It's a natural pain-killer! I've looked up many non-partisan medical journals that all state marijuana is not dangerous (except to the lungs, if you smoke it). It doesn't kill brain cells, isn't physically addictive, and has no long-term effects. What's more, no one has ever contracted cancer from using weed (in the recorded, medical world). And what drug doesn't have any short-term effects? In fact, tobacco, caffeine, alcohol, and other prescription drugs (all legal) are all very destructive (i.e. physically addictive, physically degenerative, have long-term as well as short-term effects, and are even deadly). And, of course, nobody should operate machinery or do anything that requires the importance of critical thinking while using any drugs, legal or not. If it were legal to buy, there wouldn't be crime on the street from its (illegal) distribution, tax dollars could be made and even used to fight addiction. Does anybody have a real reason for it's continued criminalization?
