Should Cannabis Be Legalized?
Should Cannabis Be Legalized!!!!?
Cannabis has been qualified illegal by The Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) for decades now!! That has caused many problems like more arrests. Maybe the only solution is legalizing it! Here are some good reasons why legalizing it wouldn’t hurt America. 1) Marijuana is not lethal! 2) Alcohol & Tobacco are more harmful. 3) It helps Release Pain. 4) Colorado legalized it & has been doing better than before!!
The most common reason why it is not bad for Cannabis to be legal is ….. It is not lethal! First off to die you have to smoke 20,000 to 40,000 times the amount of Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). That is impossible to smoke; therefore, you cannot die by smoking Cannabis!
Alcohol & Tobacco are way more harmful than Cannabis, yet remain legal! 2.5 million people die by alcohol related accidents!! That is worldwide & annually. That is terrible & this next one is even worse! 8.6 million people live with a serious illness, disease or injury caused by tobacco. Alcohol & Tobacco are killing the population!
Cannabis can release pain of about 5 different type of cancer. It is proven that those who smoke Cannabis once or more weekly have long reported fewer episodes of depression! Another example is that migraines can be treated with medical Cannabis. And sometimes it works even better than regular migraine medication!!
Let’s look at the first state that legalized it, which is Colorado! WOW!!! It’s doing better than before. Why!? Because is getting $10 billion annually thanks to Cannabis taxes. After that, $33 million of the taxes goes to education & school nurses. To make matters better Colorado crime has decreased!!!
Therefore, is not bad for the United States Of America to legalize Cannabis!!!
