Pot bans in countries such as Honduras, Mexico, and Costa Rica are believed to be harder to force. After The legalization in Colorado and Washington, these countrues feel that protests are going to be more commin and the people are going to want it leagalized. They also worry about smuggling.

I think that pot shouldnt be legalized. Even if some people say its fun, i trhink the countries as a whole can be more preductive without it. I dont think Washington and Colorado should have leagalized it either because it puts more poeples health at risk.
There is a reason that it was illegal for so long! Even though they say it will help the economy,that seems like a selfish reason because it will affect many lives.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, Megan (and Elaine). Even if pot may be "fun" to smoke, it's not productive and isn't helping any of the problems countries have.
ReplyDeleteThis should be banned everywhere...no execptions.

I don't think that pot should be banned, hold on, hear me out. I think that before anyone does pot, they should look up the effects and know what it does to your body. Yes, it can be bad for you, there's no trying to cover that up. But, on the other hand, we're forgetting about medical marijuana. It DOES help some people. The people that use it for that reason really do need it.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Kendall. though some people are against it, Marjuana isn't all that harmful. It should be a choice! Some people with health issues need it! I agree that there should be a limited amount of places that people can smoke. (work, school) but the PLANT helps relieve stress and chill people out.
ReplyDeletemaking something like pot legal could lead to a higher crime/ injury rate. Maybe these people were not thinking about all of the bad things that can come from pot rather than just pleasing people.
ReplyDeletewow! this was really interesting, Im curious to see the out come of it
ReplyDeleteI don't understand why they would make it legal, it causes so many problems everywhere.
