    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 that weed is the best thing ever i mean its not addicting its not bad for you and its the best smelling,tasting plant ever known. Weed definetly needs to be legal if it was legal maybe i could make a car payment But as for all the other messed up drugs those should stay illegal

    continue: but anyways i think that all these kids when it is legalized, there gonna smoke it comming to school and you cant learn anything while your high so then there gonna be the scum of the earth then while people who really make a living for them selves has to pay taxes for their food stamps because they are just gonna sit home and smoke weed and trade in their food stamps for it. yeah thats real smart. just because it gets rid of your problems for 20min dont mean that they are gonna go away. everyone has problems GET OVER YOUR SELVES! I mean think for real do you all wanna lok like those

    OKay first off, weed should stay behind bars. People would fight over the stuff, that is just another reason to have hate in the world. You lose brian cells by smoking it and your right its like a cigg, but it has the same effect, nothing but negative! I hate smoking in general. people say they smoke because they have alot of stress well you dont know me and i dont know yall but i bet half the people who say legalize it dont even know what stress is. and by the way the person that wrote that it helps you concentrate, you cant learn anything while your high!

    If you wanna live a healthy life style, fine don't smoke pot quit your complaining go eat your low carb diet. I know weed is a drug and it might be bad for me but I don't care. Go breathe your precious oxygen and quit bothering with your stupid anti weed stuff. I am so sick of everyone talking bad about it you have no room to talk unless you have smoked it yourself. Now obey me and go legalize it then smoke it. Thank you
