I have been watching a lot of documentaries on certain drugs in the past week and the one that has stood out the most is the one about Marijuana or Weed. I don’t understand what the government is doing I have done a lot of research on Marijuana or Weed and there are no recorded deaths caused by it.
In order to overdose on it you would have to smoke about 500 joints, the government could make billions if they were to legalize it and tax it. Not to mention that if it were legalized and taxed there would be less people smuggling it into countries because paying a small tax is much easier than losing shipments of their product.
I have personally smoked Weed and it has no real negative effects, perhaps it makes you dumb, slow and paranoid but those effects are only temporary and it has no real effects that can be called negative. I believe the only reason it was made illegal is because so many people started enjoying it.
Look at the psychedelic properties of Salvia in comparison to Marijuana or Weed, Salvia’s effects cause hallucinations beyond imagination and make it seem real. Weed doesn’t do anything of the sorts and yet it is illegal while Salvia is legal.
I know the government must have certain rules and blah blah blah but my two cents is that we are all individuals whom can make our own decisions for our own good or not we should be able to do as we please within good reason because our life is being restricted by a bunch of toffee nosed bastards.
If anything Tobacco should be illegal, Tobacco kills 500,000 people every year while Marijuana kills 0. There is absolutely no reason why it should be illegal because it is merely a plant which people like to smoke when depressed, or to make shitty movies better, or to just generally bring joy into their life when it is absent.
And Marijuana itself has no addictive properties, I smoked it daily for about 14 months then just stopped dead with no problems at all. Marijuana should be legalized as a recreational drug within the UK and USA because it is simply not harmless and it’s great fun for everyone.
If only someone would start a huge petition to legalize this drug and confront the government with said statistics, I believe that would get this recreational drug legalized. Even I am tempted to do this not because I enjoy smoking Marijuana or Weed tons but because it’s costing the UK and USA tax payer millions and possibly billions per year hunting down and arresting distributors, dealers, growers, users and so on.
I’m interested to know everyone’s opinion on Marijuana so feel free to leave a comment below and don’t forget to share it on your social networking sites etc too below let’s see what we can get done here because if I believe lots and lots of people wish to see me try and get this legalized I would be willing to put in the time and effort required to research all the information I would need and get people involved.
