More reasons why pot should be legalized, this time quoted from the white house anti-drug site.
http://www.whitehousedrugpolicy.gov/dru ... index.html
1) "Approximately 56 percent of current illicit drug users consumed only marijuana, 20 percent used marijuana and another illicit drug, and the remaining 24 percent used an illicit drug but not marijuana"
So 76% of drug users in America use pot, out of thoughs only just over 1/4 go on to other drugs, damn someone needs to come up with a fucking better gateway casue marijuana aint getting it done!
2)"An estimated 37% of Americans aged 12 or older had used marijuana or hashish in their lifetime"
So over 1/3 of America has used pot! Why the hell hasnt this shit been changed years ago? Oh ya, politicians don't inhale.
3)"Someone who smokes marijuana regularly may have many of the same respiratory problems that tobacco smokers do" and "Although all of the students had scored equally well in 4th grade, those who were heavy marijuana smokers, i.e., those who used marijuana seven or more times per week, scored significantly lower in 12th grade than nonsmokers."
Now THAT is a damn good reason to send someone to jail for several years! God bless this country, if it wasn't for our marijuana laws we'd have nothin but a bunch of Army grunts! (cigarette smokein idiots)
4)"According to a 1997 Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) survey of Federal and state prisoners approximately 19% of Federal and 13% of state drug offenders were incarcerated for a marijuana-related offense."
So 1 out of 5 guys in Federal pound me in the ass prison are there cause of bud. Anyone besides me think they should let thoughs guys out in order to free up some room for the muderers and rapists that are getting prolled early do to lack of jail space??!
5)"Marijuana in a Schedule I substance under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA). Schedule I drugs are classified as having a high potential for abuse, no currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States, and a lack of accepted safety for use of the drug or other substance under medical supervision."
Well ya, Marijuana is abused all the time, flippin cops always flushing it down the toilet and grinding it into the ground, damn pigs. And ya, medical use is against federal LAW! 9 states dont know shit, especially CA, their a bunch of freakin movie stars and beach bums! And true, its not safe to use you could do minor damage to YOUR OWN lungs, or after years of use do slightly worse on fucking collage enterance exams than someone who was probably smarter than you anyhow, and even worse use of marijuana could lead to cronic health problems such as getting fucked in the ass nightly by some fat black guy in federal pound me in the ass prison! (as stated above)
Now that you've heard the arguments of our great government don't YOU want a drug free america too?
