logos ethos pathos

Drugs may give a bad impression to those who come across the word, however, it is not all that bad, and I think soft drugs like marijuana should be legalised.

Soft drugs, as most of us know, are harmful. But they might be useful in some ways. For example in pain killers, medical marijuana is sometimes used to relieve pain. The marijuana that is available on the black market is somewhat the same, just that it hasn't been processed and legalised yet. If drugs can be used for medical use (sometimes patients get addicted while receiving treatment and request doctors to prescribe them with marijuna to "relieve pain"), why not legalise it as well?

Next, soft drugs can be closely related to gambling as well. Both cause addiction, and both started out as something illegal. However, gambling is now legalised and the oppurtunity given to the privilledged who can afford to go casinoes. Therefore, soft drugs can also be legalised in the same way. Giving only the privilledged oppurtunity to smoke soft drugs.

Sometimes the solutions to curbing illegal sale to soft drugs is staring right at our faces, just that most people are too afraid to carry them out...
