you'll get more answers if you ask one question at a time.
basically, the good feature is it makes you feel a sort of calm euphoria, among other things. whereas the bad features are all the negative health effects. there is some risk of dependency, but as far as being a gateway drug, that all depends on how strong the person's mind was and their mentality in the first place. some reasons it should be legalized is that the health effects are not that bad, marijuana is actually a little better for you than alcohol consumption. another reason would be that the government could tax it if they decided to make it readily available for public purchase. there's just as many reasons to make sure it stays illegal, such as the fact that, other drugs might become the next topic of debate and eventually legalized, etc. the reason society makes it sound so bad is because of all the bad things that have happened to people who use it, but in reality there's just as many accidents with alcohol and other legal substances. if you use it long-term, you may find that you become physically addicted to the habit of smoking and you start to miss it, making it hard to quit. also, it could lead to trying other things, but not in every case. that, and you can find that you are starting to lose function of your memory.

Marijuana is a gateway drug. Once you begin smoking or eating it...eventually you want something else.
Marijuana is also the great de-motivator. Any motivation you have will quickly be depleted when using marijuana.
Studies have shown marijuana to kill brain cells and the thing is, is that you don't get to choose which ones. We as humans only use 8% of our brains but it seems to effect that 8%; not the 92% we don't use.
It also slows your re-action time and your metabolism, gives you the munchies and has been linked to heart palpitations (irregular heart beat.)
There are many uses of marijuana, one of the greatest uses is for medication. That's not self medication either. It can be used for glacoma (relieve's pressure) and it is used with cancer patients going through chemo (helps to stimulate their appitite.)
Hemp is also used in moisturizing lotions and makes one of the strongest natural ropes available. Today, it is rarely used in making rope. Instead, the abaca and aguave plants have been substituted in it's place.

Cannabis in the past was the main resource for life in many civilizations. The seeds provided oil for lamps etc. if you take an acre of land and cut the trees down for paper it is a waste. In the same amount of space ,cannabis or hemp fiber produces 10x more fiber for paper..and its more durable. The constitution is written on hemp paper!!

The weed can lead to the gay. Notice who smokes weed. Long haired hippie scum like john lennon who hate war. Also criminal blacks smoke the weed like that bob marley. The cia tried to take him out, fortunately he died young and couldnt spread his songs of drug use and socialism anymore. The weed is a gateway drug to crack too. It is evil and is illegal because it is a scourge.
