Why people care about a stupid drug is because of the benefits that it can have. If you have someone close to you that has tried everything prescribed to control a debilitating disease and nothing worked, then found weedrked really well yet it was illegal to use.....then maybe you might understand.
Marijuana on it's own i's harmful enough? Jesus, take a look around you and tell me that a Marijuana is harmful. What is your basis for this? Is it the studies done in an uncontrolled environment? Imagine If we made everything illegal that MIGHT cause mental health issues down the road. What could we possibly keep legal?
We all know what the real gateway drug is, and it's available for sale on every block and kids can easily get it. So socially acceptable that it's amazing people would ever think about opposing a plant.
