__**THE BIG QUESTION: WEED OR NO WEED?**__
 * There had been a lot of argument and this is one of the biggest controversial topic ever. The big question, should we legalize marijuana for medical use or should we keep it unlegalized. as far as we know marijuana has been for a very long time. as of matter of fact it has been around since 2727 b.c. Yet there has not been a single record that they used it to cure diseases or any medical use. They used it to get high or just have a good time. so what makes us think that we should legalize it? for some reason its unlegalized. trying to legalize it by saying its for a medical use is just an excuse of pot heads to smoke weed but without getting in trouble. thats why I'm against legalizing marijuana!**


 * Even though they say its for medical use it doesn't meet all the medical use standards. The FDA didn't approve the use of marijuana as a medical use. Every medicine here in America has to be approved by FDA for it to be considered medically approved. so marijuana doesn't do the exception. we say its for a medical use so we can smoke weed without getting in trouble. we say that the government could benefit from it and could make money by taxing weed selling. but to be honest there would a lot more problems legalizing it. like controlling it because since its legal a lot more people are gonna be buying it. its going to be easier for teenagers to get weed.**


 * We say it could be used for medical use but actually there has been babies born with mental illness due to smoking marijuana while being pregnant. we could say lets not give it to the pregnant but marijuana can be very addictive. so one way or another they would get marijuana then when the babies are gonna be born with illness. we really want this to happen? making legalized would not help it. it would actually make it ten time worse.**


 * Marijuana doesn't let you think clearly, and it makes you want it more and more. it very addicting and more common users are people from 16-28 meaning young adults. like people form high schools and college. marijuana right now isn't hard to get. being legalized would make it so much easier to get and more people would start using. people that already use it would use it even more. more potheads setting around home not doing anything but setting around and using weed all day. more kids would use it and it would be a bigger mess. kids using it in school and in public area. it would be really hard to control and thats not really what we want.**


 * I hope that after reading this we do the right thing and leave it like it is. if we really don't want for our generation to go down the toilet lets do the right thing when we still have time. its not to late cause we haven't legalized it yet. if we legalize weed then were going to be wanting to legalize other drugs. lets make the right decision while still have time. we can do this! its not to late to make the right choice!**
