Help answer this question below.
It should remain illegal, it causes paronia in some people...We dont need another problem on the market...Cigarettes feed nicotine to the brain, how nasty do people get if they dont smoke...Pot causes other problems..children are still developing brain wise....We don't need that on the market.
A popular argument for why it shouldn't be illegal is that it's a lot less harmful than things that ARE legal(alcohol, tobacco..).
I just can't understand the logic behind that.
If it's LESS harmful, that doesn't make it not harmful at all.
It should stay illegal.. and maybe tobacco and all the rest can join it.
That's logic.
Make pot legal and tax it like alcohol. Why stop there, make all soft drugs legal and decriminalize hard drugs for personal consumption. Kill off the black drug market. Release the stoners from prison and lock up the sex offenders in their place.
Becasue it still harms society.
I wanna see murder legalized, and put on pay-per-view.
Watch it burn...

What if Jesus teleported into your bedroom and told you that he can't fight this feeling anymore, and he'd forgotten what he started

You're reading If you're someone who believes pot should remain illegal, then why?

Paranoia is something people are going to experience anyway. Is it so hard to imagine someone feeling insecure walking down a dark alley? What about paranoia of losing a job if you don't do exactly what your boss says?
.
Problems are already there, it's a matter of correcting them. Making pot illegal doesn't stop people from smoking it, obviously, so why should we put those people in jail if their offense was a nonviolent drug offense? That's less tax dollars spent on housing and feeding that "criminal" as well as less tax dollars spent on trying to catch them.
.
I do agree in restricting children using it. They need to understand the consequences before experiencing them. But I think keeping it illegal is causing more problems than solving them. Thanks for the answer Catherine! +4

Stevie, I love you get off the POT....LOLs...
by Catherine on November 10th, 2009
I'll make an agreement with you. If I, or anyone else, can abolish the monetary system, then I will quit pot for life. It's a sacrifice I'm willing to make to benefit the rest of the world. :)
by Stevie on November 10th, 2009
Darling get off it...woman don't want men who do that shit...I would be so turned off...come on..Get off it, your bright, got a wonderful job, you have so much to offer a lady....Pot is for 18 year olds...Your an established man.....
by Catherine on November 10th, 2009
Do this make a movie of yourself smoking that shit...look at yourself if you see yourself and not liking what you see...Then quit...I see a man doing that I am so turned off...really...I know a woman who smokes that all the time, husband divorced her, her own daughter wont look at her, she got arrested and is in rehab...no job...nothing she is 47years old and lost everything..Her own daughter doesn't want her around.....its not worth it.
by Catherine on November 10th, 2009
I have a feeling that society helped shape her daughter's mind. We're trained to look at it as "evil." It's actually quite a bit less harmful than prescription drugs. So if the goal is to decrease dependence or risk of loss of life, then perhaps prescription drugs should be made illegal before pot.
.
My goal in life is to live as happily as I can, and it shouldn't matter what gov't thinks, as long as I'm not hurting or negatively affecting someone else. Right now, I don't believe I'm doing that, so why should I be discouraged from being happy?
.
My job is not fulfilling. Choosing accounting as a major, as still a child, was one of the most expensive and time consuming mistakes I've ever made. It doesn't help improve society which is why I'm considering taking a pay cut to help other people in a different profession.
by Stevie on November 10th, 2009
No, she smoked pot all the time, didn't do anything for the daughter not go to school functions etc....She got hooked on it and thats it...
by Catherine on November 10th, 2009
What kind of job do you want? Go for it your young do what you want in life...Cut the pot and move on...make yourself happy....your worth it.
by Catherine on November 10th, 2009
I'm going to join the AmeriCorps. Depending on how much I like that, I'll join the Peace Corps afterwards.
.
Thanks for the advice Catherine. And don't take this personally because I welcome advice, but I think I will continue to smoke pot. I think it helped make me the person I am today, and I like who I am. So if I can be happy and help others, but still smoke, then what's the problem?
by Stevie on November 10th, 2009
Darling its just no cool...Americorps good join...your going to help so many people...
by Catherine on November 10th, 2009
That's the object. If I can't help society as a whole, then I have to on a one person at a time basis.
.
For pot, agree to disagree?
by Stevie on November 10th, 2009
Get rid of POT...join the Americorp your wife is there waiting for you..Your going to meet a woman with humantarian heart...YOur going to fall inlove Stevie and make babies...NO POT Smoking anymore.....
by Catherine on November 10th, 2009
I hope you're right about my future love life. But she better not care if I smoke, otherwise she may not be my future wife.
by Stevie on November 10th, 2009
Come on honey, get real...you will be having kids....
by Catherine on November 10th, 2009
Some day. But that doesn't mean I would stop drinking alcohol which is also bad, in fact worse than pot. I refuse to tell my kids how to act, but will tell them why they should act a certain way. If I can't come up with a good enough reason to quit smoking, then I don't see me having a problem with my kids smoking, once they reach an age of consent of course. Just to clarify, I'm not going to get my kids to start smoking at the age of 8 or anything like that.
.
On a personal level, am I that bad of a person for smoking pot?
by Stevie on November 10th, 2009
Its a turn off for me....I cant deal with it..I rather you have drinks than smoking pot...It turns me off and alot of other woman to.....Re-think it..
by Catherine on November 10th, 2009
Well that's fine. I understand the turn off thing, it's like me not being too attracted to red heads for some reason. I'm more asking in terms of morality. Am I an immoral person for smoking pot? Or am I just a "criminal" in the eyes of the law and not necessarily immoral?
by Stevie on November 10th, 2009
No your not immoral, your addicted to shit...PS I love red headed men...they turn me on....stop smoking shit...get a girlfriend, what do you look like and what is your sign?
by Catherine on November 10th, 2009
Well my last gf said I look kind of like Freddy Prinze Jr. as in about average height 5'11 or so, dark hair, thin, and a virgo.
.
How about you Catherine? What do you look like?
.
Also, that was a general statement about red heads, not the rule. I have met hot red headed chicks. Never actually dated one though.
by Stevie on November 10th, 2009
Freddy I look like a soft marie osmond, emma samms, victoria principal kind of look...Aquarius
by Catherine on November 10th, 2009
YOur cute, stop you shit and get laid with a girl....stop smoking..it clouds your judgement..
by Catherine on November 10th, 2009

by Catherine on November 10th, 2009
Maybe you're right. Maybe I do just need to be straightened out...
by Stevie on November 10th, 2009
Yes you do..
by Catherine on November 10th, 2009
You need a home, wife kids, that will do the trick, you got too much time on your hands for smoking pot...YOu have all those responsibilities you wont be able to wipe your ass properly...
by Catherine on November 10th, 2009

by Stevie on November 11th, 2009
I knew I could put a smile on that face of yours..
by Catherine on November 11th, 2009
You do more often than I think you realize.

Good smiling and feeling good is wonderful....answer some questions I have been very naughty today...
by Catherine on November 11th, 2009
I got asshole trolls following me...they are truly mental
by Catherine on November 11th, 2009
Ok, no problem.
by Stevie on November 11th, 2009
PLease feel free to give answers....have a laugh
by Catherine on November 11th, 2009
Pot is ok, but quualudes and tequila make backing out of the driveway a 3-day long interesting ride.
P.S. Women who own bongs, kids, and good jobs are hot...in other words, responsible adults...
by cheerio on November 11th, 2009
This made me laugh. Catherine is against pot, but she's a nymphomanic who's addicted to another drug called sex. Horny women are a huge turn off. I say make pot legal and regulate it like alchol and tobacco. Give adults 18+ the choice to smoke and drink.
