		<description>Weed is actually suppose to relax you, who&#039;s to say it works for everyone? Who&#039;s to say weed is good? Everyone has their own beliefs and everyone needs to RESPECT that. This generation is lacking the respect. What happened to kill the person with kindess? Now it&#039;s kill the pserson with a gun and run. Stop arguing and respect other peoples OPINION. This means that nobody is right nor wrong. Stop arguing and get on with your life.</description>

		<description>Our facts are more supported than yours. Give it up. Marijuana should be legal. You know somethings wrong when people in your country are trying to make a plant illegal. It&#039;s a users choice to use the substance, and a lot of people would agree to that. Thanks.</description>

		<description>It really bugs me when people say &quot;Give back to Society&quot; and &quot;Grow up and do something with your life&quot; when arguing about people who are FOR legalization.  I smoke every single day after a long day of work, lifting, and being productive..I work 6 days a week sometimes 10 hours a day do to 2 jobs, and also lift 6 days a week.  Right out of High School I&#039;m trying to get more experience to progress in my career, and am building up my credit while doing so.  Now every night I hit my vaporizer and get a little high. Nobody around me knows that I smoke, because I do it responsibly and to help me relax and sleep GREAT at night. 
What Im trying to prove is if people can Drink &quot;Responsibly&quot; than people can without a doubt Smoke &quot;Responsibly&quot;.

ANNUAL AMERICAN DEATHS CAUSED BY DRUGS
TOBACCO …………………… 400,000
ALCOHOL …………………… 100,000
ALL LEGAL DRUGS ………….20,000
ALL ILLEGAL DRUGS ……….15,000
CAFFEINE …………………….2,000
ASPIRIN ………………………500
MARIJUANA …………………. 0

Oh and even if your not responsible, It is still a million times safer than any other substance that any teenager can get there hands on.</description>

		<description>marijuana supposed public enemy number one , as coined by a cess pool of politicians who thought they knew what they were talking about but really didnt. 

back in the 40s they made marijuana seem like crack and people would rob you for pot money. Now how many pot junkies run around robbing places for marijuana? NONE. How many pot related fatalities not related to driving ? NONE, Sure todays youth may smoke marijuana with their friends but would you rather have them smoking sopmething that comes from the earth naturally or snacking down oxycodone , hydros and ecstasy  ? i think you choose weed. I know there are alot of concerned parents out there saying marijuana is bad and in the very long term it can make you lazy and stupid, THATS TRUE ILL ADMIT THAT, but after a long day of work or for a celebratory treat, some people drink a few brewskies, and some smoke a bowl. 

its really pointless that its illegal conisdering the billions of dollars the economy would make not to mention hemp related products and energy. with marijuana legalized the economy would boom while the tobacco companies would still sell cigarettes, this wouldnt change. PLUS, the drug cartels would have one less drug to kill people over. SURE people shouldnt drive while smoking but then again you shouldnt drink either. HOW many teens lives are ruined because of a pot charge they get with thier friends. 

I smoke marijuana and i write stories because it eases my mind off the stress of the day. plus i have anxiety and depression. Marijuana helps sooth these horrible feelings plus giving me a creative state of mind to write stories. LEGALIZE MARIJUANA !!!!!</description>

		<description>the legalisation of marijuana is probably the best idea in the world. The beautiful but subtle euphoria of a marijuana high helps you relax prompting you to approach anything with a very different attitude.. Imagen a world with a low crime rate.. all because every body was too stoned to move.!!!</description>

		<description>I grew the marijuana for over a decade, I had my High points as well as a few random unexpected follies, as can occur in a not so sterile indoor space.  A friend of mine grew over an acre worth of weed outside scattered around his fifty acres of land and his saying was &quot;Why drink and drive when you can smoke and fly?&quot;  I totaled a car, ended up in a coma for almost two months from &quot;Legal&quot; substances such as prescription medication and alcohol, though used impulsively made my car run into a wall at a pretty high speed I think.  If I were just stoned from the reefer, I probably would not have wrecked into a wall at top speed.  I smoked the marijuana from the age of fifteen until my drunken accident at almost thirty and other that possession arrests, never had a downfall from it.  I have been promoting legalization for my lifetime!  I must criticize the 15 year old for his insulting misspelling in his post.  Free the plant that grows natural and do away with the manmade chemicals!</description>

		<description>The experience of traumatic stress is very common, and an estimated 10 percent of women and 5 percent of men experience PTSD at some point in their life. 

The risk for developing PTSD varies greatly with different kinds of trauma. Women are especially likely to develop PTSD following rape or other forms of sexual assault. Combat exposure has been found to be the most common cause of PTSD in men.A new study conducted by psychology experts at Haifa University in Israel shows that marijuana used promptly to rats that suffer emotional stress can effectively block the creation of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). 

As long as the rodents were addressed with weed within 24 hours of the traumatic encounter, PTSD symptoms were avoided. The study was released in the publication Neuropsychopharmacology. &lt;a title=&quot;Marijuana cures PTSD in rats, Israeli study shows&quot; href=&quot;http://www.newsytype.com/11695-marijuana-ptsd-rats/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Marijuana cures PTSD in rats, Israeli study shows&lt;/a&gt;  If this is tested in human are they going to legalize usage of weeds for medical purposes?</description>
