What is your take on legalizing medical marijuana? Just some random medical benefits
Bronchial dialator (having an asthma attack? Small puff and it's gone)
Lowers the pressure in the eyes which benefits glaucoma victims.
THC helps prevent dead cells from becoming cancer cells.
It drastically reduces nausea in kemo patients and increases their appetite.
But no everyone feels so great about legaized medical marijuana, what's your take?
Answer:
Actually, I'm still not real sure why marijuana is illegal. I must also say I am not for the use of drugs (I don't even drink alcohol). However, I think the government should stay out of peoples lives. If they want to smoke pot, gamble, etc., I say it is their choice. We have laws in place for dui, so if someone is stupid enough to drive while high, let that law apply. If drugs were legal, violent crime related to drugs would decline since there would not be as large a black market. It would also eliminate many of the border issues we are having.
I often hear the cry for more personal responsibility. Let's get big government out of our personal lives and quit trying to legislate morality. Let the individual decide.
I prefer to think about it as not infringing the people's right to make their own decisions.
Marijuana affects the user and the user only, for good or for bad.
You should be allowed to make your own choices. Period.
From a logical point of view, a tobacco smoker, an alcohol drinker, a glue breather, a compulsive eater or a marijuana user should have the same legal status.
Plus, without the marijuana prohibition, farmers could be growing hemp and we all could get cleaner and cheaper paper, fiber, oils and, from them, fuel.
