What Are the Penalties for Juvenile Marijuana Possession?

Question by vileswine: What are the penalties for juvenile marijuana possession?
So on my birthday, me and my friend each got an eighth of cannabis and we were pulled over and taken to the station. Now, I’m a juvenile and I was curious if anyone knew the potential consequences for a first time non-violent, juvenile, drug offender. I looked it up online and it said that its a “non-citable” offense in San Diego and I was curious if anyone had any more information about it. For more information, email me.

Why Do People Want Marijuana Legalized?

Question by Jacob S: Why do people want marijuana legalized?
I don’t understand this at all. Who could want this stuff legalized? Marijuana smokers are 6 times more likely to get lung cancer than tobacco smokers, and marijuana is highly addictive (look at the statistics, more teens are in treatment for marijuana addiction that all other drugs combined). According to studies done by Dr. Gabriel G. Nahas, marijuana can cause irreversible brain damage and destroys brain cells. Why would anyone want this horrible narcotic to be legal?
