weed/marijuana and your views?

I smoke it all the time, I don't see why it should be illegal? It can be very useful for medical purposes and it's no more harmful then tobacco... in fact the main side effect of marijuana is you might become paranoid whilst if you smoke you can get lung cancer and other forms of cancer as a result of smoking... tobacco has potentially worse side effects and is legal so marijuana should be legal... plus someone made a very good point on gateway drugs and how marijuana wouldn't be considered a gateway drug if it was a legal... I agree with that point >.>

I read your post and you make some good points to be fair.

Whatever. I told you I've used it recreationally and you called me a druggie. :lol:

Anyway my views are complex on this, but yeah I've done it. Do I recommend it? Can I say that? I don't know. Who knows? Ahhh it's a crazy thing, i need some sleep

What? That's crazy talk. Imagine how FP would look if Fergal got wasted one day and decided to do some admin work... 😛
 
Well, he is an Irishman! Anyway, back on topic...

the basic argument is "less health risks than tobacco, make it legal" Tobacco brings government money via taxes, marijuana would do the same?

Yes, tax it.
 
Don't think so, as the government would loose support from a lot of people in the tobacco, alcohol, and medical industries. Marijuana alone can't make up for those 3 giant industries.
 
Why would they loose support from people in tobacco/alcohol? And perhaps in the medical industries, some people might be angry but what exactly are they going to do?
 
Lobbyists pay the government $$ to push their laws... its legal bribery. Alcohol, Tobacco, and most certainly the medical industries would take a hit. Not to mention if industrial hemp gained more popularity you're looking at paper & cotton companies along with many more too. Not gonna happen.
 
I think that's speculation which can't really be used in a debate. I'm still not convinced it would cost the government more to legalise it.

Wrong......MORE health risks than tobacco, all the same trappings, lung disease, heart disease, strokes etc ....and remember my original post, mental health issues 😉
