should marijuana be legalized for recreational use

May might say that the war on drugs is a big failure but it is not for example : #1 Meth Raid in Mexico Yields $205 Million Cash Seizure In March 2007,. US and Mexican authorities seized over $200 million in US dollars from several methamphetamine in one of Mexico City"s most expensive areas. US officials said that the massive size of this seizure showed the huge scope of the illegal narcotics trade that links Mexico, Asia and the US. Two of the people who were arrested in this cash seizure actually were from China. The raid happened after a long investigation that started in December 2006, when the police seized 20 tons of pseudoephedrine, which is a cold medicine used to make meth. http://cashseizurelaw.com... on /2014/december/9/ Marijuana yes has been used for many years it has only been used for paper, clothing, recreational. In the past we used to drink urine to see if they are sick or people throw out there fecal matter out the window. So, things we did in the past has not always been for the best. No, we can not say that not one death has been caused my marijuana, after all marijuana can cause cancer. Also, some other symptoms causes bodily harm. Further to this point marijuana is a light drug but it acts as a gateway for harder drugs such as heroine and crack cocaine. These drugs can ruin you life. Actually, marijuana does destroy brain cells and even harm them. Marijuana affects memory, judgment and perception. The drug can make you mess up in school, in sports or clubs, or with your friends. If you"re high on marijuana, you are more likely to make mistakes that could embarrass or even hurt you. If you use marijuana a lot, you could start to lose interest in how you look and how you"re getting along at school or work. Athletes could find their performance is off; timing, movements, and coordination are all affected by THC. This is why it is a banned substance in the Olympics. Also, since marijuana can affect judgment and decision-making, its use can lead to risky sexual behavior, resulting in exposure to sexually transmitted diseases like HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. https://uodos.uoregon.edu... on /2014/december/9/ it is not propaganda if it is true, many people mistake propaganda from the truth. The use of marijuana can have a bad impact on people and their lives so ti is are duty to inform the good people of this world about the real dangers of marijuana consumption which can lead to more serious drugs. no not every one will benefit most likely they will come to the same conclusion i have that marijuana is not the best product to use at all. marijuana does not have Stereotypes the people who consume do and the stereotypes are there to inform the people of the danger. it is not because of the drug that the celebrities are success. Rather it is because of their individual talents. Also not all celebrities take drugs or drink. Further to this point some celebrities such as Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man) became more successful after they quit taking drugs. Regarding you excellent point about hemp. This is true. Hemp is a plant but it is not marijuana. It does not contain the THC that is in marijuana. So hemp in Canada is legal and is used as a material to make clothing, paper and other items. However, as in Canada there is no need to legalize it as it is not marijuana. Your argument is flawed the drug in marijuana (THC) should not be legalized and so you are agreeing with me. Again as I have stated before the drug is bad and leads to bad behaviour and problems for people. Thus, the drug marijuana should not be legalized.
