Cannabis - legalize or not?
Almost everyone knows cannabis and knows that it is an illegal drug. But is cannabis really a drug, or has it been called "only" by humans as a drug? What about sugar? Is not it also a drug? What about tobacco? This is also a drug, a drug that kills many people.
In Germany is already discussed for a long time whether cannabis should be legalized.
In the neighboring country Netherlands, the possession of 30 grams of cannabis has been tolerated since 1976.
Since 1995, the regulations have been tightened and only 5 grams per person are allowed.
The age limit increased from 16 to 18 years.
Nevertheless, the politicians are not in agreement and I think it will take a while yet until something changes.
My question to you:
Do you think it is right to legalize cannabis and sell the cannabis under supervision?
Or do you think that cannabis is an entry-level drug and can not be legalized under any circumstances?
I myself used to think cannabis is a drug, as I learned it in my education.
My friends started smoking at 16 and I did not think it was good. But did not know much about cannabis back then.
Today I see it very differently.
People who prefer to smoke at the weekend rather than to drink alcohol, I prefer much, they are friendly, not aggressive and have a positive overall appearance. Alcohol is the opposite.
Of course cannabis health is critical to see. Neither alcohol nor cannabis is healthy, but it is also human nature to get intoxicated. But why is not legalized cannabis although it is known that the consumption of cannabis is less harmful than alcohol.
I could put up pro and contra now but I would like to hear your opinion.
Let´s go!
