Who do you know act violent when high off of marijuana?

Should marijuana be legal? Yes i think so.I say yes for many reasons, economical relief,Lower crime rates/violence,less shooting/killings,and less crowded jails/ prisons.

First lets start by saying what is marijuana. According to (http://www.drugabuse.gov/marijbroch/marijparentstxt.html#What) and many other sites. Marijuana is a green, brown, or gray mixture of dried, shredded leaves, stems, seeds, and flowers of the hemp plant (Cannabis sativa). Cannabis is a term that refers to marijuana and other drugs made from the same plant. Strong forms of cannabis include sinsemilla (sin-seh-me-yah), hashish (“hash” for short), and hash oil. All forms of cannabis are mind-altering (psychoactive) drugs; they all contain THC (delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol), the main active chemical in marijuana. They also contain more than 400 other chemicals.Marijuana’s effect on the user depends on the strength or potency of the THC it contains. THC potency has increased since the 1970s and continues to increase still. The strength of the drug is measured by the average amount of THC in test samples confiscated by law enforcement agencies. For the year 2006, most ordinary marijuana contained, on average, 7 percent THC.

OK now how can this drug support my reasons to legalize it, When you experience the effects of the drug there's this ,mellow feeling where u just want relax. (http://www.mjlegal.org/violence.html) Marijuana is a Psychoactive Substances you don't want to get violent, you want to stay in that mellow feeling, where everything is funny, your more likely to be a victim of violence than the one committing a violent act. If half the thugs on the street could get high (without fear of getting caught) ;they would be siting or laying somewhere with there other high thugs(nobody get high alone).That obviously would lower crime rates.

If marijuana was sold in stores like cigarettes and beer, not only could you tax the product but u can also monitor the amount of the drug that is distributed. If marijuana is sold in stores half the thugs that make there money through trafficking this drug will loose money, customers and interest. With nowhere to sell this most common drug, territory and a reasons to shoot someone else, trying to take their territory for sales; will decline.

The government could make money(taxing marijuana), free up space in jail/prison (most of the occupants are there for reasons related to marijuana anyways) and prevent crimes. Its a win/win situation.This is just my reasons, agreeing or disagreeing is up to YOU. And one more fact cigarettes is more harmful than Marijuana and why isn't that illegal?
