    I really think that your wrong about marijuana because it could and will impare your judgment so you wont know whats happening or what you are doing it also kills your brain each puff you take kills millions of brain cells so this drug is just as bad as the rest and I dont think it should be legal so that every body could do it.

    marijuana is a drug which must be used responsibly. One thing that is preventing anything along the lines of legalization from taking place is the "stoner" steriotype. Behind this steriotype, however, is some truth. There are many people in this world with very addictive personalities that would make them succeptable to marijuana addiction. I agree that it's not as bad as alcohol or cigarettes or most other drugs for that matter but it's still a drug that has the potential to cause serious problems in people's lives, people seem to forget that. IT can make you lazy with prolongued use, it

    I think that cannabis is not bad because it relefs stress and can help with many diseases and i think it helps me with my welding. i think it is not as bad has having a fag because it opens the broncles and lets more oxygen in your lungs and clears smog what is the product of smoking tobaco.

    I have to agree with most of the peeps on this page. Marijuana is not as dangerous as most people think it is. People need to sit back and look at the facts, a 85 percent rate shows that most people have smoked marijuana at one time in their life. Not because they wanted to, it was just that marijuana was most likely the first drug that person was offered. He/She is most likely to try smoking marijuana first, then trying any other harsh drug such as Crack/Cocaine, or Heroin, or Methamphetamine. The legal system needs to notice that.
