At least what age should one be to consume cannabis?

[GrInCh42o]

im 19 and been smoking for like 6-7 years and i origanally voted 17 but 18 would sound better to the ''unsmoking community" if cannabis was on the verge of being legalized.

Ya' know, I'm gonna continue this conversation on my own and say...

What if, one day, we find out that it makes our learning process faster?

I can't imagine anyone refuting that point, for the lack of evidence points just as much in that direction as it does the other way.

well, i've been going into maths all year stoned, never listened to a word that was said. took a test (stoned) and aced it no problems...

To be a right it must be in the "Best Interest of Society" and that right will be enforced by the government. Just like laws that require a person be a certain age before they can vote, purchase a handgun, enter a strip club, be served alcohol and operate a motor vehicle.
The reason is simple, if you have a right .. in exercising your right you cannot step on another's rights. Imagine if there were no restrictions....
a seven - year = old could drive a car, buy a handgun, and vote...later he could walk into a strip club and get served. If you happen to be in that strip club at that time, you may be in danger and there is nothing no one can do because there is no law prohibiting this. Yes, we need to accept restrictions if we want it to be a right within society and keep society safe from harm.

Remember: " if we expect to make a change within the system, it is from within the system that a long lasting change will occur."
If we want to legalize weed we have to legalize it to the degree the government places logical restrictions on its use.
Also note, they do not have to prove it is harmful, it is the exact opposite in fact. FDA don't just release drugs until they are proven harmful to society, it is the opposite they don't release a drug until it is proven to be safe. If you want to legalize weed you need a very large group to be part of the long term study, that was suggested. But as in all scientific studies, you must be willing to accept both possible outcomes, and live with that result too.

whatever time one is mature enough to handle the herb... could be 13 years old, could be 31 years old.

It's all about keeping herb in moderation, and not letting it take over your life.

i agree 1000%

I also don't like seeing these 10-11 year olds tokin up because they are so young and most likely doing it for all the wrong reason, and most of the time they honestly can't handle themselves while high

Ya really if pot was legal and you could do it at ages 12 or 13 less kids would be huffing hair sparys and choking each other. Hell to think of it NO ONE would be doing that stupid shit if it was legal.

[t3h stonerer]

I'm 16, but I put 18 because most kids aren't mature enough at my age. I hate teenagers. Most people still aren't mature enough at 18 though. I hate people.

[just me]

After being a heavy smoker for 6 years and being a non smoker now and heavy cigarette smoker before, now above age 21 i'd say 18-21 to be a sensible age for smoking it, if ever.
Life had lost joy at 18 so I think consider 18 to be a responsible age.
