Cannabis
 

Programme just been on the tele, with that geezer that used to play martin fowler off eastenders, about all things cannabis. in some states of america you can get a medical prescription, lol, for between 50 and 100 bucks, that allows you to have on you up to abot 3-4 oz and allows you to grow up to 6 plants for personel use, where as over here some bloke just had his door knocked in and lifted for growing 6 plants, discuss ;)

Very much like alcohol,some people cant tolerate it and become addicted or suffer nasty side effects.Is that a reason for criminalising it?Maybe,but to be logical and consistant we should criminalise alcohol as well.

I saw a programme where the guys was growing his own because he said that the dealers sprinkle very fine ground glass onto the buds when they are sticky to make them weigh more once the buds are dried thus increasing their profit. Off course inhaling powdered glass probably isn't that good for your lungs. I'm surprised the Government hasn't legalised and licenced it so that a spliff costs £28 of which £23 is tax.

Its going to be in the restricted category forever and a day as the govt. can't tax it.

I give whoever is doing the research on these shows their due, to get a sacked chief of the legislating body to discuss what he said on cannabis and ecstasy being less harmful the legal drugs.

Agree, if it was legal the government would make money, it would stop the smuggling, and they wouldn't have to spend money on trying to catch the bad men growing the stuff, students mainly ;)

Legalise the lot from smack to plant food then tax the **** out of it and give the money to the system and not the bankers.
It's like any other drug once abused it ruins lives, but at least you have a choice.
The only problem is everyone will be growing it to sell.
personally think alcohol is worse than weed.

Bollox to the student comment you aint gonna last long if you can't do your assignments it's booze students are bad for.
It's mainly single moms in council houses that grow it for gangster wannabie Joe Dakkis.

Anyone know anyone that got into a fight stoned?

No the anger comes when they run out! fact

Re: Cannabis
 

But would it make the government money? It would just have to be pumped back into the NHS and mental hospitals. It could increase crime rates (i.e driving offenses) and lead on to 'harder' drugs.
