If not legalize just decriminalize it. Seriously.
It's a plant.
All you people that think it's dangerous and a dirty crime need to go do some research on the actual plant. People are ill-educated on it all around.. and being that it's classified with cocaine and heroin..(even though it does less damage to you and your brain long term and short term than alcohol..) Doesn't help.
I have never seen a man smoke weed and go kill someone in an accident or go home and beat his wife.
I have seen a drunk man beat his wife, I have seen a drunk man get in a fight at a bar, I have seen a drunk woman try to jump off a building, I have seen a tweeker pull a gun on someone..I have seen crackheads hit their children (and I am not from a bad part of town or history) the worst I have seen a stoner do, is order pizza while playing video games in his boxers. Lack of productivity is the only argument there.
which of these is less dangerous?
It is the effect on society that people are worried about, right?
We have bigger fish to fry, it's called Meth, hell, alcohol abuse is worse than someone smoking weed.
I hate alcohol because of what I have seen it do to people...and what I have seen those people do.. yet IT is legal..
So lets stop wasting time and money on this topic, pass it, test it, if it doesn't work reverse the law..
You will never know if you don't try..
