anyone who tries to produce a logical argument for why marijuana should be illegal is clearly misinformed. First of all if marijuana were legalized, it would be slightly harder for a 12 year old to get some weed. This is due to the fact that drug dealers do not ask for ID, honestly if all drugs were legal the number of people who use addictive drugs during adolescence would drop. There is not a single bit of evidence that proves that weed is "bad" and in my opinion if marijuana is illegal ONLY because it is unhealthy, then make alcohol and cigs illegal and make them Schedule 1 along with meth, heroine, and cocaine.
I smoke weed on a daily basis and I get As and Bs in school. actually before I smoked weed I was getting Fs and just barely pulling them up to Ds at the end of the year. Also The only time I have ever used any "harder" drugs was when I was drunk, not high.
