Honest question, isn't everywhere basically legalizing it?

No, still the minority have some status of legality and only 4 states so far allow recreational.
But it is headed that way clearly. Good.
Well now over half have it medically legalized, so yeah, it's trending up.
I don't pay much attention to political issues that don't personally affect me and this one doesn't, but I'm surprised, I thought it was almost unanimous for medical and like 50% recreational.
I can't imagine a legitamite reason to not allow medical marijuana.
It does effect you though.
In my opinion they need to completely legalize it because having it illegal sends the wrong message to young people who try drugs for the first time. If they try weed and they see its not going to kill them or destroy their lives, they might think to themselves what else are they lying about. So they dare to try harder drugs like meth, and that will destroy their life. Meth users will then committ all sorts of crimes. Which will effect you and your community sooner or later. It all comes back around. Sure, people will still use meth, but I beleive less would if we were more truthful with the youth.

I know a lot of people who do drugs, but I know no one who was like "Damn they lied about this weed stuff. Want to do meth? I'm sure it's awesome too".
Of course it doesnt go down exactly like that, but you are a fool if you dont believe it. Its like believing music doesnt have an effect on young people. It just does. You just cant see it when you are young. We will talk when you get older.
I really don't believe it as a person who does drugs and was lied to about the dangers of marijuana.
