Why pot should be legal

 

            
             Did you know there is an estimated 300,000,000 pot smoker's world wide? Yes, pot has been an issue sense it was made illegal back in the 1920's. But why should it be legal? Well there are three great reasons I can think of. First if both beer and cigs are legal and they both get people addicted and killed. Pot has its bad side, but it is nowhere near as bad as alcohol or cigs, then why shouldn't pot be legal? Second it would be a great source of revenue for the government. Pot has many uses in the medical field.
             I know you have asked yourself that if beer and cigs are legal, why not pot? Alcohol has lead to the death many people in car accidents. There has been many less pot related car accidents compared to alcohol related crashes. Sadly all of the drugs have bad sides to them, but pot is the least worst of the three. Some of people think all drugs should be outlawed, but it is a free county and if people want to cut lose and have a little fun well that's their option. Many people will say the effects of pot have not been felt yet, but if there was a very damaging side effect, then wouldn't have either our doctors or users found out. It has been around for hundreds of years. .
             Yes, both beer and cigs are addictive. Using them can give you cancer, liver, and lung damage. When have you ever heard of some dying from smoking pot? No, of course you haven't. No one has ever died from smoking to much pot, unlike Alcohol. The only thing that can happen is that you get hungry and eat a lot, or have a good night's sleep. That is why pot would be the better pick for anyone who would like to get messed up. The youth of today is going to experiment with drugs, its just human nature to be curious about these things when we see so much of it on T.V. and in movies. So why should people go to jail just for being a little curious, it's not like their doing Crack or some other hard core drug.
