It may me old but why legalize Marijuana?

Question

I'm British wanting to move to Colorado
It may be old but why legalize something so dangerous

Answer 1

1. Its not really that bad

2. They would make a lot of money off of taxes

3, It would keep smokers out of prison and make space for the real criminals

4. It would keep "gangsters" from killing each other off of drug sales("slanging" in the wrong territory).

Answer 2

Everybody else is lacking the point right here. The large difference between the feasible new breakthroughs of cannabinoid use for treating Alzheimers and the various makes use of for affliction/nausea remedy is that the newer stuff entails virtually possibly lessening the affect of a sickness itself as an alternative than easing signs quickly. This is a vastly major difference! Regrettably, many folks refuse to look how terrible persistent soreness and nausea can also be, and they're reluctant to look comfort of those symptoms as enough of a 'professional' to counteract the 'cons' of marijuana use. Seeing upgrades in cognitive function and memory is totally distinct, and much more likely to be obvious as an actual purpose for legalization, if science relatively manages to seek out such effects in people.

Answer 3

This is how I see it...



In the UK, there is a massive usage of cannabis. It's illegal but so what? Policemen, doctors, solicitors, paramedics etc use it. A good reason to make it legal is to raise revenue for our country because it will be taxed, of course.... I don't believe this will make the drug any more expensive for the end user as there will be no risk factor for suppliers and cultivators or smugglers which will bring the price of the raw product down dramatically... Like most other things in the UK, it's the tax that makes it expensive....

It isn't dangerous at all. It helps people with chronic pain better than anything. Millions of people use it regardless of it being legal or not. The cost of keeping it illegal is enormous.
