibits being drunk on the basis of it's instructions to stay sober and then in the next breath to say being high is ok

@BritishFailedAesthetic it's illegal because it is a narcotic effect from smoking or ingesting. Yes it does relieve pain but it also can be addictive to certain people, especially the new brands coming out now where the users report a higher state of anxiety after using it.

@Disgustedman by that logic nicotine should be illegal as well

@Gloomy ah but the government gets tax money from it that's the thing funny ain't it? However it's not a narcotic there's the difference.

@Disgustedman Tabacco is a narcotic and the government could get taxes out of weed
@Gloomy Bang on!
