http://www.createdebate.com/debate/show/Should_Marijuana_be_legalized http://www.createdebate.com/debate/show/Legalization_of_Marijuana_3 http://www.createdebate.com/debate/show/ Just three out of countless, countless debates on this topic. Find something new to talk about, people! On a side note, yes, it should be legal. Side: yes
heck yea it should. people are gonna do it anyways and all this is doing is putting people in jail and this could actually create more jobs =P. but it should be limited, like alcohol: no drinking and driving, must be sober to work etc. so yea, absolutely it should be legal. like gay marriage. are they afraid of a lack of babies? this world is over populated already. we don't have the resources to sustain our rapidly growing population. i hate to say this but we should also legalize suicide. Side: yes

Yes. Unfortunately, President Obama has lied to us all. He says that he's willing to keep government open and address issues that we find the most important. So far, the number one concern brought up by the internet is the legalization of marijuana, and every time he finds a way to dodge it. The largest petition on his website and they basically tell us that they're going to do nothing and will not give us a straight answer on why. Obama reminds me of Reagan, except that Reagan just didn't like weed and never said that he would address our concerns when we brought them up (especially in such numbers). No, more like Nixon, a liar who thinks that the president should have far more powers than delegated by the Constitution. Okay, a rant about Obama. I feel like I need to get my negative feelings out every once in a while in small numbers (as opposed to just being objective all the time). And since weed has been brought up on this site so many times, why not this debate? Side: yes

Making it illegal turns everyday citizens into criminals. The winner in the war on drugs is alcohol. For a drug that is in some ways not as bad as alcohol, some ways worse, but overall about on the same level, I think that it should be legalised. As mentioned by others, making it legal would be quite easy as you can apply the same laws as alcohol. Drug testing for drivers is now just as easy as alcohol testing so why not? Side: yes
