Tuesday September 10

We talked about Dennis Rodman going to North Korea and making comments about President Obama and Hillary Clinton. Then we listened to the presentation on Legalizing Marijuana.

Positive Affects- Relaxation, positive mood, Munchies, Increased enjoyment of music and art, forgetting cares and worries, better imagination, more creativity, increased feeling of excitment.

Negative affects- forgetfullness oversleeping, not getting things done, concentration difficulties, neglecting work duties, loss of balance or dizziness, problems performing tasks.

Nobody has ever overdosed on marijuana, it would take 120,000 hits to overdose which would be 800 joints.

In 2009 858,408 marijuana violations, and 50 percent were in the US 40 percent of high school kids say they have tried marijuana. 13 states allow medical marijuana use, in 1996 California was the first state to legalize marijuana. 

Marijuana has been illegal since 1906, it is illegal to use marijuana in parks or on sidewalks, and you must be 21 for it to be legal.

I dont think marijuana should be legal for anything other than medical use, there are enough problems with alcohol we dont need another drug to add to the problems.
