This is a regular assignment – however to allow you to see each other’s

This is a regular assignment – however to allow you to see each other’s responses, I am putting it under a discussion. In case you’ll be curious what other students think. If you choose to, you can reply to each other but it is not required. 
As you are probably aware, NJ has legalized recreational marijuana. Although it is still being worked out where it can be bought and what towns will allow it, it is now legal to possess and smoke. Do you personally believe this is a good or a bad thing for society? There is absolutely no right or wrong answer to this. Everyone will get full credit for answering as long as you provide your answer and then a sentence or two why you believe what you believe. 
Lastly, do you think that other drugs should also be decriminalized?
