Let's Talk About My Best Friend MaryJane

I don't smoke marijuana but I think it should be legal for adults only just like cigarettes.

As for alcohol and cigarettes being legal, I have a different view (while I still agree with Napoleon and Awesome's opinions):

- Alcohol is legal because it isn't necessary made to get you drunk. Drinking one beer or a glass of wine won't make you drunk, and everybody enjoys appreciating a good drink. You only get drunk after you pass the limit, but alcohol per se is a beverage and nothing more. Cannabis will make you high and that's the purpose, sure some people develop tolerance and need higher doses, but even my marijuana smoking friends admit the sole purpose is not the taste but to get high and enjoy it

- Cigarettes are harmful and I'm a cig smoker myself, the thing is cigs don't make you high or drunk, you've probably never heard of anyone killing because of cigarettes, or abusing his family, it doesn't affect your daily life after you become used to it. Sure it gets you addicted, but it doesn't make you high or compromise your judgement.

I say all drugs should be legal except heavy drugs that are very addicting and kill people in a short time, b sides making them commit crimes to get drug money.

I'll never understand the war on drugs and all the fight to stop people from minding their business and bodies. As a smoker I support the ban for public spaces, schools, hospitals and other similar buildings, even for bars and nightclubs, I have no problem with it. But I think owners should be able to keep a smokers zone if they have room and can afford it, it's a choice and can get you more clients. Jail is a place for dangerous people, not for people who like getting high or enjoy doing drugs... It's an influence of religion and body puritanism if we look at it, we see harming one's body as sinful and want to ban it.
