Why not?

1. It's not addictive

2. It's not a gateway drug (there is no concrete evidence, only correlations which can easily explained with other arguments)

3. It's safer than cigarettes (It doesn't cause cancer, studies show that people who have smoked several joints a day for years have no statistically significantly higher risk of getting cancer)

4. It's safer than alcohol (You can't get killed from it, no matter how much you smoke, and if you're really high, you're less likely to do something stupid than if you're really drunk)
