    I don't think marijuana should be illegal because i have done some reserching and i have found out that this drus is less addictive and dangerous than lets say cigaetts, alcohol, or cocain etc... It has also been proven to help relieve migrains, and nausea. So i think if the goverment is alowing cigretts to be sold on the market than marijauna should be just as legal too.

    Marijuana is not bad. It helps you when u need it. It makes you have a good time. Cigs kill so may people each yeah and marijuana has not killed a single person. Many people who are intoxicated and driving kill people. They also get many different diseases. Alcohol impairs your judgement so you don't know what you are doing. Marijauna doesn't.

    Half of ya'll don't understand. It's simple, yes "Mary J" is a drug. Why? Not many people know, some claim to know... but they don't. Why isn't cigerettes a drug, or alcohol? Alcohol has the same short term effects as pot. And "Cig's" kill people, look it up how many people have died from pot? And how many from cigerettes? Yeah that's what I thought, I have seen my grandparents die from lung cancer and so on... Why? Yeah, that'd be Cigs... not pot, wait don't they give pot to cancer victims.

    i'm not a kid, but am at work and have stumbled into this site. Well yankee chums weed wont kill you, probably wont even make you ill, as for friends made smoking, these tend to much more durable than those made elsewhere. You'll find I'm right. However, it does tend to make you a tad more thoughtful, lackadaisical and on occasions even languid. Anyway best of luck.
