Conclusion
So to conclude this whole blog, America should really begin to try different methods to benefit our country!
Marlboro Greens
Because people discuss legalizing weed so much, the Marlboro Ciggarette company is even designing a ciggarette to smoke without the tobacco but to be replaced by weed instead.
The Netherlands
The Netherlands does not incarcerate if caught with drugs, they send the person to rehab to help addicts. Weed is kind of legal there, and they have lower incarceration rates.
Health
weed is used with cancer patients to help ease pain vs. a narcotic pain pill such as hydrocodone which are addicting. Plus it also helps with seizures, migraines, and OCD.
Racial Discrimination
I was learning in my intro to criminal justice course that many police officicers discriminate against black or hispanic looking people especially in cases dealing with drugs especially in lower income areas. My professor stated however that high drug use occurs often in middle class areas often instead. Could weed being illegal be a cause towards racial discrimination??
Has weed ever killed anyone?
Alcohol, if abused, can cause violence, sickness, and even death. People make rash decisions such as driving under the influence which can and has resulted in the killing of themselves and other people. Weed has never killed anyone, it is impossible to overdose on. I was thinking about this earlier today, when people went out to bars and it was the norm to smoke rather than drink I wonder how many people's lives could have been saved..
