The issue which I will be focusing on today, is the issue with an illegial drug named marijuana, AKA Mary Jane. Marijuana was introduced as a medical stimulant in 1972, since then 14 out of 50 states have accepted its uses. A major court cases which have occured about the issue of marijuana are Conant v. Walters. In this court case California had passes its use on medical marijuana regulations in 1996, but the government threatned any physcian that used it could result in the loss of their license. The court decided that marijuana could be used as a medical treatment for some patients. In 2010, the District of Columbia approved its uses of marijuana under medical circumstances only. These permit cancer, HIV, AIDS, Chronic diseases, and etc. The prime issue with this is whether it can be considered an illegial drug or should be legalized as a medical preference. In its defense mary jane has been known to relax and relieve numerous dieases and disorders such as HIV, glaucoma, nausea, and migrains as well as others. Some physicians also agree that this new "theraputic" sensation can certainly relieve the body and internal systems. But reports show that the growth of smoking mary jane could also increase the percentage of teen and adolescents drug abuse. Also since when has smoking eber been good for the body? Smoking has been shown to increase the chance of cancer. Is that what we want for our kids in the next generation?
This video contains contents on which mothers in California support the legalization of mary jane. I don't agree with the mothers statements, I feel that mothers should embrace whatever is the best choice for their children at hand. Looking back from the information we just learned we discovered that children smoking even marijuana at such a young age can introduce children to more lethal and deadly drugs.
This video agrees with the last as in marijuana should be legalized but also would propose the idea of just like alchol, you would have to be a certain age to purchase it.
