Jacob Velasquez Ms. Vela-Sanchez Theme Composition April 19, 2013 Article Of the Week Legalizing of Marijuana Raises Health Concerns Source: RONI CARYN RABIN New York Times 1.7.13 Synthesis: Legalizing of marijuana raises health concerns through the general public. However, the people who do not know the rise and the potency of marijuana, as well as, how it damages one’s body perceptually, which at the end will have drastic consequences. For instance, as Roni continues she mentions that teenagers who are addicted to the drug are the ones who are more at risk to have damage done to them in the frontal cortex. First, as they, the adolescences, use marijuana they essentially are “hooked” on the drug, without proper treatment they will stay on the cannabis as an addict. Moreover, when it comes to their mentality rate of the brain the function of it decreases tremendously on being able to comprehend the world around them than compared to any adult that uses the drug. Furthermore, as Roni continues on with the harm marijuana does to adolescences she points out that if legalization of the drug took place then the teenagers would have an easier way to get access to the potent cannabis. Likewise, for the people don’t see marijuana as a threat-Roni assures them that introducing it to underage teenagers would be an immoral notion and it would be better for everyone to inform adolescences when they become adults. Although people hardly care for the legalization of marijuana they are not aware of the harm it does to the teenagers as well as the adults who consume the potent drug will have a drastic change intellectually.
