 printer friendly version
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.

smoking pot by no means makes you lazy or stupid, the person is already that way wheter they smoke or not. It should defintely be legal, and they should outlaw alcohol. How many people get high then senselessly beat their wives and kids or kill someone in a rage? It is all to common with alcohol. There is no proof that marajuana is physically addictive, and being someone who smokes and quits at will, I vouch for that. It is not hard at all to quit, and I also am no bum. I work in a pharmacy making $10.75 an hour and am very responsible. Obviously most people against pot have never tried it.
