Why is pot illegal?

So you ****ed up and got a felony and kicked outta school for having/doing something illegal and the government is stupid? yeah sure. You think your generation is the first one to enjoy weed? There is a reason that you have to be a certain age to hold any given politcal office. Mainly cause younger people make stupid decisions. Everyone runs around saying "oh if so and so were legal, there would be less crime", who knows maybe there would. But I don't want to risk it on a maybe. Maybe things would be worse. Either way if you need a drug to add some element to your life, it's f'in sad.

your so right. you feel a little better now. maybe you should go burn one , im just messing with you, but just so you know it turned out to be a good thing, bc i realized how much i took for granted. and just the arrest sobered me up, for almost 2 years now. i just dont think you should jump to conclusions about ppl, "if you need a drug to add some element in your life, its f'in sad". say that to someone who is an addict. i just dont think that it should be illegal. i think alcohol should. alot less deaths, especially in cars, and alot less violence period. but that is just my opinion. so take that however you want.

I wasn't saying you were the one who needed a drug to make your life better, more of a generalization. I suppose I could've made it a bit more clear on who I was talking about. Your original post made it seem (at least to me) that you were blaming the government and school for your f up. If that was not the case I'm sorry for the mix up. If you learned something outta it, then you are better then 9/10ths of the ppl who get busted for it.

Well when you go a university to play hockey for them and when you get the boot they win nationals, that will wake you up a little. Especially seeing all of them with there huge ass rings that they have on all the the time knowing that you should have one as well, then I don't know what would. Oh and a felony helped with that as well. But yea I know ppl that have been arrested a bunch of times and never change
