    The government corporation doesn't want competition.

    Exactly. Public safety isn't the primary concern.

    It's a proven fact that marijuana is linked to gun smuggling and terrorist operations and is the main cause of global warming and the hole in the ozone

    Because it represents the anti-establishment movements of the 60's, and for no other reasons than this.

    I don't know. I think it's so stupid why it's even illegal in the first place.

    Marijuana reminds me of alcohol, if it's used responsibly it's fine but if it's abused well... If you research alcohol prohibition you'll find some similarities with marijuana. It got repealed in the end but marijuana doesn't have the support to change existing laws.

    Literally the ONLY reason was because, during the prohibition era and shortly afterward, marijuana was used by minorities, especially blacks and Latinos, that the racists in the government wanted to hinder as much as possible. It was also used by minority sympathizers and anti-capitalist, anti-establishment culture, basically is was outlawed because of racist imperialism in the United States, and many other countries around the world followed suit to copy the USA's government model.

    you can overdose on weed rly you cant and the k2 stuff you can its bad !!! weed i know for a fact helps alot of cancer patients and with me being a caregiver i can see the differnces between patients who smoke and patients who take pills and weed has no harm on the body unless you have asthma or breathing issues same with smoking ciggs but its proven it is not a drug but a herb and can be used for alot of things and it may make kids act weird thats just cuz there immature and cant handle the buzz but also do not reccomend smoking pot and driving that just like drinking and driving
