>You people didn't even listen to whoever it was who

>should be illegal, all of which were used to
>originally make it illegal have been proven wrong by

>vaporizer? Its 30% more effective and its not bad for
>you. Marijuana is THE safest drug known to mankind.
>Childrens tylenol is more dangerous than Marijuana.
>For every drug they have this thing called an LD50
>(The number of times the reccomended dose it takes to
>be lethal) Marijuana, does not have an LD50, the
>number is simply too big to possibaly take in that
>mauch (you would have to some how smoke about 40,000
>pounds in 15 minutes, which is impossible). The only
>reason why it is still illegal is because of
>government corruption and people who have been

>dangerous drug. Why is the government corrupt over
>this issue you ask? Well there are a number of reasons
>just as that other guy stated a few. One is, when Pot
>was legal, it was very cheap to buy, even if it were
>taxed to hell. Whats so special about its relativly
>cheapness? In order to be happy, so many people now a

>a good happy life, is to be rich. People who smoke
>know this is not true, you can live a worry free life
>with a average or low paying job and still be happy.
>Government gets a lot of money from rich people, the
>government also says "Marijuana makes a less
>productive nation" Thats right, your here to work for
>them. If weeds legal, your happy, you don't need to
>work your ass off to be happy, the government doesn't
>like that. Also, the cigarette companies pay the
>government money to keep it illegal. Why? Tobacco is
>hard to grow and can only be grown in the south.
>Marijuana is a weed and can be grown in Alaska in the
>summer, or in anybodys house. If anybody smokes
>cigarettes or drinks alcohol, you should support
>legalizing pot. Cigarettes and alcohol are not only
>much worse for you, they can be very addicting.
>Marijuana is a schedule 1 drug in the US,which
>basically means its very addicting, you can die from
>it, has no medical use, and has a hih potential for
>abuse. None of those requirments fit Marijuana except
>for a potential for abuse, but if you even did use it
>everyday, as long as you don't smoke it, its virtually
>harmless. Cigarettes and alcohol both fit a schedule 1
>drug perfectly, weird huh? By the way, Marijuana is
>decriminalized in a little place called Ann Arbor
>Michigan. So don't go saying its not legal and never
>will be. Also here in Michigan we had a vote on if it
>should be legal, 33% voted yes, the other third didn't
>want it legalized because of all the lies they thought
>were facts about it, and the other third didn't know
>so they just put down no. Luckily, these supposeded
>"facts" about Marijuana have been proven wrong and
>drug prevention programs like DARE have been begun to
>be critisized about spreading lies to little kids.
>This is dangerous to do, if you tell these kids oh its
>gonna make you retarted, your gonna get addicted from
>the very first time you use it, what is this kid gonna
>think when he tries it and finds out they were just
>lies? Then whats the kid gonna think when someone
>offers him to try some Heroin which really is bad for
>you? They will probaly remember how the lied about
>weed and think "Well they lied before, I know they
>were probaly lieing about this heroin stuff too"
>Chances are he or she is gonna get addicted and fucked
>up! There are things people should be more concerned
>with than somebody using a peice of a plant to feel
>good. We as people do soooo many different things that
>are soooooo much more dangerous than pot. Drug laws
>don't help anything, it just makes them worst. People
>now a days just can't understand that, if pot were
>legalized, we would all see positive effects
>instantly. There is a insane amount of tax money that
>goes into supporting its banning its not even funny.
>Not to mention it would be sin taxed, our farmers
>could grow it and make amazing profit, its easy to
>grow, it grows fast, it can withstand poor growing
>conditions, every single part of the plant can be
>used, and they can harvest just the buds without
>killing the plant if they want to. These are all
>facts, i'm not bullshiting just because I smoke. Like
>I said before, all the facts that once supported it

>cannot keep it illegal much longer, they have not one
>good reason why. And now much of these anti-drug
