Re: police raid
jaysay.... i think what mr d is trying to say is that saying that if you smoke cannabis you will start taking hard drugs is like saying that all smokers will start smoking cannabis

Blimey, the argument from some of the pro-canabis brigade seems quite aggressive.
:D |
Re: police raid
with mrd on this, as one who smoked cannabis from mid 60s to 73 ish pretty regular, i never found the need to graduate to "Hard Drugs" heavy abuse of any substance leads to complications, any fool, except a government fool is aware of that i imagine.i reckon anyone who has used it, (not to extremes) would say there is more pluses than minuses to it.:)

Re: police raid
Far more people are addicted to painkillers than cannabis, and their bodies are more damaged by those painkillers
The silent addiction to everyday painkillers | Mail Online That very strong painkiller that you say you take, Jaysay, will be an 'opium derivative' - which translates to 'having the chemical constituents of opium' but more costly because it is manufactured and sold to the Nhs at an exhorbitant cost by pharmacutical companies. If you had to pay for those painkillers you may well find that it would work out cheaper to grow poppies :D |
Re: police raid
Of course not every user of canabis is going to go on to harder drugs, just as all those who drink alcohol don't all become alcoholics.
What I do know is that every smack head I've known started off on the wacky-backy. Fact. Personally I think it should be legalised, because like prostitution, legal or illegal, it isn't going to go away, and with a legal status it's safety could be controlled to some extent...plus the government could raise lots of taxes from all those dope users.:D |

I would go for decramanilisation (SP). In my view rules like this would be better. You can possess a certain amount on your person in Public. You can possess a larger amount kept on your premises. You can cultivate a certain number of plants for Personall use only. You cannot smoke it in a public area All the smack heads I know also started of on the drink - Fact. |
Re: police raid
Just to play devil's advocate
All the smack heads I know started on baby milk There has always been the lame argument that once a person tries cannabis that they will automatically move on to stronger drugs. Many users of the stronger drugs, who I have known personally, did start on cannabis and then moved on to the stronger stuff but they would have gone in that direction anyway. It wasn't the cannabis that turned them into cocaine addicts but their personalities which drove them to find something that was missing from their lives. I am not saying that cannabis is 100% safe because any 'poison' you inflict on your body has to have some effect but there is more danger from the tobacco in a joint than there is from the cannabis. The obvious answer is to leave both well alone but if that doesn't get you, the artificial additives and preservatives in the food we eat probably will. They won't ban them because they are for our own good. I think there is a greater danger to modern drinkers who quaff these alcopop type drinks and energetically dance in a crowded night club. Dehydration with a high concentration of alcohol in your system is a great problem and can lead to some serious organ damage. |
