I was just wondering.... why do so many people hate Marijuana ? considering..... Tobacco kills more people in a year, then marijuana has in existance... I mean.. Everyone seems to hate it. and i personally don't understand why. I've done a bunch of research, and googled up some sites with proof in a hope to show people that marijuana isn't as horrible as you might think... and just think about these questions i am going to put up below.

A) Why does marijuana take so long to be removed from your body ? whereas harder drugs are gone in a set amount of hours.
B) Why are there No reported Deaths associated with marijuana ?
C) Why don't people get addicted to Marijuana ?
D) Why can't you OD on Marijuana ?
E) Why isn't Marijuana legal ? even though Tobacco and alchohol ( Un-combined ) have killed hundreds of thousands more people.

I am hoping at least some of you " anti-cannabis " people on GS read those questions and think about them.

If you need more information, I suggest you watch " Totally Baked " which is a documentary.. which.. as you know hold info. but please check it out.

Anyways, I want opinions... that is if this thread doesn't get shot down right away :)
But, look at the questions. and post what you believe the answers are.

I realize that this isn't exactly hard evidence, but having had my share of experience with people under the influence of marijuana, I'd say that there need to be as many barriers between it and people who want to smoke it as possible.

I have no issues with marijuana. My friends smoke it, I know there are no issues with it. I don't understand why it is illegal while alcohol and cigarettes are fine. I have absolutely no desire to try it myself but I don't hate anyone who does do it, though most people who do it and/or sell it seem to be real dickheads.

Like most cases of hate, it stems from a severe lack of understanding.

Thats an okay point. I mean. it does make people seem kinda stupid. but It's better than any of the heavy chemical drugs. Besides. People with disabilities that smoke it, like physical disabilities have an easier time dealing with their disability. if you watch certain documentaries on marijuana, you'll see the difference, and you'll know what I mean. One that focus' more on that is called " In pot we trust ". That one shows more about people that smoke medical marijuana, to cope with whatever their disability is... and writing that brings me to one more point Medical marijuana, ever heard that for any other substance ? I doubt it.

Any doctor who isn't a pothead will tell you marijauna gives one lung cancer over tiem as well. IT's just not as damaging as tobacco.

It's alright every once and awhile... By that I mean at a party, however the dopers who march around my town thinking they're the bee's knee's cuz they smoke dope are what makes it look bad. Also, the people who try to act deep and talk as if they're fading away..

Okay, Let me ask you this. You're having trouble sleeping at night. you go to the doctor only to get a prescription of sleeping pills. entirely made of chemicals... which do who knows what to your body. Would you rather take the pill and suffer with any side effects that come with it ? or smoke a joint and go to sleep side effect free.... well.. besides the obvious.

I can handle people smoking when I smoke... but when I take a break from it I get reaaaaaally annoyed when people just smoked.

I just cant find the humor when they are acting so dumb and im not.... unless of course I smoked too.

see thats the problem - thats all well and good, but weed smokers have trouble seeing the big picture

we're having a hard enough time anyway trying to sustain a society, we can't have every man, woman, child and paramedic running around high

although i dont think much would change, i honestly dont see a huge change that like - "oh now thats its legal i'll smoke it"

it was never that hard to get it

personally i just think it should be a fine thing like speeding, not jail time

I've been around weed and smoking adults for over 10 years, and I have never seen an adult act like that. Not once. Thats just a stereotype on tv as a joke.

there are too many "what ifs" with no positive outcome

it is a drug ok, pure and simple - it has benefits as a drug, so a doctor can prescribe it as needed

and you idiots want it sold in vending machines in my 10 year old cousins school

See the thing is... I don't give a **** about society. I'm living my own life just fine. It's not my problem if someone else chooses to **** up their own over something like weed. And a doctor should never be running around high... I mean there are doctors who drink, but never drink while they are at the job... You know? Altho I'd feel really safe around a doctor who is high... Doctors/surgeons are generally really good at what they do. And weed doesn't affect your motor skills as much as you think it would.

I dislike alcohol and tobacco just as much. I'm betting the reason weed doesn't kill as many people is because it isn't legal and not as many people do it. Ever thought of that? I've heard that documentary Totally Baked is really biased too.

There's more to marijuana than just smoking it... That's a huge reason why people want it legalized.

Yeah... I use a vaporizer.
