I've always felt like most legalization advocates do more harm than good, they overstate the medicinal benefits and act like weed is some kind of miracle medicine that cures everything under the sun, that's just not true. They need to be honest, it has a lot of medicinal benefits, but it doesn't really cure anything, it just makes a lot of things suck less. And that's fine, OTC painkillers like Advil don't cure anything either, but making your headache or joint pain suck less is definitely a valuable medicinal application. They also downplay the dangers and act like it's perfectly safe and healthy, weed is definitely not very harmful as far as drugs go, but it's not completely harmless, it's definitely not good for young, developing people. For adults it's mostly harmless. But all the arguments I hear from the pro weed crowd just come across as a bunch of potheads that just want to smoke weed because they like it, because that's what they are. That's not speaking the language of people who are against it, they're not changing any minds. They need to sit down, shut up, and let smarter people make the argument for them.
