Are you against the legalization of Weed? Why or why not?

Personally, I believe that weed, no matter how people say it is better than cigarettes, is still disgusting and should never be legal. But does that stop people from using and buying?

Additionally, What do you think the age should be to buy drug paraphernalia?

whether a joint, a spliff, or a stick, smoking is bad no matter the form. Smoking kills and there is no doubt about that. Even smokers will agree with me that smoking kills. Some people especially some Jamaicans prefer calling weed a 'natural herb' differentiating it from addictive and harmful substances such as nicotine. There is nothing wrong in using natural herbs to cure diseases because that is what God gave us in the first place. I may be wrong but I have been hearing a lot about "medical marijuana" lately which supports the idea that marijuana or weed is indeed a natural herb that can be used to cure diseases. I don't smoke at all but In my opinion, for those who think weed has been very helpful to them, there is nothing wrong in using ganja or weed if used properly. I don't think putting a little bit of the natural herb in your food is harmful but smoking it is rather very harmful because there is nothing good in smoking.

Cocaine is a very dangerous drug but I have heard the coca leaves from which we get cocaine is not that harmful because the Coca leaves are rich in vitamins, protein, calcium, iron, fiber, etc. The first time I saw some Colombians chew coca leaves on TV, I thought those people were "high" but I read some articles about the coca leaves and came to realize later on that the coca leaves although they contain cocaine, are not as harmful as cocaine itself.

Maybe we don't know much about Ganja or weed but for now, it will be a very good idea to keep it away from people especially teens. There are some good things about ganja but I have also seen several people turned madmen because of too much ganja so I think it will be a good idea to keep it away for now until we are very sure about all the good and harmful effects of ganja or weed.

Ganja is good for the soul. God created ganja on a special day and God took his time and without a rush he created ganja to serve man. God created ganja to help free the soul out of bondage. Ganja energizes the spirit and clears the eyes. There is no sorrow ganja cannot wipe away and there is no sickness ganja cannot cure. Ganja is Jah herb. Legalize ganja and help free the nations one spliff at a time. One Love!
