Your Opinion: Legalize Marijuana?

[Romara]

Just my opinion, but I think weed should be legalized. I mean plenty of people already use it and I honestly have not heard of anyone OD'ing on weed. I think I would prefer people to be addicted to weed than crack and so on.

[Rastov]

I thought it was a good idea...until they started talking about putting a Tax on it  :-

You dirty libertarian >_>

[dmalsbury]

Legalize! YES!

[dmalsbury]

against votes-votes of a bunch of ignorant IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
for votes-votes of a bunch of stoners, cool!

[mommagoes]

in response to all the people that liken pot heads to drunk drivers, there is one flaw with that comparison. a person can get drunk and then get into a car and crash and kill a bunch of people, and yes a person can get high and do the exact same thing. but... the person that gets high usually has no motivation to get into a car and do anything. most people that get high will sit their asses on the couch with some chips and a soda and watch tv. and in that instance, the only person being hurt is the stoner with the expanding waistline!

[iitzzyra]

YES

Legalize it in a proper way. Issue the prescription to the right people that can really use it as a medicine, like me and I'm glad I have my prescription. It is not addicting! It helps me a lot when I'm in pain since I can't take any pain medicine due to my liver problems. It helps a friend of mine who has ADHD and it keeps him focus, which is really good! (He's a pain in the butt, lol) I know it helps a lot with people going through chemotherapy. It is just LIKE most common medicine over-the-counter or not that may cause dizziness and should not use any machinery or drive. yes to cannabis

Lets see, don't we have enough fatalities with drinking and driving, lets let everyone get stoned, getting the munchies going to taco bell, falling asleep behind the wheel,and killing a million people. Yeah, not, then look at all the kids in high school stoned out of their mind, who will want to get good grades, oh and the surgeon that works on you, should he smoke pot too?

[mommadixon]

I used to smoke it but I don't anymore. But I do not belive in making it legal. do people not know the negative effects of what will happen if this happens. We are already an obese country, people would just keep getting bigger and bigger from all the munchies. And not to mention the crime rate will go up tremendously. We already have enough people getting killed and raped now. Plus the gang memebers out here will go wild. You would also have to release anyone in prison or jail that is in their for marijuania charges cause it would not be right to keep them in there if it is legal. I t just is stupid and the president is crazy.

[JessieKateRose]

I'm all for it being legalized. It's not hurting anyone. Feeling a little lazy and hungry when you do it isn't much hurting you, and it isn't hurting anyone else.
They at least need to not punish so harshly for it. They found a tiny little bag on my boyfriend and he's had to pay thousands of dollars in court fees, and he's a minor. That's *bleep* ridiculous.

100% agree with you!!! You know if you are a child molester you get less time than a person caught with a large quantity of marijuana!! Now that is FUC**D up!!! I don't understand the world and perhaps I never will. But to me a person of such small nature as hurting and taking a child's innocents away should serve life without parole. Its just a stupid ignorant way of life that a pot smoker would serve way more time in prison than a sick twisted person and how people in our government want to make this into such a bigger deal than it truly is with marijuana. Ignorance in America is such a blindfold on the faces of so many!!!

Yeah, this is disgusting.

Also, my boyfriend was smoking every day and still finding time to excersize. He's like ten pounds underweight. It's not going to make us all fat. 9_9

[sh33ma]

definitely

[mommagoes]

dude if they get desperate enouf to legalize drugs then where does that put us?

scary thought

....."dude"......like wow man, totally bogus, like hang ten and calibunga, gonna hang out and catch some waves all day then head back to the folks house and wax my surfboard. Rightous man.

   thank you mc1962! i can always count on you for a laugh! 

[JessieKateRose]

Why does everyone say that the only ones who want it legalized are potheads? I've never even tried it and I think if you would deny a cancer patient marijuana you need go to die in a fire. There are no negative effects to giving them marijuana. Not a singe one.

So let's just let them stay nauseous. Let them not be able to eat. Let them be in pain. Let them be miserable.

[dmalsbury]

legalising drugs (weed and everything else) would put the drug cartels out of business in Mexico. That is how to combat those criminals! Come on Texas! Get with it!

[dmalsbury]

We are currently funding the drug cartels in Mexico by buying their "drugs" AND providing the guns and ammunition for their criminal activity. Let's stop all that kind of stuff! If it is legal own "drugs" in the US, there will be no incentive to buy from them and they would shrink and go away. problem solved! Come on people! Think!

[Kelligirl1998]

I think they should for Medical reasons.  Having seen my mother in law and my own mom go through very painful cancers.   I wish they could at least make it legal for medical.
