Legalization would mean a lower price; thus, related crimes (like theft) would be reduced.

Marijuana needs to be legalized!
It is not dangerous at all. The only reason people think it is bad is because it has been illegal for 70 years and people have grown up with the government saying its bad when its really not. The government has no right to say we can't use the herb that God has created. Besides it makes you feel good and relieves stress. No one causes any trouble while they use it because it makes you feel peaceful. Just about everyone in the US has used it at some point. Also by making it legal it would open up more jobs and probably get us out of this economic crisis. Just the thought of people being locked up for using the herb is absolutly insane!

Before the government wrongly accuses people of it they need to try it first, then they'll see it's a blessing and not a curse.
I hope people see this message so the government will finally do whats right.

I am a long time firm supporter of marijuana legalization.The United State's government's current policies are completely assanine.The prohibition of marijuana is costing taxpayers entirely too much money.It is absolutely ridiculous to put someone in jail for marijuana possession or even for growing it.Recent surveys have shown that about 12% of federal and state prisoners are incarcerated for marijuana offenses.I do not see how it is moral or even in the taxpayers best interest to jail people for marijuana.
Another interesting point is that prohibiting a drug that is so commonly used(in fact it is the main cash crop in many states)only gives gangs and organized crime a very lucrative source of income.A great example is the prohibition of alcohol.After the jackasses in government made alcohol illegal organized crime flourished and crime rates and violence increased dramatically.
Legalizing marijuana would generate tax revenue and create jobs.Some critics would argue that marijuana prohibition creates jobs but those jobs are not productive at all.We basically pay the DEA to go out and cost us money.STOP THE ASSANINE PRACTICE OF MARIJUANA PROHIBITION!!!!!!
