    Laws - View Law: POSSESSION AND USE OF MARIJUANA


    Possession and Use of Marijuana

    Possession and use of marijuana is either a felony or a misdemeanor. Possession of marijuana that you intend to sell is a felony. Possession and use of marijuana can result in probation, attending classes on the harmful effects of drugs, and performing community service. (ARS 13-3405). You may also lose your driving privileges.

    An adjudication on a marijuana charge goes on your record and can follow you throughout your life. For example, a candidate for a U.S. Supreme Court appointment was disqualified after admitting he had used marijuana as a student.

    Marijuana... Exactly why is it illegal anyways? I have asked this question to probably a hundred or more people and I have never, not even once got a strait answere. More than 400,000 Americans die from diseases related to cigarette smoking each year. More than 150,000 Americans die from alcohol abuse each year, but in 10,000 years no one has ever died from the use of marijuana. So again i ask what is the problem with pot?? It impares but has no long term effects. People should revote on the law that was passed in the 30's on a basis of pot being "the most violent drug ammerica has seen."

    Marijauna is a lot less harmfull than alchahol in many ways like its not physically addictive, its not a deprressant, and a bunch of other stuff (products sold in stores would also be carefully monitored by the law so it would actually be even better that it is right now for you) i think if only one othe them can be legal it should be weed. every one in the world would be a lot less stuck up and more relaxed, maybe then we could start to improve on stuff
