Your first amendment right to free speech was violated. How dare they say it is inappropriate!! Settling for a C+ is not good either. I hate Cs. I would have fought this all the way up to the Supreme Court if I could just to make a point.

The teachers could have learned something from that speech. I did something about drug legalization in college and they didn't have a problem with it.

I think that if you are openly promoting the USE of weed, they could raise an honest rejection and get away with it easily. But according to what you wrote, you were merely talking about its decriminalization...not advocation. There is a difference. I am against alcohol prohibition, but I hate alcohol and don't drink. So you can have a huge dislike of the actual substance, but support the regulation and supply of it because the negative effects of prohibition, as history has shown us, have been clearly shown.

They can also have sex education in schools, sports, and music classes, but we are not allowed to talk about a natural plant that grows freely and has been used for thousands of years? Thats the same thing as saying the sun gives cancer and so we should hate and fear it and make it illegal to talk about it. Their logic would be "the sun is bad because it gives you cancer. It gives you cancer because it is bad...period".

One thing that evil fears most is an open mind
