Marijuana Debate - American Fork, UT

it would be the smartest thing America done

If people are been thrown to jail for smoking pot then lets ilegalize alcohol and tabacco that are such bad drugs with a slow killing mechanism!!!

People should start seen thing how really are!! lets see here we have alcohol and tabacco that are drugs with a slow killing mechanism and it kill take your life at some point! I have make a lot of research and I have never found someone who died for overdosis of marijuana! Im 17 and I live in American Fork and Im originally from Costa Rica and Im American too. I used to smoke pot back in my place since I was 14 and It have never been a problem for my studies. It was a problem of course in my family but after lots of chat and talk I make them understand and they saw that may grades in school wherent been afect, actually theyre somethings I dnt understand I will just have a smoke and study in such peace...! I hope I make my point of view cleared for english been my second language! Thank you

No, your point is no very clear because of English being your second language. Maybe you should smoke some more pot and study the English language.

The IRS can't find a way to tax it. If legalized...anyone with a green thumb can grow it and IRS would get nothing. It's less harmful then alcohol or tobacco......

Why would anyone want to legalize a substance that kills the brain?? Have you ever talked to someone that has been smoking dope!! Talk about brain dead!! Need I say more!!

I am very successfull thanks to getting HIGH grades.

This topic has been on the news for several years now. It is nonetheless a going in circle type of controversy. Legalize it or not, people who want to get high on it will continue to do so. According to the http://medicineshoppeparkridge.com park ridge pharmacy; crack heads can get high on pretty much everything. I honestly don't know what's the fuss is all about. We can't all have control over the consumption of the drogue.

Freedom

Marijuana, like most drugs, ruins the lives of the people who use it. Our communities are made worse by its presence, and legalizing it would put the people who live here, especially our children, at a much greater risk of acquiring destructive habits and addictions.
