Marijuana...Legal or Illegal

Marijuana is one of the most used illegal drugs all around the world. There are many types of marijuana and different THC content in each type. This illegal  drug is a plant grown in many places. The pott farmers usually have their gardens everywhere, from forests to even their own homes. Owning a garden or marijuana in your home will get you into prission for a long time.
In some parts of the world, marijuana is legal, but always with some restrictions. For example, you can have a small personal ammount of marijuana and it would be ok, but if you have a large ammount (enough to be considered for dealing), you will be in trouble. In Amsterdam, marijuana is legal but only inside coffee shops. This is a good thing because people in there are all doing the same thing and under control of the shop owners.
Marijuana has always been known as a bad drug. People are affraid of it because it is illegal, but what most people do not know is that it is less dangerous than the cigarette that is a legal drug. More people die from smoking cigarettes than from smoking pott.
Marijuana may dammage yoour brain functions, but it also, it can be used for medicinal reasons. Marijuana, for example, can be used to re-gain hunger, and craving for food for cancer patients going through chimiotherapy. It creates hunger because it stimulates our body so we feel hungry. Also, it is used to relax muscles for disseases that cause muscle pain.
This is what has brought up a new controversy inthe united states. People are now fighting to make mariijuana legal under prescriptions so peple can live longer. The government in some places already gives these patients a monthly ammount of marijuana as their medicine.
I think it should be legalized because you could save and make longer many human lives. This might bring many problems because of drug addicts that would get it however they can, but it would solve a lot more problems. Some of these problems would be: cure people, give longer lives, decrease in marijuana trafycking, government makes more money through taxes on this drug, violence would decrease. These are all great things because it might bring a more peacefull society. To make this happen in order, they must plan a very strict prescription plan so not anyone can have acccess to the drug.
In conclusion i think that marijuana should indeed be legalized for medicinal reasons.
