I would not support the legalization of weed because I think drugs, including currently legal drugs, are destructive by nature. Also, in my expierience people who openly flaunt their enjoyment of weed usually wind up being annoying wastes of space. Still, if weed were to become legal overnight, it wouldn’t really bother me too much as it seems to be on par with alcohol.

 

If we do keep it illegal, we should find a new way to discourage its use. The whole “just say no” thing kinda fell through.

 

even if it were to become legal, that doesn’t mean you can’t discourage its use. Look at all the tobacco commercials. All I’m saying is there should be the option, I don’t think the government should have authority over punishing people for health problems, because when you boil it down marijuana, tobacco, and alcohol abuse are just health problems, not some crime against society.
