Pot should be kept illegal.
The issue of Marijuana being legalised has been debated since as early as the 1960s. Our society needs to accept the fact that If marijuana is legalised that it could destroy young minds. Minds that might even be our future leaders. Minds that we could be depending on for our answers. Young minds. As I said before, it has been debated about being legalised since as early as the 1960s. My point is that its been debated for so long, that every time it being legalised has lost. So why would you keep debating about it if you just know youre going to lose?
Following up to my previous point earlier, giving it to the young public will destroy their minds. Do you really want young people who could maybe just be our future leaders smoking pot all their lives? Would you really put all your faith in someone who smokes pot? Someone, who half the time doesnt even know what they are saying because they are smoking pot? I definitely wouldnt. In 1979, a whopping 13.2% of kids 12 years and older have been known to smoking pot. In 2008 the percentage went down to 6.1%. Yes, this is a fantastic result, but it still needs to come down. How would you like it if you found your child walking around or sitting in their room smoking pot? I dont think you would be to happy, would you?
Smoking marijuana will lead to mental illnesses, which could lead to schizophrenia etc , Which could then lead to rehab. And rehab could cost you from 500-100,000 dollars. Spending so much money on rehab could leave you bankrupt, and what if rehab doesnt work? What if that was all just a waste of time and money? It is also just as bad or even worse, than drinking an driving. These drugs can also lead to bad teeth, bloodshot eyes, bags underneath your eyes. These drugs also make you very, very hungry so that could lead to obesity. Marijuana also makes you do and say things that you dont mean, E.g. Physical and verbal abuse.
