Washington, Colorado made it legal to have, but not buy and sell marijuana today. I believe this is a step backwards for society and our legal system. I hope other states and the federal government do not follow the same path.
The arguments for the use of medical marijuana are not strong. Some parents of children as young as two years old maintain that medical marijuana helps treats conditions such as severe epilepsy, severa autism and ADHD. However, I know that they are enough brilliant minds in America to develop cure for diseases that medical marijuana is being used to treat. Legalizing marijuana for medicinal use only means that scientists will probably stop developing drugs for disorders.
Secondly, the Federal government has spent much time warring against drugs even stopping the exportation of drugs from other countries. With marijuana now legal, our courts will be filled with people arguing with judges and prosecutors about drug possession, claiming that because they could not get a prescription, they had to buy marijuana from a local seller. Or even claiming that they forgot they already had one ounce of marijuana, the legal dose, in their pockets.
Washington, Colorado's action only begs the question: if marijuana becomes legal, will cocaine be next?
About Me
- Sandra Remilien
- Sandra Remilien is an American. Sandra Remilien is a Christian Miami native who loves to write. She is currently unemployed because a jealous, illiterate Haitian witch named Jeaccinette Philogene has been doing witchcraft to monitor her so she can do witchcraft on every job that she applies to so they do not hire her. Jeaccinette did witchcraft to get the password to her blog and gave someone and Guylene and Luna, who did witchcraft on her, the password to her blog so they could add things, change what she wrote so words are misspelled and it does not make sense and so people do not know the truth about the witchcraft that she did because she is stupid. Sandra Remilien does not like Haitians because they do witchcraft. Jeaccinette is doing witchcraft to make people say Sandra Remilien is Haitian and was born in Haiti so she can do witchcraft to make Sandra Remilien uplift Haitians. Sandra received a masters degree in journalism from Columbia University in 2008 and a bachelors degree in print journalism from the University of Miami in 2006.
