Legalization Of Marijuana

Don’t you feel as if people should have the basic right to make individual choices for themselves as long as these actions are not harming anyone else?

Did you know that if the legalization of marijuana in the United States became a reality, the US government would save $10-15 billion anually?

Have you ever realized that marijuana, just like tabacco and alcohol, is not an abusive and addictive drug in itself but it is the user that chooses to use it for that purpose? The continued denial of personality dysfunctions and the prohibition of marijuana only fuels this abusive behaviour in people. Regulation of marijuana, educational teachings and therapy are the keys to eradicating drug abuse.

Has anybody told you that the US prison population is 8 times as high as majority of Western countries? According to the Bureau Of Investigations, in 2007 there were an astonishing 872,721 arrests by police in the US for marijuana related violations.

Are you surprised to find out that if marijuana is legalized, drug dealers would lose most or all of their business? Some of the biggest opponent’s of legalizing drugs are the drug dealers themselves. Legalization would open competition and reduce the price of marijuana considerably… there would be no need for dealers.

The United States has been at war since 1971… this is a war that has never been won and never looks like it will be won while it is still faught. This war is the ‘war on drugs’.

40 years have passed since this war was declared and what has it produced?

The US have spent $1 trillion and have cost thousands of lives. Drug use is more rampant and violence is escualting and becoming more barbaric than ever.

In 1970, hippies were smoking marijuana and dropping acid. US soldiers were arriving home from Vietnam addicted to heroin. An embattled US president, Richard Nixon, sprung into a war he thought he could win.

“Public enemy No. 1 in the United States is drug abuse”, he proclaimed. “In order to fight and defeat this enemy, it is necessary to wage a new, all-out offensive.”

Nixon’s first drug-fighting budget was $100 million. Today it’s $15.1 billion.

Over the last 40 years the US government has spent $33 billion in marketing the “Just Say No”-style messages to America’s youth and other prevention programs. Illegal drug use rates are the same as they were back in 1970 with high school students. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention say drug overdoses have risen since the 1970s to more than 20,000 in 2009.

The US has also spent $121 billion to arrest over 37 million nonviolent drug offenders, about 10 million of them just for the possession of marijuana. Even more alarming is that studies show jail time tend to increase drug use.

The Justice Department estimates the consequences of drug abuse costs the US $215 billion dollars a year due to an overburdened justice system, an over-used health care system, loss of productivity, and environment destruction.

The definition of ‘insanity’ is doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result.

It is time for change.

The common illusions and misconceptions of marijuana are widespread in the general population.

Just like any substance, we agree that marijuana can be abused. With frequent and excessive use of marijuana comes the reality of lethargy. This type of use of marijuana does not cause long-term effects for the smoker at all though. There are no negative implications for the user’s immune system, damage of the brain or nervous system. Alcohol, on the other hand, does cause brain cells to die and is a main ingredient in alot of social violence that is going on in today’s world… and it’s only getting worse.

Is marijuana an abusive drug in itself? No!

One of the biggest arguments against the legalization of marijuana is that it is an addictive substance and will spoil everybody who smokes it.

Amazing research into the nature of addicition by experts such as Gabor Mate, M.D., strongly indicates that there is no such thing as addictive substances. The reality of it is that addicition is searching for something outside of oneself to fill an insatiable yearning for happiness and fulfillment. All addiction is a self-medicating behavior… medicating against deep fear and anxieties.

The addictive substance, whether it is drugs, sex, tv, internet, food, etc. is not the source of addiction… the source of addiction lies within the individuals psyche. Dr Mate has discovered that when it comes to brain chemistry everyone is looking to produce endorphins.

Now, you might have heard of endorphins…

Endorphins are the brains feel-good, pleasure-based, pain-relief chemicals. They also are the ‘love’ chemical which enable us to connect to one another and the world around us.

When someone is an addict, the part of the brain circuitry that produces endorphin’s doesn’t work very efficiently. The part of the brain that is responsible for motivation and reward, which involves the chemical ‘dopamine’, also doesn’t function that well either. When people take a stimulant drug or act out in a stimulating behaviour the brain releases dopamine and endorphins.

Why arn’t these brain circuits not well developed in some people? Dr Mate believes that it comes from childhood abuse… whether intended or not intended. What this means is that a mother who is stressed regularly during pregnancy or in the first 5 years of a childs life directly impacts the brain chemistry of that child… as does the parent/s being emotionally unavailable, physically abondoning the child, etc.

Unlike other species, the human baby is always born prematurely. A human baby is 100% dependent on caretakers for a number of years for it’s survival. The brain is still developing tremendously during this period. Thousands of neural connections are being made every second!

When the parts of the brain that are responsible for illiciting feelings of love and connection are not activated because of neglectful parenting/upbringing then the brain doesn’t develop strong wiring for this brain activity. All of this happens before the person addicted to weed for example has a choice in the matter.

So when a healthy upbringing is not given to the baby it’s brain development leaves it open and susceptible for becoming addicted to outside forces later on in life. When someone does not feel the source of love coming from the inside (a healthy self-esteem) they will automatically gravitate towards finding this source of love from the outside… and drugs give off these wanted emotions very easily and quickly.

When Dr.Mate spoke to one of the hard-core addicts he regularly treats and asked her what did it feel like the first time you injected heroin she replied, ‘It was like a warm soft hug’.

So stop now and take a moment to realize this… The the war on drugs, largely motivated by the mis-conception of the source of drug-abuse,  is actually a war waged against people who were abused from early on in their life… long before they touched any drug.

People who support this war are actually punishing the people who have been abused.
