Why are you being so aggressive towards me? Please stay on topic. The question was simply do you think MJ should be legalized. I've talked about the side effects of MJ and never mentioned Alcohol or caffeine. Please stay on topic or please leave. 

Oh no not you again. WEED ISN'T BAD
 
MJ effects 
brain development. 
when used heavily by young people effects thinking, memory lasting for a long time or permant
Long term study showed that young people from 13 to 38 lost 8 points in their IQ
Lost of cognitive abilities were not fully restored in adults who quit smoking
Irritates the lungs 
frequent smokers can have the same problems has smokers of tobacco 
heightens the risk of lung infections 
NOT YET KNOWN IF IT MJ SMOKING CONTRIBUTES TO RISK OF LUNG CANCER 
RAISES THE HEART RATE 20 to 100 PERCENT EFFECT CAN LAST FOR 3 HOURS
A NUMBER OF STUDIES HAVE LINKED CHRONIC MJ TO MENTAL ILLNESS 
High doses of MJ can produce temp psychotic reaction 
Can worsen schizophrenia in people who do have it.
Those who start at a young age are at risk for later problems
MJ used during pregnancy is associated with risk of neurobehavioral problems in babies
 
​Seriously impairs motor coordination and judgement. 
 
IS MJ ADDICTIVE? 
Contrary to common belief, marijuana is addictive. Estimates from research suggest that about 9 percent of users become addicted to marijuana; this number increases among those who start young (to about 17 percent, or 1 in 6) and among people who use marijuana daily (to 25-50 percent).
 
Long-term marijuana users trying to quit report withdrawal symptoms including irritability, sleeplessness, decreased appetite, anxiety, and drug craving, all of which can make it difficult to abstain.
 
Ladies and Gentlemen. With all of these health effects is it really a good idea to legalize this drug? I mean really. A number of studies have linked chronic MJ to mental illness and can produce a psychotic reaction in high doses. People who suffer  schizophrenia will experience worse side effects when high. Let me ask you this. What is so glamorous about being high? Is it to look cool to your friends or make your life seem less miserable?

They are all brick walls when we know the side effects. Good job. Ignorance at it's finest!
