Why Marijuana Should Be Legal

I used this book as one of my sources for a college paper i wrote. My grade was a B+. I think my professor smoked. I should have smoked with him.

Easy to read, very informative. Helped me greatly with my research paper. Is a a great source to refer to when educating others.

We really need to take this issue seriously and consider the benefits of legalizing! I'm not a smoker, but have friends and family who are. They are upstanding, conscious, hardworking citizens who don't deserve to have to sneak around. We could alleviate so much financial stife in the US if we would be more open minded about this issue. And of course, the by-products are amazing too. The author has his facts straight and writes in an easy communicative style. Buy one for the republican in your family.

This is one of those books that really helps when you have people that back you into a corner and ask questions like "If its so harmless, then why is it still illegal?" it goes through the issues that arise when a debate about the plant comes to surface such as: *Our constitutional rights *criminal innocents *economic costs *health effects *hemp: industrial applications *medical applications *national security *sociological apects *Why it isn't legal I really enjoyed reading this book and learned a good deal from it. for those against legalization...DO YOUR RESEARCH FIRST, this book is an eye opener on the subject.

It's great to see this book out again. The authors make a perfect case for cannabis legalization by explaining established facts about constitutional rights, industrial uses of hemp, and the safety of the drug. They don't get bogged down in hundreds of references and citations, but everything they say has clear empirical support.
