Why Should Marijuana Be Legalized?

Question by []: Why should marijuana be legalized?
Why should an extremely addictive drug that causes lung cancer and brain damage be legalized? I can’t see any non-users supporting legalization so it’s just the stoners who want it legal so they can get away with destroying their health and polluting society. I hate pot smokers and I don’t think they do anything for society, so they might as well be rounded up and killed.
