- It works and when something does as advertised it is near impossible to keep from people.
- It is not the dreaded "gateway" drug as propaganda suggests.
- Nobody has died directly from ingesting or using it.
- There are currently laws on the books that would prevent driving under its influence.
- Just having something legal does not make more people use it.
- It is only dangerous due to it being illegal and people dealing in the black market.
- Legalizing it would make it a taxable product.
- The US Government has spent billions fighting it, hundreds of millions additionally each year.
- It currently costs tax payers vast sums of money to keep marijuana related criminals behind bars.
- It puts a burden on the courts with marijuana related cases and violations.
- It was initially made illegal purely for racial reasons and not scientific or medical and that is reason enough.
- It would then allow for US farmers and industries to proceed with hemp production.
- It would open up the every medical research facility the ability to use and check for other possible medications using cannaboids.
- It would free up the man power of the DEA and other law enforcement agencies.
- It would allow proper education of its effects and demystify it to the youth.
- It would end the use of harmful chemical spraying and eradication due to US foreign policy.
