For several years, it has existed a constantly
struggle about cannabis’s legalization. Nowadays, there isn’t any country where
pot is 100% legal although some states allow people to consume and to cultivate
marijuana for personal consumption. Despite the moral consequences that the
completely legalization of this drug could bring to any existing society, the medical
benefits and the cultural power that marijuana has is even stronger.
The main reason that cannabis users give in order to
legalize marijuana, it is because the existence of numerous studies where have
proven medical benefits in THC, the main component of this drug. It is also
very important to think about the culture behind marijuana. Being a very
harmless substance, much less than tobacco and alcohol, marijuana has a peace
message. As the leading effect is to slow down almost every muscle of your
body, the main consumers of this drug are commonly very peaceful.
It was very strange that looking for reasons against
legalizing marijuana, I could only find moral motivations for not allowing the
free consume of this drug. There are not scientific facts to assert that marijuana
is a bad drug and a harmful one. I believe for that reason it has been so
controversial and difficult to reach an agreement about if we have to legalize
it or not. And what do you think about this?
