Imagine if possessing/consuming raw cookie dough was illegal. Some would uphold the law and some would break the law. Some people would sit their teens down and tell them the dangers of raw cookie dough, saying how it is a gateway to obesity. They would say that it would lead them to a life of calorie-abuse and would drive them to ingesting more and more dangerous foods like raw brownie dough. Others would sit their children down and tell them about how they have proudly consumed raw cookie dough their entire lives. The government will warn that consuming copious amounts of cookie dough will give you salmonella. While, secretly, they are only spreading this propaganda because it will put the pre-made cookie industry out of business. It will not harm you in any way. It can be consumed responsibly. It can help cope with stress and release endorphins into your body. Stressed out? Relax and have some cookie dough. Some will claim that they neeeeed dough in their life, & doctors will be paid by companies like Tollhouse to publicly speak out about the risky problems concerning the legalization of cookie dough, like addiction amongst other issues. Cops will bust into American citizens houses and arrest them on the grounds of finding spoons with cookie residue on them. If they catch you with a gallon of cookie dough ice cream than you will most likely spend at least 5 years in prison, pay thousands of dollars in fines, and be given at least 2 years probation. Youll be labeled a dough abuser and your mugshots will be all over the internet, furthermore driving your mother or father into a depression concerning how they failed as parents. People will speak out against cookie dough activists and they will say that it doesnt matter if you dont think it hurts anyone; Its your own dumb fault for breaking the law, theyll squeal. It doesnt matter if its not hurting anyone, it doesnt matter that it may have stress reducing qualities, it wont matter that it makes people happy. Its the law. How silly does that sound? Right???? Replace all the references to cookie dough with the word marijuana. Replace the references to premade cookie companies to pharmaceutical painkiller companies. Replace the spoons with pipes, and so on and so forth. The only difference in this ridiculous hypothetical law and the ridiculous non-hypothetical law is that marijuana has exponential possibilities in medicine. The buds and the oils from marijuana have never killed anyone. In fact, they attack/eradicate cancerous cells in the human body, and also treat seizures, depression, glaucoma, stress, PTSD and more even better than any human medicine on the market today. The funniest part of this entire allegory is that it would take longer to overdose on marijuana than it would on cookie dough. Youd have to consume 1500 pounds of marijuana in fifteen minutes to cause you to be the first person in history to overdose on marijuana.
