Survey Says Majority of Americans in Favor of Legalizing Marijuana

weedPut this in your pipe and smoke it. The majority of Americans are in favor of legalizing marijuana for the first time since the Pew Research Center began asking the question 40 years ago.

According to the national survey, which was conducted from March 13th through 17th, 52 percent of Americans said pot should be legal. Another 45 percent said it should be illegal.

This latest poll comes after some states have already legalized weed. In 2012, voters in Colorado and Washington voted to make pot legal for recreational use for adults 21 and over. However, marijuana still remains illegal under federal law.
