		<description>Politicians are 10 years behind the times when it comes to hemp use. People have been fighting for a long time against marijuana and pot prohibition with some movement going on now. Still too slow for those caught up in the jail system for possessing a little weed. Our freedoms have been trampled on by folks who know nothing about how beautiful cannabis can be for someones life, if one learns &lt;a href=&quot;http://how-to-grow-cannabis.info&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;how to grow cannabis&lt;/a&gt;. Keep up the good work.</description>

		<description>Grammar FAIL

Your health risks argument is rubbish. Marijuana may be linked with psychosis, but so are tons of other neurotropic medications available with a prescription. Heck, alcohol (which is legal) is strongly linked to Korsakoff&#039;s amnesia. Everything comes with health risks. You&#039;ve got to have a better argument than that.

The rest of your argument is just circular blather. If your goal is to prove that cannabis should stay illegal, you shouldn&#039;t build from an assumption that it&#039;s not OK to use cannabis.

I came to this website looking for a solid argument against legalizing cannabis. What a disappointment. Why is it so hard to get an objective perspective on the cannabis issue?</description>

		<description>I agree to cannabis becoming legal, it is not as harmful as everything else people are taking and doesnt seem to have many bad points, Just a high from natural plants,

		<description>Lol, this article is total bullshit. I agree with those above stating that this is just some overly protective parental unit, who has no idea what the good sides to legalizing weed are. Anyone that tries to argue against the legalization of weed either has never tried it, or well, has never tried it, an should keep their mouths closed. Honestly, isn&#039;t this a free country? If I want to smoke some weed, than screw it, I think I should have that right. It&#039;s all natural, of course smoking it will effect your lungs a bit. But it&#039;s nowhere near as bad as smoking cigarettes as some try to claim, that is total BS. I used to smoke cigarettes and weed, I still smoke weed but I quit cigs...and I feel normal again. I feel like I can breath easier, I can go for a run again an all that fun stuff I held back on due to cigarettes. Weed has had no effect on me as far as my lungs go. Also, anyone who believes weed should remain illegal should see the movie Super-High-Me.</description>

		<description>wake up and smell the haze! are you serious? dude, you probably never smoked a joint in your life. you probably go to church every sunday. probably one of those i believe in my country type of people. you sir, have been had by the government. if you are still reading (by the way im suprised if you are because you strike me as the narrow-minded, i know im right why am i even reading this? type of person) i want to tell you how it is. your beleifs and research are completely wrong. How many families were ruined? how many kids killed by drunk drivers? how many died of alcoholism or alcohol poisoning?.. MILLIONS. How many died from smoking cigarettes? MILLIONS. How many died from smoking weed? NONE. you would have to smoke your bodyweight in weed to overdose. you wouldnt be able to finish a half ounce to yourself in one night. the government made it illegal because they were racist but twisted the reason to make it seem like its bad for you. millions of people, one of them being you, believed this propaganda and its been illegal for so long now that to you it seems right for it to be illegal. Understand so far? for example why does the government allow  you to drink toxic liquid (alcohol), inhale toxic smoke (cigarettes), make you pay obsurd amounts of money for prescription pills that have 100 side effects and destroy your organs, put a toxin like fluoride in our water and toothpaste but wont let you smoke an all natural product like marijuana? because they dont want you to expand your mind. to see the truth. to have a good time. to relax. to naturally dull pain. Because of people like you marijuana continues to stay illegal. people like you run the country, all you ignorant, spoiled rich your whole life, bastards. youve never been in the real world. your arguments are obviously bullshit, its so expected of people like you who oppose weed. A bunch of impossible facts for a few sentences then its oohhh the hard drugs will be legal soon after pot would be and its a gateway drug. i know people who have done heroin before they even touched weed by the way. but not before alcohol or cigarettes=). because those are the real gateway drugs. i dont know about you but id rather have people smokin weed over my house rather than people drinking liquor, breaking everything, vomiting, fighting, and acting retarded. because weed doesnt have those side effects, not even a hangover! i suggest you smoke pot before you put it down. if legalized it could help our economy greatly and make the world a little less ridiculous. and you would feel good too.</description>
