This section will be organized in a detailed manner to elaborate on the abuse, advantage, and effects of marijuana on people. Marijuana has been a known used drug throughout society and many people are aware of this drug. However, marijuana has never been the type of drug to harm or cause death to any human being, marijuana is one of the most popular harmless drugs today, it is actually being used for a medical reason now in several states across the United States. On the other hand, marijuana is still illegal in more than half of the United States so the abuse has caused small altercations.
Marijuana is the most commonly used drug in the world today, it is mostly used by young people because of the level of stress, peer pressure and the economic changes of the world today. Marijuana mainly affect you when either you have heart problems, your pregnant or a first time user that do not know what to expect. Today's society middle school and high school are when marijuana is most commonly used because of freedom, growing up experiencing different things, and the adventure of hanging with older adults and friends who are adapted several years before you even try it. Marijuana can affect all people in different ways, however, no one has ever died due to marijuana use.

As mentioned above in the opportunity statement, this study is to gain information on the effects of marijuana on people.

Hypotheses (Quantitative)/Propositions (Qualitative)
This topic in discussion can go many ways when it comes to a hypothesis. The reason it has so many outcomes is because of the amount of people in the study. On the other hand, marijuana use can cause effects to individuals that can cause short-term memory loss. However, this research will prove or disapprove that marijuana is not a harmful drug, but it does cause small side effects depending on the individual.
Theoretical Perspectives/Conceptual Framework
Throughout the paper, a number of effects will be presented throughout the study to show accuracy within the people who use marijuana. Marijuana may be illegal in most states but think about the states that have it legally and how the numbers can rise within different communities. Therefore, this paper will also demonstrate different effects from people, in general, to see how harmful marijuana usage is or even if it is harmful at all. Most drugs are illegal due to the harmful side effects or long-term addiction. On the other hand, marijuana is not harmful due to the fact that no one has died from using this plant based product. This paper is to show the different effects of people who use marijuana and to answer questions to the readers who find interest in marijuana.
Most people assume that marijuana is a very powerful and mind controlling drug but it is not. Marijuana is not one of the least leading causes of death in the world today. Most think marijuana causes brain damage and loss of memory, but it does not actually kill brain cells just swipe memory of certain things going on at the moment.
The value of this research is to demonstrate the different effects on people who use the drug marijuana. Also to provide factual information to determine whether not marijuana use is harmful. Most believe marijuana is a useful drug, therefore, finding information on that topic is significant for this study as well. This study is directed to readers who find interest in the drug marijuana and people who would like to gain knowledge about the effects of this drug.
This search is directed at people in general who use drug marijuana. The reason the research is so broad is that marijuana is illegal within many states. Therefore picking a place or gender would make the study less accurate or inaccurate. The effects of marijuana on people is far more interesting than picking one gender or category. Additionally, being able to compare and contrast women and men, children and adolescents, and pregnant and nonpregnant women is also the objective of the research.
The limitations of this topic are that marijuana usage is real and variety from children to adults. Marijuana is a drug and even though many people find interest in this drug, it is still illegal. On the other hand, marijuana can cause certain effects and that can lead to harmful endings, however, marijuana has never killed any individual. A person can consume as much marijuana as possible and still not overdose on this drug, which makes it more interesting to use.
