EDIT: I'm going to make a second one of these, which will have sources to back up each claim and also dispute the things that people are falsely presenting as facts in the comments section. It is nice to see people are having a discussion, however, instead of just screaming abuse at each other.

Seriously, aside from Morbid-Chanel I think weed is the main thing you faggots get butt-hurt about.
I see you all arguing with second-hand information that you got off a friend or you think you remember your dad saying once.

This isn't pro-weed propaganda, I don't give a shit if you smoke or not. These are just facts.

Enjoy.

I hate to say it, but actually weed IS addictive...
Not physically, but mentally addictive.
And no, that doesn't mean you 'Just like to get high", it means your mind starts to need it to function. Believe it or not, ANYTHING can be mentally addictive I.E. chocolate, internet, WEED, even eating toothpaste.
All physically VS mentally means is that instead of your body shutting down without it, it still functions, however your mind will almost cease to function without it. You FEEL like you need it, and it's just as real as a physical addiction to you. The only difference is one will cause damage to your system, and one will not.

All the rest of that is pretty true, but I have seen weed wreck lives because someone didn't have the willpower to tell themselves no.

All the stoner-junkies can thumb this down if they want, but I'm not saying anything is wrong with smoking weed so long as you still maintain control over youself, just simply correcting a mistake made here.

Weed is good for Alzheimer's patients, yet it increases one's chances of getting Alzheimer's.

Also not funny. Just another post for circle jerking comments.

You know why weed is illegal? Cus if it was legal, the alcohol prices were going down like hell.

None of this even fucking matters - this site is full of fucking idiots who seem to achieve some sort of satisfaction by lying about 'smoking a bowl'. All of you need to get over 'that one time you smelled some weed maybe' and grow up. Honestly, some of this bull shit I see is just so fucking obviously false, "Yeah I like weed, true story bro" It's just dripping with so much fa­g­gotry I want to cry. It's true some of the stoner content is funny, but motherfucking honey-smoked dicks I don't need to hear about some pathetic guy who was under some placebo effect and started spewing out a load of bullshit about being high. God damn it I bet most of these stoner comics don't even resemble the real thing at all, I wouldn't know I don't smoke it but I don't need to to know how stupid it all is. Now please shower me in your red thumbs, each one resembles a stab of reality to someone out there that just feels like bathing in liquid sex to me (No I'm not a troll). Rant-fucking-over.

The only way I support the legalization of marijuana is for medical purposes. I don't support smoking weed for the intent to abuse it. Inhaling anything into your lungs is detrimental to your health and if you smoke marijuana early in your life, it risks damage for your developing brain. There's more, of course. But I don't judge a person by their lifestyle. I stay away from drugs, but if someone else chooses to use them, it isn't my decision and I don't preach to others on how they should live their life.

Lots of things cause cancer and lots of things help the healing of cancer. It does not mean weed is the leading cause of cancer nor the leading solution to cancer.
Everything is addictive as you mentioned. But that is not what is keeping weed illegal. If it was, then there would be plenty of more things would be illegal.
What is keeping weed illegal? It's like you mentioned OP, that image all weed users have is a stupid stoner who wastes his/her life as a non contributing member to society. I don't have a statistic that would confirm that image though, but going with what you see and hear from media and social interaction, that is the image of weed smokers I have.

I don't think weed smokers are bad people nor immoral cause there are plenty of worse things for your body. I just find it ridiculous that you throw around these facts like it is supposed to change anything. Put down the bowl of fugnions and start acting like a productive member of society. Prove that to the world. Prove that there is nothing inhibiting of weed from the economic and societal activities of everyday life.

And you can't due this with scientific statistics. Every weed smoker has to change their image and their habits. It only takes one to ruin everything you have built up.

Wow, where to begin with this post... how about reality.
1. The first comment about weed being non-addictive is false. While you may only be psychologically addicted to the substance, the obsession will manifest itself in physical signs. It is a placebo effect, or stomata form disorder. Thus making it an actual addiction. Furthermore, the statement, “just stop when ever you want,” is antithetical to your previous statement about it being psychologically addictive.
2. The causes of schizophrenia, though thought to be genetically linked, are relatively unknown. So justifying a smoke by saying no one you are related to is schizophrenic is unfounded. In addition, schizophrenia appears in males around the ages of 18-25, so you will die far more quickly.
3. Is correct. How ever, in a series of studies performed by the Harvard Medical School, marijuana does indeed cause lung cancer in rats.
If you smoke a joint have fun, but do not be a pussy and back your pleasures with imaginary science.

Anything can be addictive, it doesn't have to have an addictive substance to be addictive .

2 side notes:

1. No, marijuana does not cause schizophrenia, however it does increase the risk of developing schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, etc.

2. Weed itself does not cause cancer, but actually smoking weed does increase the risk of developing cancer, because you would be inhaling smoke and possibly ash, which are both carcinogens, obviously this applies to smoking joints and stuff like that, you`d be just fine with a vaporizer or whatever.

The only thing on here that would support legalization is the third one. But medical marijuana is already legal. So now you just sound retarded.

Next time, use a font were you can tell the difference between periods and commas.
