Question: Is smoking weed (marijuana) legal in some States?
Answer: No. Every State, from Alabama, Colorado, Kentucky to Vermont, including Arizona and every State in between, has enacted various criminal penalties for the possession, use, cultivation, transportation and distribution, of marijuana, including even the smallest of quantities.
Arizona punishes possession of amounts less than two pounds as a class six felony with fines between $750 and $150,000 and jail or prison time from six months to a year and a half.
A few States have decriminalized marijuana use and possession in small amounts (N. Carolina and California for example) but even there, its still illegal.

i think weed should be legal because tho peoplem would do it they do anyway and if it was legal less people would smoke because alot of people do it because of the appeal of it being illegal so if u took that away not as many would smoke it. And its not that big of a deal its natural and if cigaretts are legal and thats all chemicals and rat poisen y cant weed, a natural herb be illegal. it makes no sense to me and everyone where i live. if anyone else is in agreement please comment this coment!!!
