I am simply curious as to what the more popular reasons are for people who are against the use of cannabis.
So if you are against it, what is your reason?

I'm not. While it definitely has very bad side effects and causes permanent damage, it's really not much worse than smoking cigarettes in that aspect. If that's a sacrifice you are willing to make, then who is anybody to stop you? Driving while high is just as bad as driving while drunk, and alcohol is legal, so it's really the responsibility of the user to avoid that situation. The revenue and stimulation of the economy is a much better alternative to arresting pot smokers for non-violent drug violations. I think pot is very mild for an illegal drug, and in some aspects, it's not worse than substances that are already legal. I live in Colorado, so it doesn't really matter to me anyways :P
