What is the truth?
I asked my classmates about using marijuana today. Their answer was really interesting. The vast majority didn’t have experience of using marijuana, and they thought drinking alcohol everyday is better than using marijuana just sometimes for recreation. What is more, Even If marijuana was legalized, they would not want to try it. However, they said if the doctor prescribed marijuana as a medication, they would use it.
According to some article, using marijuana is better than drinking alcohol and smoking cigarette. I don’t know what is truth. However, even if something might harm us, as long as that is called medicine, people tend to use the poison apparently. What is more, some country can accept the poison but others can’t. It is really interesting isn’t it? Who ever knows the truth?

Where lies the truth?

A clear majority* had no experience of using marijuana and thought that drinking alcohol everyday is better than using marijuana just sometimes for recreation.

Hi kimchi smurai,
thank you for impressive comment. I'm still scared to use marijuana, and I might not use it. Anyway, I'm really interested in it because some counties are allowed to use marijuana but others are not. Rather marijuana is regarded as very bad thing in some countries like Japan. It seems there is some secrets in Japanese history. So, I'll look up what you told me later. Thank you very much!

Smoking weed is much, much safer than drinking alcohol. In the US thousands of people die each year from alcohol, but not from weed. I live in a place where weed is legal and everything is just fine. No big deal, really. You can go in a store an buy it. People in Japan and Korea do not have much knowledge about weed- people think it's so bad! lol - so much misinformation out there! If you research the history of marijuana in Japan you will understand why it was banned- it all has to do with the chemical industry and money (look up: the secret history of cannibis in Japan") -things were quite different before 1948. Now with weed, just like alcohol and everything else- if you abuse it and use it too much you can have problems. It can start to make you think slower and become a "stoner".
