I disagree, I think the majority of people are smart enough to not get involved in that stuff, it just seems more common because of how much media attention the issue gets.

at most, it's still less than one in four teens that use marijuana, according to the NIH, and they use more than any other age group.

It's legal in my state too, but I still don't see it that often.

very common, still wouldn't say the majority, but most kids have at least tried it by age 20. Nothing wrong with it.

I can say from personal experience that most people have at least tried it or use it occasionally

hmm i wouldn’t say that most teens are doing it, but of course there’s always a group doing drugs in every community. i’d agree and say that marijuana is the most popular because it isn’t very expensive, but in richer neighborhoods, people abuse more expensive drugs like percocet.

In my area it's very common. It's legal for anyone over 21, but like drinking, most teens do not care that they are under the age of the law. A lot of adults use marijuana too. In the city you can smell it quite often as people just smoke in the streets sometimes.
