Why cannabis should be legalized!

The law on cannabis use is unenforceable and indefensible in a country in which alcohol and nicotine are legal, they have all been scientifically proven to cause health problems and in serious cases death but yet their legal. Cannabis has proven in so many different studies that the benefits oversee the disadvantages in the drug. Every drug has a side effect but cannabis can not cause death and therefore should be legalized.


Cannabis is a natural plant and unlike other drugs nothing is added to it. Cannabis has low health risks and is also being used for medicinal use for many different serious illnesses such as cancer, it can also be used as a pain killer and be used in treatments such as aids. Although studies have shown that cannabis can cause some mental health problems it can also benefit some mental health problems such as depression and anxiety.  

 
 
 

What is weed?

Cannabis, also known  as marijuana, and by numerous other names,is a preparation of the Cannabis plant intended for use as a psychoactive drug and as medicine. Pharmacological, the principal psychoactive constituent of cannabis is tetrahydrocannabinol (THC); it is one of 483 known compounds in the plant, including at least 84 other cannabinoids, such as cannabidiol (CBD), cannabinol (CBN), tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV), and cannabigerol (CBG).  For many, smoking cannabis is as natural and everyday as a cup of hot tea, and they find the drug helps make their life a little less stressful without unduly affecting their judgement or abilities.

 

The Effects

How it is used?

Cannabis can be smoked with or without tobacco, filtered through water, cooled or inhaled using all manner of drug paraphernalia, or simply eaten. If eaten, it's hard to calculate when it will take effect.

When cannabis is smoked the effects start usually quickly, most common effects of cannabis is feeling relaxed and happy.  Strong cannabis can also lead to pointless giggling, loss of inhibitions and an enhanced appreciation of music and colours.  Marijuana has also been reported to ease the pain, nausea and vomiting in advanced stages of cancer, AIDS and other serious illnesses.  Like all drugs, the effects of the drug can vary from one person to another, with factors like where you are, who you're with and your general state of mind all influencing the experience.  Most cannabis is pretty mild, although recent varieties such as skunk, northern lights and purple haze can have a very strong - and sometimes hallucinogenic - effect.  The physical effects of too much cannabis can result in bloodshot eyes, a dry mouth and sloth-like reflexes and some people have reported feeling anxious and paranoid after a heavy session.

Health risks

Health risks: Most of the health risks associated with cannabis are those linked with the tobacco it's usually smoked with. There have been suggestions that there is an extremely low risk of developing bronchitis or lung cancer from smoking cannabis resin by itself, although a $2 million study by the National Toxicology Program in the US "found absolutely no evidence" in these claims (see http://www.niehs.nih.gov/dirtob/bucher.htm for more info. Smoking cannabis has been known to cause mental health problems such as    schizophrenia, although studies show family history plays a mayor part.  Paranoia has been known in cannabis users.
