Marijuana should be legal

Great arguments! One thing I would like for you to do though is use more reliable sources live .gov or .edu or .org instead .com for your websites. I'm not saying all your facts are wrong, but it would be better to have a source that is more educated on the subject matter. Anyway again good luck and let's begin.http://www.oregon.gov...This is an older study shows that in from, Jan. 1, 1997-June 30, 2005. Marijuana contributed to 279 deaths in the 8.5 years. I know that it is not a lot for 8.5 year but you were making a false claim that it does not kill anyone each year, which is false. Now marijuana can not be overdosed, which you might have been trying to say but you need to understand that it can hurt people. Also, I would like to ask for some fact check on some of the following claims."It also helps with parenting skills""Marijuana also decreases the amount of car crashes by 8-11%, especially since people who use Marijuana become more calm" Those were just some small issues but now down to the main arguements. http://cyber.law.harvard.edu..."Marijuana is can cause serious mental disorders such as acute toxic psychosis, panic attacks (one of the very conditions it is being used experimentally to treat), flashbacks, delusions, depersonalization, hallucinations, paranoia, depression, and uncontrollable aggressiveness. And in addition, In the short term, marijuana use impairs perception, judgment, thinking, memory, and learning; memory defects may persist six weeks after last use. Also, It has been concretely established that smoking cigarettes promotes lung cancer (which causes more than 125,000 deaths in the US every year), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (chronic bronchitis and emphysema) and increased incidence of respiratory tract infections. This implies, but does not establish, that smoking marijuana may lead to some of the same results as smoking cigarettes. It is notable that several reports indicate an unexpectedly large proportion of marijuana users among cases of lung cancer and cancers of the oral cavity,pharynx, and larynx. The main respiratory consequences of smoking marijuana regularly (one joint a day) are pulmonary infections and respiratory cancer, whose connection to marijuana use has been strongly suggested but not conclusively proven. The effects also include chronic bronchitis, impairment in the function of the smaller air passages, inflammation of the lung, the development of potentially pre-cancerous abnormalities in the bronchial lining and lungs, and, as discussed, a reduction in the capabilities of many defensive mechanisms within the lungs."With all these heath risks involved, the danger of marijuana is real and it is important to inhibit its use. Also, regarding you points about the US spending billions of dollars preventing the use of marijuana. It is not the US governments fault that it must spend that money. It is the citizens faults that use the drug illegally. Also, even when marijuana gets legalized there will still be people under age that use the drug and that will still cost the US a lot of money. So, leaglizing it would save a little bit of money but at what cost? The cost of our health. It is cheaper to grow marijuana but the extra energy used for other planter and farmer to grow other crops and supplies will be worth the investment. Because, the illegalization of marijuana will help our safety and also toxins are also emitted from Marijuana if it's planted and grown incorrectly. So, is it worth the exchange for a little extra cash to our health? I don't think so.
