I don't smoke it but I don't see why it's illegal.  Tobacco and alcohol are far worse.

I've never smoked it but I'm all for the legalization of it...

It might not kill you, but it will make you more stupid.

That doesn't change my opinion at all. In fact, it encourages my opinion.

If tobacco is legal, why the hell is marijuana illegal? They both have harmful effects, but tobacco leads to death.
Slow, painful, death.
Alcohol kills brain cells, yet it's legal.
Oh look at that. Marijuana has an effect on the brain, so does alcohol. Legalize the damn stuff and make a damn fortune.

I don't think any of them should be legal, but they can't just keep adding stuff to degrade intelligence. And they can't remove anything or there'll be an outbreak.

Why let people sell it and smuggle it illegally, and increase crime throughout the country? Legalize it, and it will decrease the crime in some states. So  much money could be made if they legalize this shit.

I don't smoke, so, whatever...toot;

Um...hello? Can you hear me, sir? Please pay attention and think before commenting. Whether or not you drink is not the point. The point is that it's legal.

Seriously, we're not talking about you here.  psyduck;

The argument lots of people have is that the government doesn't want to legalize it because they cannot tax it, because people can and are growing it in huge amount, government cannot easily tax something that people grow and sell.

I realize you can say that farmers are taxed, but actually I think thats wrong in the first place, since farmers get paid by the government to grow crops...

Also if people are getting it illegally right now then why should they pay taxes on it if it ever is legalized

If it is legalized the price will go down.   People will be more willing to pay for it legally than illegally.

People can grow marijuana very easily, people can't grow or make alcohol easily....

I was never against it. I have done it a few times myself. Also weed should be legal, I watched a Documentry on it and it is illegal due to some racism issues or something of the sort.  china;

You seem to be ignoring the fact that tobacco kills the person who smokes it, and the people around them.

That is assuming they're smoking it.

Still, chew is fucking gross.

Chew is better than most things. Around here it's called Snuff, and they went so far as to make beef jerky in that form.
