You're missing the difference between physical and mental addiction. Physical addiction = Chemical addiction.Originally Posted by John
Anyways heres some facts instead of opinions:

In the book, he reviews decades of international research on marijuana, both laboratory research and survey research. Based on his review of the scientific literature, between 10 to 30% of regular users will develop dependency. Only about 9% will have a serious addiction.

gotta legalize it brah
I believe it should be legalized because it doesn't seem to be too harmful
plus it could generate money for the govt
legalize
yea i smoke a shitload of it cuz its good & ive been smokin it for 11 years now,
but government n shit should realize it benefits them like +3473439% lmfao.
it's healthier than cigarettes too, or atleast i've heard.
Kind of. Cigarette tobacco has lots of chemicals in it and therefore produces far more carcinogens, but marijuana produces more "tar". A single joint of weed will produce about the same amount of "tar" as three cigarettes.
I'm for legalization. Anyone in their right mind has to believe that the fact that weed is illegal is doing far more harm than good to many aspects of our society.

Pain killers my dad takes are a fortune for a week supply it is nearly $200. Luckily he has insurance he does not have to pay for. This is way cheaper unless they start putting it in pill form.
Okay, now I have experience both a Vicodin and (mental) medical Marijuana addiction and all I can say about this statement is WTF? It was easier for you to quit "pills/hard drugs" than Marijuana?! WHAT?! I've literally never heard that before in my life and I'm sorry but I'm going to have to call bs. Coming off a pill addiction such as Vicodin or any other pain killer causes intense migraines, sweating and body aches. You're telling me that it was easier to go through that than a mental marijuana addiction? Let alone these "hard drugs" you claim to have taken.
Marijuana is addictive in the same sense as video games, sports or gambling is addictive. If it's harder for you to quit that than hard drugs then you've got some issues.
My earlier post wasnt written right. My point is only that there can be an addiction to weed. Pill addiction is a lot worse obviously. I stopped before I got addicted to pills or dope (I got arrested. Cant have opiates show up in drug test).

I vote to make it legal its a far less dangerous drug than some of its other illegal comrades. Also has a lot of positive qualities and healing abilities as opposed to other drugs which pretty much just harm you EX: Crack
No. Drugs = no, period
