Lets not start a "the dangers/benefits of marijuana debate" here. Keep that shit in the politics forum. Because that's what it is, politics. A good majority of uninformed people frown upon marijuana because the government tells them to. Within that same majority, there are people who
ing love drinking a cold beer and relaxing with a cigar every now and then. Alcohol and cigs are drugs too, it's just that they're legal and socially accepted. Now, if there were more business conglomerates investing and promoting marijuana as a mainstream product, and the government gets behind then because they're noticing the $$$ being made, we got ourselves another "legal drug". But yeah, I'm sure most of y'all heard this shit, so I'll just stop there.
In my opinion, it's actually better having marijuana as an illegal drug because yeah, though I used to smoke pot up the wazoo, I would not want some kids blazing up when I'm trying to study, eat a meal, or have a conversation in a public area. Also, as an illegal drug, it's more cost friendly for actual consumers. $10-$20 (depends on where you're from) for the basic dub sack is more cost efficient than the $20-$35 they charge you at legal medicinal clinics. Sure, the medicinal stuff is more potent, dense, and sticky icky, but find the good connects and you can get the purp, GG, trainwreck and all that fancy shit for a good price.
But yeah, I'm not a big proponent of blazing because it does have it's negative effects. Made me and most of my pot heads friends degenerates for the first couple years of college. Now I'm playing catch up so I can actually stay within a competitive pool for law school. Instead of having a good time on Friday nights like the other kids, I'm here posting on CAG, working on my honors thesis and studying for finals. You smoke too much of that stuff, you'll get dependent on it. I couldn't enjoy my food, sleep well, and get through my classes without toking up and keeping my high going throughout the day. Picking up smoking is one of those things I hella regret, because like I said, I'm behind the game of life.
ANYWAY, I'll stop writing an essay. LeBron is a pussy anyway. My boy Kobe should have won the season MVP title because yeah, he can actually win a championship.
