This is an election year, and tho' all three major parties have policies on what to do with weed, it doesn't seem to be causing too much of a stir. Voters tend to be more focused on the economy, health care, education and the poor performance of the Toronto Maple Leafs. Also the majority of Canadians (that would be 3% ... you can do the arithmetic:D) wouldn't have a shiite hemorrhage if it were decriminalized. And I for one would like to see this non-issue drift away in a cloud of aromatic smoke. |

I don't think any amount of debating is going to change your firm view on this topic M,as usual,you'll make a calculated and informed judgement.....and that's fine I respect your opinion. However,What I've a problem with is usual clowns proclaiming to know everything on the subject when it's obvious they haven't a clue and this is reflected in their opinions being made up of bile and bigotry. Re the tv program I don't need to watch it to know that: 1. The presenter "Mr snow" has form with taking mind altering drugs. Jon Snow acid trip experience: Channel 4 presenter reveals he once drove down the motorway high on LSD from spiked strawberry flan - Mirror Online Which could contribute to any findings. 2.if your smoking cannabis for the first time you don't go straight onto vaporising "skunk" and assume you'll be fine to jump under a mri scanner etc without suffering a little anxiety....which I assume they'll try and portray as psychosis caused purely by cannabis use .... in short the program will be aimed at the feeble minded. Will Ch4 (in the name of science and accurate research) be doing the same experiment, with more experienced cannabis users to achieve a broader, more representative set of results?Hmmmm The list of damaging substances in the world is endless M,you could probably find a survey to fit any argument be it brain tumours,helping cancer and anything in between. How would you say a responsible user of cannabis in uk,who uses cannabis to self medicate, should acquire it? Carry on buying it from dodgy Dave on a rough housing estate? Perhaps,growing their own at the risk of becoming a criminal themselves? Policing it doesn't work so why not let folk get it from a outlet where you choose the potency and get advice if needed (with a few buffers in place) this has got to be better than funding the criminal underworld? The legal Cannabis market could be worth a fortune....... win,win as they say:- Legal cannabis market 'would be worth £1.25bn a year to government' | Society | The Guardian And for info on the licensing and regulation this is a interesting document: http://issuu.com/beckleypark/docs/bf...210503/7093696 Sorry, if this topic is boring you...I'm interested in hearing your thoughts (without searching the forum). |

Re: Cannabis
This isn't particularly about weed; but it probably ain't worth a thread of its own ... and it is about drugs, the kinds that you get in drug stores.
It's been so cold here that there is little to do except stay inside (except when shoveling), drink, toke, screw, and watch TV. Come to think of it, apart from the TV thing, that isn't all that bad.:D But I've been watching so much TV that I've started to really take notice of the ads, particularly the ones for drugs. You probably get the same ones: in a thirty second ad you get 5 seconds of all the marvelous things the product does for you ... and 25 seconds of side effects: My fav is "May cause death.":alright: It makes weed seem not all that bad. And if you decide it's not for you, you can stop taking it without checking with your doctor. As an aside, I remember my gran going to the herbalist for cold cures and stuff like that. And the only side effect was that they tasted like shiite.:D |

On this side of the pond Dr's are more than willing to give us a prescription for a drug that is (possibly) addictive and even if it doesn't kill us it can have a list of adverse side effects.But yet we are unable to choose a non-toxic alternative like cannabis because of propaganda fuelled by the MSM etc :confused: Some folk (like you and I) have experienced the reality of cannabis over a decade or two and because of that experience we are able to see straight through the propaganda that some are so easily duped by. |

I also don't buy into the argument that the fact that weed "is illegal" ends any debate on the subject. Many things that were illegal when I was young are no longer so: homosexuality comes to mind, as do suicide, abortion, impersonating a Chelsea Pensioner ... oops, sorry about the last one; I'm not that old.:D Some things seem "naturally" illegal: murder, robbery, rape (altho' in some countries it's the victim who is punished), arson, and other usual suspects; but other things are up for debate ... or, in Canada, end up challenged in the Supreme Court. The illegality of certain drugs is a question of politics: "Will we get elected if we support decriminalization?" Ontario has some of the most restrictive laws concerning the purchase of alcohol, not because we drink less than folks in Quebec, but because no Ontario political party has the balls to lighten up on the rules. It's politics, a euphemism for BS. |
