stance on marijuana use/legalization for recreational purposes

[itsmeJonB]

I'm curious what is your personal opinion on the use or legalization of marijuana

I threw in the legalization part because for moral purposes I've noticed a lot of people say "marijuana is illegal therefore it is wrong".
So what is your stance on it and most importantly why?

 

[BornReady]

I voted to legalize it. I think the "war on drugs" has failed. It's time we stop making criminal behavior so profitable. Besides, what people do to their own bodies isn't the government's business.

I don't believe it should be legalized but I would be lying if i said i havent smoked it...

It will probably surprise some of you to see me say this, but I think it should be legalized. First and foremost, of all the possible intoxicants one could get their hands on, marijuana is the most natural and least toxic one that I know of. Second, decriminalizing it would free up wasted time and taxpayers money prosecuting people for possession of marijuana. Third, tax that shit along w/ prositution and clear up the national debt!!! LOL

I could care less one way or the other..

It's less harmful on the body than alcohol.

 

[Darrell]

Legalize it. It's not worse than alcohol.

I'm honestly tired of hearing that....

 

[Darrell]

I'm honestly tired of hearing that....

Why? I am honestly curious. Do you have evidence supporting otherwise?

No but it's like a skipping record... you hear it enough and you want it to stop.

Because every false statement about the harms of marijuana aren't a more obnoxious skipping record?

[itsmeJonB]

Thing is I know you're against it, believe me I fucking know you're against it
You just never seem to give a reason why

I don't have one... and i don't need too...
If you grow up around a parent who ingrains in you that all illegal drugs are bad then you sorta lean towards that view...
My grandfather was a cop...
I'm not against weed...
I'm just against legalization....

 

[Dana]

You have no idea how often I get lectured about alcohol and my family's issue with being that my grandfather, and both my uncles are alcoholics.
