There is no research that states marijuana is harmful if taken correctly, yet there are many to signify the tramendous healing qualities it posses.

Drugs, safecracking, credit card theft, insurance frauds, all of this and more can be found in the world of crime. The aim:“to accumulate wealth." For the more adventurous individual, moving narcotics is where the real action and the big money was at when I was young. You either live with it, become part of the action, or you don't survive in that life. You become an outcast and sooner or later you can become very dead. When I was young I found out slowly but surly about what kind of people can emerge from that life. But it was myself who could say it was I who had seen it all. I never thought much of dope dealers. Still don't. They can't be trusted and even some of my closest associates were no exception, although it took me a little longer than usual to realize it. That's why I never dealt in drugs except as a smuggler or a courier.
Without the hype of Hollywood, there is some truth to the notion that drugs do have an affect on people's mental health. It does do something. Without a clinical diagnosis even needed, drugs do give people an I-don't-give-a-shit attitude. It'll make a sane man make questionable judgments. Whatever that person is smoking or snorting into their bodies and minds, it can make a normal person filled with abnormal perceptions. It can take a bold high-spirited but good natured person, and turn him into a nasty, mean-spirited bastard. And it can take this nasty bastard and turn him into a revolting, shameful, mindless cutthroat scum! For anyone thinking about living with a habitual drug user, this is what you will be facing every day of your life-and just what you will be up against.
I found this out the hard way. People I knew for years in the drug trade would evolve into something far different from when I first met them. At first I noticed symptoms of carelessness and forgetfulness that resembled old people going through senility. Then these same smugglers and users became more brazen and reckless without hardly a shred of better judgment. If it is true that people are crazy to begin with, whatever criminal actions people are capable of are enhanced by the use of drugs. I did not like most of the people I saw in the drug racket. I thought, I had notions, that if I could just be in the drug trade as long as I needed, and be able to get out just as fast, I could make money and have no problems. But no, that wasn't to be. I found out fast enough that it is a dangerous, backstabbing business!

Go ahead, tell me how wrong you think I am.

Prosecuting a non-violent act that harms only the person using it, if that, is a complete waste of money and the legal system assets. The police and the courts have better things to do.

It's stupid to put pot users in prison. There is little or no evidence proving it harmful. The only people hurt would be the correctional people as the jails would rapidly drop in population.

For those of us who don't like to be hooked on chemical pain kills, cannabis is an excellent alternative.

Honestly it should be legalized, especially after the gov't just taxed the hell out of cigarettes. Use the same tax cut on cannabis and watch the national debt melt away. Plus, you wouldn't have a drug cartel problem, nor all the drug trafficking problems. I say legalize it so the people who actually do have problems with taking pills and become easily addicted, can more easily overdose and die. Where as cannabis, the worst you get on an overdose is labored breathing and a great nights rest.

I believe marijuana is safer than any other drugs and or any other hard liquor or even cigarets. I Haven't heard of anyone dying from pot or getting angry and beating someone on pot either.
