What are the pros and cons of legalizing marijuana?

localTAlk_bevin1The pros would be stopping the growing of marijuana in national parks and to deminish the Mexican mafia trafficking of marijuana, and also it would be beneficial for medical marijuana. The negative may be that the people not paying taxes would now have to.

localTAlk_tamaraDThe pros of legalizing marijuana are that it cuts the police department to do things more important. The cons of legalizing marijuana are the fact that it becomes an avenue for critics. It becomes a place to attack.

localTAlk_jamesGThe pros would be that more people could be turned on to the benefits of marijuana. The cons would be that large companies would have their hands on it.
