The second reason it should be legalized is to limit the amount of people that get put in jails for marijuana, when there are the worst people out there that need to be put in jail.

A synthetic capsule is available by prescription, but it is not as effective as smoked marijuana for many patients. Pure THC may also produce more unpleasant psychoactive side effects than smoked marijuana. Many people use marijuana as a medicine today, despite its illegality. In doing so, they risk arrest and imprisonment. With all of these great things that can be done with marijuana, why keep it away from those who could use it?

Poachers are people who kill animals illegally by hunting without a proper permit, or trespassing on someone’s property.

That is why it is important we turn poachers in.
