If people believe that marijuana helps their medical issues then they should allow people to indulge in those remedies. It is criminal that we do not encourage "science" to fully investigate the medical usages of pot.

Cigarettes and alcohol are much stronger gateway drugs [than marijuana].

Marijuana does not lead to harder drugs. People will get bored of the pot and move on down the line to stronger drugs to get the high they need. They either stay with pot or quit.

The war on drugs has been a social and political failure. We need to encourage sport and stop encouraging drugs.

Marijuana is not addictive. People are the addicts and they will find a substance or a belief that will feed the addiction they need to make their day go away. Meaning one looks for a substance that allows them not to live with who and what they really are. To stop addiction we must treat the patient and stop blaming everyone and everything else but the abuser.

Marijuana allows one to take a breath and see the realities of a situation without the news beating their interpretation into our brains. Pot relaxes you.

Pot must be legalized as it grows in nature. It is natural and organic too. It is part of the hemp world and it is criminal that we do not use hemp to facilitate our lifestyle. From paper to soap to clothes to anything, we can think of for the most part.
