Argumentative

Are you for or against the legalization of recreational marijuana use? I'd like any opinion or statement backed by legitimate articles/studies.

  • I have a couple points on marijuana legalization. A) If the most dangerous part of a drug is the punishment it carries if you're caught with its possession, the recreational and/or medical status of the drug should be revisited. It's mathematically impossible to overdose on marijuana; the amount you would have to ingest is too large for the amount of time you would have to do it in to have a lethal effect. B) My only balk at full recreational legalization is that we don't have a way of addressing public intoxication with marijuana. To my knowledge, there is not yet a field test for marijuana that can determine intoxication level. Unlike alcohol, marijuana effects different people in different ways. Alcohol generally effects people in a linear fashion with regards to drink numbers, ABV, and the person's height/weight. Marijuana doesn't work the same way, and we don't have a "breathalyzer for weed" type test.
