MARIJUANA SHOULD BE LEGAL

Legalize marijuana? I think so. But people's views vary widely on this matter.

Alcohol and related accidents kill more people than marijuana. But
marijuana is used as much as alcohol, despite being illegal.

Unlike alcohol, marijuana doesn't remove one's ability to walk. Alcohol is
deadly and causes people not to remember what they did the night before.
Alcohol is more lethal, even though it's legal.

And smoking cigarettes is terrible. Cigarettes kill more people than
anything, but are legal in the United States.

Why is that? The laws don't make sense. People can have a legal drug that
is 10 times more harmful. People who are against legalizing marijuana have
not tried it or tested it, as they should before jumping to any conclusions.

Whoever is blocking marijuana legalization while supporting use of alcohol
and cigarettes is a hypocrite. Everyone involved in the effort to legalize
marijuana should demand some hard evidence against it. There should be a
vote on the subject.
