What is it with people wanting to make marijuana legal?
Question by gamerdude200808: What is it with people wanting to make marijuana legal?
I really get tired of seeing people argue back and forth about why they think marijuana aka “weed” is ‘good’ for you because it comes from the earth.
Scientifically proven effects include relaxation, euphoria, altered space-time perception, alteration of visual, auditory, and olfactory senses, fatigue, and appetite stimulation (colloquially known as “the munchies”). It is thought to reduce aggression in certain subjects, but some of the people that I have gone to school with were more aggressive when they were on it. It’s smoke going into the lung…no matter if the “herb” is “natural”. It’s natural state is not on fire, and our lungs’ natural state is breathing air and not smoke. A forest is natural wood and plants, but if you go stand in a forest fire, it will kill you within minutes without breathing equipment. We know that when non-natural things are introduced into the body, it has the potential for cancer (and cancer is basically just cells that go crazy, forgot how to function properly and multiply massively into tumors…we seem to overlook that a lot) and other complications.
Millions of people want for it to be “legalized”…but realistically, do you want people driving around in cars, in planes, in machinery, etc. high on what would then be a ‘legal’ drug? Do people not realize the implications of that and what it would do to our already screwed-up society?
Yes, for people who have medical conditions and who are not driving, flying or operating machinery…if they are sitting around at home, it may help relieve some of their symptoms of various diseases and conditions. I do not dispute that it may have effects on those things. But for the people who want it to be legal for their daily lives…why do people not stop and think about these things if they do not even have a condition or disease that requires it?
Finally…what’s the point of the drug? Why is it necessary to sit around tripping and hallucinating or feeling euphoric all of the time? Why can’t people learn to be thankful and happy WITHOUT marijuana, drugs, alcohol, etc.? I have no problem being happy without that stuff. No, I’m not rich. No, I don’t get everything I want in life. No, my family is not perfect. No, my life does not always go as planned. No, I do not always like my job. Are any of those things reasons to try to ‘escape’ from them temporarily through smoking, drinking, etc.? Why do people feel that need? I’m certainly no better than anyone else, and my childhood growing up was not good. I had all kinds of examples of what I “could have been” to be like those people and I didn’t choose to be that way willingly, because I have common sense and see that there is no point to be that way.
Can anyone give any real insight as to why you want it to be legal? Besides false rants about how it’s supposedly ‘good’ for you and conspiracies about how the government is secretly trying to keep it from us because it’s ‘good’. I frankly see why the government made it illegal…look at the crazy stuff people did in the 70′s. AIDS and STD’s spread massively during that time, it was a period of a lot of unrest, “freedom fighters” fighting for things they couldn’t even really put into words to describe and all sorts of crazy things.
No thanks, I’m just fine without smoking it and do not need it for anything in life to be “more enjoyable” than I can have without it.
Davey – There is a difference between learning right and wrong and common sense in life that every person should have and use. You can’t go through life saying the “Don’t judge them!” If someone broke in on your mother and beat her…would you “not judge them” or would you want the judge to throw the book at them? The Bible also says that if you keep many of the laws and offend in one, you have broken them all…so don’t try that on me.

Alcohol is legal as well, yet that doesn’t make it legal to drive with it. Marijuana is far less detrimental to your motor skills than alcohol is. You may be a little bit clumsier at times, but your body goes into what is essentially auto-pilot when you’re high…if you’ve done something with regularity (such as driving), you will have no issue doing that thing after smoking. That said, it will be illegal to drive or operate machinery while under the influence of marijuana, just as it is with alcohol.
When I smoke, the only people that even notice are the veteran smokers. You really can’t even tell the difference. Weed makes everyone and everything more enjoyable, including the person that is smoking it.
Smoke it before you make a final decision on it.
EDIT: Whatever. It’s your loss.

Can Smoking marijuana or being over wieght cause COPD?
Question by Candace :]: Can Smoking marijuana or being over wieght cause COPD?
Or does only smoking cigarrettes, pollution, dust, or chemicals the only thing that causes it?
Best answer:
Answer by kittyfreek
Any kind of smoking will make COPD worse. Marijuana when smoked – contrary to many (pot smokers’) beliefs irritates and damages the lungs just as much as cigarettes or sticking your head over a bonfire.
Being overweight puts more pressure on the lungs too because, to put it simply, excess body fat (both internal and external) can compress the lungs and there is the added exertion of carrying extra weight – it’s hard enough to get oxygen around the body as it is. (Imagine having to carry an extra bag of shopping for example.)

Why should marijuana be legalized?
Question by []: Why should marijuana be legalized?
Why should an extremely addictive drug that causes lung cancer and brain damage be legalized? I can’t see any non-users supporting legalization so it’s just the stoners who want it legal so they can get away with destroying their health and polluting society. I hate pot smokers and I don’t think they do anything for society, so they might as well be rounded up and killed.

What are your views on marijuana?
Question by Kali Mist: What are your views on marijuana?
Specifically using it for medicinal purposes, considering that it has many, many medicinal benefits (my favorite being that it actually decreases the risk of lung cancer, prevents cancer from spreading throughout the body, and also decreases the size of lung cancer tumors).
So what are your views on using marijuana as opposed to using a pharmaceutical drug that is most likely much more expensive, and probably has harmful side effects?
Just an excuse to use marijuana? Are you that blinded by propaganda?
Marijuana has SO MANY benefits! Why don’t you look up all the medicinal benefits of marijuana before you come off as ignorant and uneducated.
And of course cigarettes have killed far more people.
Do you know how many people have died as a direct result of marijuana? Zero.
The only way marijuana ‘kills’ is the war on drugs. Legalize it and we won’t have the violent cartels.

Question by : Are there any non-smokers who think marijuana should be legalized?
Of course there aren’t any, and I’ll tell you why.
People who don’t smoke marijuana know how harmful and addictive it is. It causes lung cancer and brain damage, and it is so addictive that it is impossible to quit. Therefore, they are so disgusted by others who do it that they think it should remain illegal and anyone who smokes it should be thrown in jail.
Every single person who believes marijuana should be legalized is a user of it.

Marijuana: the Gateway Drug?
Question by Sam B: Marijuana: the Gateway Drug?
Now…is it just me, or am I part of a huge group of people who think its absurd to pin a negative name like “Gateway Drug” to Marijuana? The only reason its a gateway drug is because the government puts it at the same level as crack and cocaine and meth – then when someone smokes weed and is PERFECTLY FINE, they say “well crack isn’t that much worse”. In fact, Marijuana when used properly can be healthy. Vaporized Cannabis (without tar or other carcinogens) releases THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol) which has been proven to neutralize Leukemia Cells and prevent lung cancer.
PLEASE: SOMEONE GIVE ME A GOOD REASON THAT MARIJUANA IS BAD (OR AT LEAST BAD ENOUGH TO BE ILLEGAL), BECAUSE HONESTLY, THE GOVERNMENT JUST CANT TAX IT = ONLY REASON.

Is using Marijuana a sin?
Question by redskins superbowl 09 baby!!: Is using Marijuana a sin?
So, Ive answerd a couple questions regarding weed not being a sin and its legality and whatnot and I just want to know Is my reasoning about weed decent if not 100% correct or is this all nonsense like my mother told me.
my answers below:
In regards to the law in the bible it says: Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s; and unto God the things that are God’s. – Matthew 22:21
Marijuana is one of God’s things, so render that unto God, not Caesar.
To the people who say SMOKING weed is a sin beacause it harms Gods temple, that is arguable because smoking anything, not just weed, has harmful effects, such as lung cancer and such. But smoking weed will never lead anyone to any type of caner or disease. So while smoking it can harm your body, it really doesn’t do too much damage. Why? because God created us and He loves us. But just because smoking weed is the most common use of the plant doesnt mean that other uses are terrible. Like eating it. Marijuana is a herb, and like every other herb it can be eatin with no harmful effects. By eating marijuana you get that “high” (way more high!!) and you do not harm your body, because no smoke enters your lungs, depleting any chance of harming God’s temple. And, on judgment day do you think that the use of God’s plant, whether legal or illegal, is going to send you to hell???
back when weed was legal (less than 100 years ago) do you think anybody who used or knew of the plant EVER in a million years thought that it was a sin. No, cuz thats just silly. Weed got its sinful reputation through the same process that the Jews received hatred from. Government Propaganda (and it was around the same time to, the 1930′s – 40′s) are Jewish people terrible because the Nazi Germany said so. NO. Sp is weed terrible because our govt. says so. NO thats silly. Jews are God’s people they were hated and Weed is God’s plant and it was and is (to a degree) hated.
God said, “Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth….to you it will be for MEAT…. And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. (Genesis 1:29-31)
1 Timothy 4 (King James Version)
1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from MEATS, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.
4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
5 For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
Now, we re arguably in or entering “latter times” verse 2 says “Speaking lies in hypocrisy”, marijuana was undoubtedly illigalized based on lies of hypocrisy
and the people Speaking lies in hypocrisy are forbidding certain people from marrying… and commanding people to abstain from MEATS, and in Genesis, MEATS are every herb bearing seed. Not very herb bearing seed except marijuana…
I believe that, when received in thanksgiving it is absolutely acceptable
God is perfect
man is not.
Man made booze
God made pot!

If you were that religious, and concerned about whether God accepts it you would not want a high from an illegal drug. It is a way of escaping from troubles in life and that is cowardice. The aim of chirstians is to strive to be like Jesus and not to accept that humans are not perfcet and never will be so therefore it’s ok to do things you KNOW ARE WRONG! maijuana makes you act in a way you would not when sober just like any illegal drug, therfore you are not in control of your actions, and have no moral guidelines, which not only would make you a bad christian but a bad human being. Don’t escape from being the true, insightful person God made you to be, but thrive in who you are naturally and try to abstain from things that make you feel high, or similar. Jesus excersised this to the extent of going weithout food or water for 40 days resisting Temptation.
Don’t support the black market of the drug trade as the more young people will get invilved and destrot their lives.
God and the Bible is against addiction, it is a sin

Why does the US goverment refuse to legalize marijuana (cannabis)?
Question by URANUS: Why does the US goverment refuse to legalize marijuana (cannabis)?
I’m just wondering, how much longer will it take for this country to legalize marijuana use. No, im not a desperate pot head wanting to get my herb legally, I’m saying this because it’s hypocritical that Alcohol and Tobacco is legal but Marijuana is not. Why do we allow the sell of drugs that have a billion side effects but we don’t allow Marijuana, which only side effect will be munchies?
I just cant grasp why marijuana is so socially unaccepted and seemed as such an “Evil” thing. It’s nothing more than a plant that god put in earth and that hundreds of years back natives discovered the effects that it can have once smoked. It does not cause cancer, instead, accoding to studies done by Harvard University, some of the elements found in marijuana can actually prevent lung cancer. Furthermore, tobacco and alcohol are far more lethal.
Now, I smoke marijuana often. Probably 4 days a week. I am a full time student and my grades are no lower than B’s. I am a distinguished student, part of my school’s National Honor Society, and I have been granted a 20,000 scholarship for my academic achievements. So for those who say marijuana makes you dumb, I’d like to say otherwise. I know how to use weed responsibly, I smoke with my friends in safe environements where we can hang out and just relax. Pretty much like drinking beer.
So what will it take for us to legalize cannabis???

Hey everyone! What are some beneficial effects of Marijuana. I am doing to write a book.?
Question by : Hey everyone! What are some beneficial effects of Marijuana. I am doing to write a book.?
And don’t say that medical marijuana is a gimmick because I know that it has many healthy effects on the body. 1. It is used in cancer patients to increase appetite due to chemo therapy. That is a fact, weed simply makes people hungry. 2. It is a treatment for glaucoma. Marijuana has been proven to decrease interocular pressure in the eye by up to 45 percent. (I would much rather have people smoke weed than go blind because of glaucoma). This was concluded by different studies in universities throughout the U.S. 3. Marijuana treats AIDS patients not only to increase appetite but also to make the patient feel better. This is because the plant has known euphoriants in trace amounts. These euphoriants have been rendered harmless and are in amounts of less than 0.0002 % of the chemical make up of the plant. 4. The plant has been used in anorexic patients to increase appetite; therefore, it promotes healthier living. 5. Anti anxiety is another use of herb. When smoked in small amounts it remedies symptoms. 6. It is a major treatment for pain. In a study done by multiple universities in California and Boston professors have allowed patients the choice to take Marinol to help relieve pain. Approximately forty patients participated in the study. The study compared the use of smoked marijuana and codein (as you know an opiate derived from the papaver somniferum, or poppy plant). The study showed 20 mg of marinol were comparable to 60 mg of codein for pain relieve symptoms. In my opinion marijuana is much safer because it does not have the risk of dependancy of codein. (opiates can be extremely addictive). 7. It is also a mild anti depressant because if the euphoriants it posseses. But it does not run the risk of dependancy, and overdose that drugs like Prozac, Zoloft and others have. Also, these other drugs may increase the rate of suicide in children under eighteen and even in few adults. Many of these drugs have later shown to have unwanted, harmful side effects such as heart attack and cancer.
8. Marijuana has antioxidants and antibacterials such as the chemical a terpinol (a chemical known to act as an antioxidant and antibaacterial)
Thank you for reading my page I just have some more important points I wish to make.
– Marijuana is not a gateway drug. People just choose to use marijuana before they try other
drugs because it is the easy to find. Many weed smokers only use weed. That is why it is the
most popular illegal substance and not cocain, and meth.
– Marinol only contains THC one of the pyscoactives in weed it does not contain the other helpful
substances
– Im sure marijuana does have some mild effects on small amounts of people, but so do all drugs.
– Regardless of if you believe pot is good or bad people will do it anyway. If it is legal then people
it will be safe to use because it will be well regulated. People who wish to smoke it will grow it;
hence, there will be no chance that the marijuana will be laced with anything else.
– It has not been illegal until the 1930s but people have used it since before Christ for ship sails,
clothing, paper, rope, food (the have a very pure source of protein).
– The actual smoke can be bad for the lungs, but it is not as bad as cigarette smoke. Tobacco
produces more tar, and tobacco smokers inhale much more smoke simply because they smoke
more than a pot smoker.
– It has so many benifits, yet the FDA does not want us to know about these because the
government would not be able to sell all of their drugs. How is that for government health care?
– That is why every federal govnt. study on the issue is fake.

Q&A: Explain to me HOW marijuana is dangerous?
Question by : Explain to me HOW marijuana is dangerous?
Please elaborate, some guy on youtube made me furious when he spurted the following things revolving around
-Addiction
-Lung Cancer
-Famous people that have died
-Kills brain cells
Now my opinion of his “reasons”(I know this has been discussed before)
Addiction- Unlike tobacco, you can’t get physically addicted to this ‘drug’. I have come across one or two people that smoke EVERY DAY and say that they are addicted. What most people don’t realize? It’s that it’s an emotional dependence. Addicts on tobacco are clearly addicted showing that they want to stop, but they can’t. Pot ‘addicts’ only say they are addicted, because they enjoy it so much they don’t believe they can stop. EVERY person I know that smoke weed can stop and have stopped every time they needed to per say for a job.
Lung Cancer- Recent studies first found that Marijuana smoke is basically not harmful. Why? Tobacco smoke for example, carries res and tar with it, sticking to the lungs, this is what causes lung cancer. Marijuana smoke is nothing but smoke and THC(unless of course, someone smokes res, which is stupid). Now I’m not saying that Marijuana smoke is not harmful at all(because after all, it’s still smoke), I’m saying that the damage that is done by it is little to none as NO CASE OF LUNG CANCER HAS EVER BEEN LINKED WITH MARIJUANA.
Famous people that died- This one was just funny to read but very irritating. The famous people that died, has been deceased due to drugs like heroine, and mostly prescription drugs. Needless to say but NO DEATH has ever been related to Marijuana.
Kills brain cells- this has been proved wrong scientifically, I don’t feel like going into a whole scientific explanation of how the THC receptors act in the brain, but I can give you one fact about myself.
I have smoking since I was 15 and am now going to pre-med in Grenada. I flourished in High School and College as Straight A’s and occasional B’s were my main path.
This isn’t about why it should or should not be legal. Not even the case of “ITS A GATEWAY DRUG” is allowed here due to the fact that that theory lies solely upon the individual.
What I’m talking about is the straight harmful effects that anybody can list with scientific proof or even website proof for that matter to justify your answer.
Thank you

Exposing the Myth of Smoked Medical Marijuana / Anti-Marijuana PSA Video
Exposing the Myth of Smoked Medical Marijuana / PSA VideoExposing the Myth of Smoked Medical Marijuana. Q. Does marijuana have any medical value? Any determination of a drug’s valid medical use must be based on the best available science undertaken by medical professionals. The Institute of Medicine conducted a comprehensive study in 1999 to assess the potential health benefits of marijuana and its constituent cannabinoids. The study concluded that smoking marijuana is not recommended for the treatment of any disease condition. In addition, there are more effective medications currently available. For those reasons, the Institute of Medicine concluded that there is little future in smoked marijuana as a medically approved medication. Advocates have promoted the use of marijuana to treat medical conditions such as glaucoma. However, this is a good example of more effective medicines already available. According to the Institute of Medicine, there are six classes of drugs and multiple surgical techniques that are available to treat glaucoma that effectively slow the progression of this disease by reducing high intraocular pressure. In other studies, smoked marijuana has been shown to cause a variety of health problems, including cancer, respiratory problems, increased heart rate, loss of motor skills, and increased heart rate. Furthermore, marijuana can affect the immune system by impairing the ability of T-cells to fight off infections, demonstrating that marijuana can do …

learn the facts if you smoke cigarettes and hate marijuana your a hypocrite and a half because cigarettes have more then 3000 chemicals in them, if you drink Coffee everyday your a hypocrite cause believe it or not caffeine is worst for you then marijuana, if you take Tylenol your at 100% more risk of dying than smoking a joint and proven fact will back me up here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Drug_danger_and_dependence.png
Now someone has told me wikipedia can be edited by any fool right well it just so happens that the chart above is connected to ALL DRUGS on wikipedia so i have reason to believe that the drug chart above is right and seeing that the thousands of people who probably see it everyday probably doctors and scientists being some of them don’t change it you cant really doubt it right?
im just trying to stop the lying my mom used to tell me basically your a piece of **** for smoking marijuana but when i asked her she didn’t have any facts.. right at least marijuana can kill you which is wrong by the way you know etc im simply just trying to stop the criticism and this is way im doing it if you have a problem with that I DON’T CARE
do you know how many diseases it could help with vs the one (Cardiovascular disease)
that it may/may not cause? Glaucoma, Diabetes, Aids ,Breast Cancer and more did you know that it can reduce severe nausea, vomiting? did you know THC is an effective anti-emetic for patients receiving cancer chemotherapy? did you know Physicians reported success in treating stomach pain and gastric distress, psychosis, chronic cough, gonorrhea and neuralgia with marijuana?
do you think marijuana is worst used recreational or alcohol, its alcohol weather you like to believe it or not last time I checked alcohol was worst with motor vehicle crashes and about the dependency caffeine has just as much dependency as marijuana but caffeine is more lethal i almost a damn sure you drink Coffee, and about the impaired respiratory function, traffic exhaust can cause that so in my eyes is really no concern of mine what im trying to prove is marijuana is not that bad
actually NEWER STUDIES 2010 to be exact say marijuana is NOT as bad as cigarettes and is NOT A GATEWAY DRUG
CIGARETTES ARE ACTUALLY MORE CONSIDERED A GATEWAY DRUG NEW STUDYS IN 2010 SAY
and actually marijuana has not been connected to lung cancer at all EVER and people that say marijuana messes with the brain kills braincells liars they scientifically never found any connections with marijuana and brain damage OF ANY KIND

Wouldn’t society be BETTER with the legalization of marijuana?
Question by : Wouldn’t society be BETTER with the legalization of marijuana?
I think it’s been made pretty clear by statistics that there is not one death ever attributed exclusively to the use of marijuana. It’s less harmful then alcohol, there has NEVER been one case of lung cancer or any cancer caused by marijuana in the 10,000 year recorded history of the “drug” and if you can prove me wrong on any of this, please, do so, but show your source. Don’t just throw out your non-sense talk. It’s doesn’t cause brain damage or anything of that nature at all.
And also, the gateway theory. The only reason it’s a gateway to other drugs is because of the black market dealers pressuring you to buy stronger drugs, in that sense there would be less abuse of cocaine and the like if it was legal. But even now only 1 in 100 marijuana smokers will try cocaine.
And it CANNOT be tied into violent crimes or crimes in general, it makes you pacifist. The first two prints of the declaration of independence was written on hemp for God’s sake. Marijuana is a multi BILLION dollar business in the US alone, you know how much money the government could make on taxes if it were legal and help to stimulate our economy? I don’t get it, the USA would be better, not worse if marijuana was legal, hemp farms could start again, our tax dollars wouldn’t have to be spent on jailing people that did absolutely NOTHING wrong. What are your thoughts?
High drivers are actually concentrated, safe and even paranoid about driving good. I’m pretty sure you need to look at some of the statistics for drunk drivers vs. high drivers. High drivers is about the same as death by marijuana: ZERO.
There were 16,885 alcohol-related fatalities in 2005 – 39 percent of the total traffic fatalities for the year. Dept of Transportation

I started smoking a year ago, since then I have became an honors student, I got a part time job that pays $ 850 a month and only $ 100 is used on weed, I have made a lot more friends (both those who do and don’t smoke) and I’m overall much more happy and social than I have ever been.
I researched health effects and this is what I found, it does cause short term memory loss and paranoia (I don’t have these problems), it helps prevent and fight lung cancer, it has even cut the size of lung tumors in half. Here are the studies.

So then I turned to religion and as it turns out Jesus smoked Hashish, another form of marijuana. Also the name Christ is derived from him smoking.
There is nothing pathetic about it, I have fun high or not, I hang out with friends, go for walks, play games, even discuss philosophy. So why would someone have a problem with that?
by the way, no one has ever died of a marijuana overdose, though deaths have been attributed to being high they are usually scapegoats. A violent pothead is like a man with a vagina, you don’t see much of them.

Question by maxine: How bad can Marijuana really be for you?
Besides the smoking part because that does cause lung cancer, how is it bad for you?
If not smoked everyday marijuana can be a great reliever and it can help you sleep too.
And how did it become illegal?
What are its laws in Massachusetts?
Don’t even bother if your answer is ‘pot is sooo bad for you dont do drugs.’ But anything else is appreciated.

It makes you less attentive. If pot were legal, there would be more car accidents.
