Opinion on weed?

[WhiteFlame]

First of all, OP, it's not a drug. A drug is man-made, manufactured; marijuana is merely a plant. With that resolved, I don't see anything wrong with it. I wouldn't care if it was legalized, I'd actually prefer it just being decriminalized. Merely because I don't trust it in our government's hands. If it makes you happy go for it, nobody should stop you from doing something you enjoy with virtually no consequences to anyone else.

For the record I do smoke, if that affects my opinion or what-not.

Weed contains THC which is a drug and therefor making the whole marijuana plant a drug when used in smoking since it has these effect. If marijuana didn't have THC your right it would be a plant.

Its like saying penicillin is just a mould. It's a drug because of its effects.
