Marijuana Use
People believe that illegal drugs cause severe health problems
and induce criminal behavior, whereas legal drugs do not pose serious problems to the user
and to society. But that is not always true. Many legal popular drugs, such as alcohol, if
they are taken in toxic doses, can cause serious health problems, even death. On the other
hand, certain illegal drugs – marijuana in particular– do not cause serious problems
and have significant therapeutic benefits. They pose little or no threat to society. Yet,
marijuana use still remains illegal. Marijuana is less harmful than such legal drugs as tobacco
and alcohol, and it has some important medicinal benefits. ______ ___________________.
