The legalization of marijuana for recreational use is a topic than many people have an opinion on, whether they are for or against it. College campues’ in America are a place full of opinions, so I asked a few anonymous Taft College students what they thought.<\/p>\n

The first student I asked said that they do smoke marijuana occasionally, but that they would not vote to legalize it because they think that it would\u00a0<\/span>cause a lot of people to act\u00a0irresponsible. Another student that I asked said that they think that it would bring in millions of tax dollars, the way the Colorado and Oregon have had their marijuana tax’s raise hundreds of millions of dollars. I don’t think his speech was improvised, but he made some good points. A lot of students that I asked were right on the fence, but most said that even though they do not smoke, they think it should be legalized.<\/span><\/p>\n
