A: I wish I knew the answer to that myself.Here’s the deal. I’m a straight A student. I play sports. I spend a lot of time with my family and friends. I plan on attending Brown University in the fall. I also smoke a few times a week. I couldn’t tell you a single negative effect it’s had on me. Sure, I know that smoke damages your lungs- but I’m only going to live once. I might as well live life to the fullest, so if I want to smoke weed, nothing is going to stop me. I’d like someone to try and tell me I’m a brain dead idiot who’s not going anywhere in life. As for why it’s illegal- don’t get me started. Current laws right now are insane, although some states are finally working towards decriminalization and hopefully legalization. Imagine all of the people like you and me, just living their lives, being good people, doing to harm to others, kids with bright futures, who could end up with a criminal record for feeling good once in a while. That’s really all it is. I guess they [the government] think they’re looking out for us, but what happened to freedom?

A: Personally, I have no problem with pot, but I’ve never believed sucking in the smoke from anything burning can ever be “healthy”.Even something as “benign” as incense has been shown to increase the chances of developing cancer.
