Q&A: Survey about Marijuana?

I was looking through some old posts and found this question. I thought it was a good one so I wanted to post an answer here. The question comes from ‘A’: I’m doing a final project for my class and had an opinion poll that I wanted to ask anyone who would like to participate:1) Have you ever used marijuana?2) Have you ever committed a crime, misdemeanor or felony? 3) Do you believe marijuana can be used as a mental and/or physical healing agent?4) Do you continue to use marijuana? If so, how long have you used it?

If you don’t feel comfortable asking one or more of the questions, then just leave them blank or put N/A and if you haven’t used marijuana, just put N/A for #4 as well, thanks!
