Yes, I think there's already a topic on this but those are from a really long time ago. As you all know Marc Emery (the prince of pot) ran for Mayor of Vancouver in 1996 and ever since he's been fighting for legalization for marajuana in Canada. And he owns his very own shop in Vancouver with a vapour lounge in it.
http://cannabisculture.com/articles/5310.html The link above shows you that on Nov 15th 2008 Cannabis Activists are getting elected all across BC. I live in Vancouver and I'm a huge supporter of Marc Emery. Im so glad that he is still fighting for legalization. I've been to his shop many times before and I've met Marc Emery himself there. He's a really nice guy and I think with time marajuana will be legal here. What do you guys think of legalizing marajuana?
Reason for edit: It's "marijuana," not "marajuana."

QUOTE(futura @ Oct 19 2010, 09:10 PM)  I don't understand anyone's reasoning as to why it shouldn't be legalized.  the only even remotely valid point I've heard is the whole gateway drug thing, but in all honesty I think if they make it legal it will be just as much a gateway drug as tobacco. The way I see it, the gateway drug issue comes not from wanting harder drugs, but wanting to do something more dangerous or more illegal. |

You should watch The Union it's a really eye opening documentary on the topic it presents all sides of the argument, but in the end I don't see any reason why it shouldn't be legal.

I think if it will be legalized it probably would definitely be regulated. Same thing with pills/medication. It is beneficial for us but can be abused as well, by anyone at that.
I believe it can do more good than harm! |
