I was gave an assignment in why marijuana should be legalized...I really need help. Can someone please?

Question

Can someone give me a few reasons why it should be legal because I need about 5 reasons so I can start researching them. Thanks and I really appreciate it!

Answer 1

By the way, you want NORML (the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Legislation), not "normal."

Challenge anyone to give you one good reason why alcohol is legal and marijuana is not. One good reason. There isn't one.

Answer 2

A compelling practical reason for decriminalising marijuana, is the high cost of policing its use in the community, where its high common use and comparatively low risk, deflect resources from policing the more dangerous but less common hard drugs such as heroin, cocaine and amphetamines.

Answer 3

I'd look at the netherlands, it's crime rate; it's smoking weed rate; the fact it is legal to sell it there and compare.
