Author Topic: should marijuana be legalized for recreational use?  (Read 9297 times)

weed smoke isn't as damaging as cigarette smoke, if at all
It gives you cancer also unlike cigarette smoke it will get the kids high. I don't agree with that, they're still developing. Let their minds develop influence free.

Dude don't justify something just because everything is potentially harmful.

Smoking is bad for your health and bystanders health period.

you do realize vaping is a thing, right?
far less dangerous than smoking
like not everyone just smokes weed, you can have edibles and other stuff

I'd only ever remotely agree weed legalisation if it was only allowed to be consumed. Even still it'll only increase the incidences of smoking it but whatever forget it people insist on weed being legalised.

People in public shouldn't have to breathe in what can best be compared as alcohol vapour (yes i know they have different effects dont give me bullstuff, i mean generalised altered mental perception)

Nah people just need to realise there downside effects of weed legalisation. To your disbelief, there are actually downsides.

The only clear upside is easier access to those dependent on it. But that's a selfish motive.

Besides the varying long-term effects that nobody with a medical background can agree upon, marijuana is one of the safest recreational drugs.

The benefits outweigh the drawbacks.


3. DWI??? Legalise weed??? Profit.
4. Kids breathed cigarette smoke at one point because smoking was a pandemic. Oh wait weed's ok for kids to inhale? cool

After living in a state with legalized marijuana, I can safely say that neither of these were a big enough issue to cause worry.

It's pretty much illegal to expose minors to marijuana, even it it is second-hand. And if you're high enough to inhibit your driving ability, you will be pulled over and punished for DUI.

The issue with the former issue is that there's no clear cut way to determine how high somebody has before they shouldn't be legally allowed to operate a motor vehicle.


Awesome statistics bro, much believable.

If you're going to claim marijuana isn't what people think it is, and that it's way more dangerous than anyone previously led to believe, the burden of proof also lies on you.

The general consensus is that marijuana is known to have more mental side-effects than physical, and most issues occur from long-term, regular recreational use.

yes cig smoke may be extremely bad for your health but weed smoke is a lot less harmful


you do realize that the vapor that comes out of vapes is pretty much nothing

I actually completely agree with you. I just hate it when people are mislead to believe that weed is side-effect free

Also what's mainly concerning is that cases of DWI, smoking around children etc would increase, even if by a little.

You're doing it again ffs.

It's still bad for you and you cannot justify it this way

I actually completely agree with you. I just hate it when people are mislead to believe that weed is side-effect free
If weed was side effect free there would be no loving point in smoking it

You don't get what I mean. The euphoria is the wanted effect, anything else is a side effect.
