I Think Marijuana Should Be Legalized

While I do not personally make use of cannabis, I believe that there has been more than sufficient evidence that this herb is extremely useful for treating and even curing various ailments, all while causing almost no risks for cancer or any other known illness.

It is far easier to regulate something that is in the open market than it is to regulate something that is exchanged behind closed doors, is it not?

yeah but with big business interests it is hard to get tho

@PeaceandCompassion: not really, i sell you a cigarette behind closed doors and you say thanks, i sell you a cigarette in an open market and suddenly its illegal tobacco sales.

@xSharp: yeah it is all corporate interests

At least you won't have your home invaded and your dog shot because you possess a substance that is only beneficial.

you still might cops criminals not much difference

But criminals would not really benefit from stealing cannabis. If we were talking about an addictive substance, like cocaine, then sure, that might happen. But, cannabis is not addictive.

@PeaceandCompassion: do not posses it,keep it one inch off of your property and smoke it as you need it, as long as the scent is covered you will be fine, and you can never get charged for it thanks to plausible deniability.

@PeaceandCompassion: I agree but that point has no relevance as its more how do we control this to make money

@PeaceandCompassion: every time i have stolen weed i have benefited because i could smoke it all.
