Second, most marjiuana could be considered organic as it is pure with no additives liek cigerettes, so how can the government regulate what is in it?
It's pure until someone tampers with it which is quite common. Government regulation could put a stop to this and the inherent dangers that come with it.

Thirdly, what about all the people that need cancer treatment but can't get it because the system is jammed with cancer patients who decided to smoke pot or tobacoo and were under the impression that it only affected themselves? Try telling them that smoking cigs and pot only affects the user and no one else.
Again this could only be improved by regulation. It's going to be around whether it's illegal or not, so why not take the money out of the dealers' hands at put it to good use instead?
