Its more like how smoking increase your risk cancer even on one cigarette a month and already done case studies already with about 3 years observation time with regular mris. Basically my mother is psychological research adviser to the my county (I live in the uk so health service and university all inter linked to a point) basically she advises a team doing research on this.jboking said:

ive never found pot to be addicting. But stoners who spend every day smokin weed and doing nothing else at all give it a bad reputation because everyone assumes its the pot that makes you not do anything. When in fact it is because they are lazy fucks. Weed just makes them feel good about being lazy fucks.
I feel it should be legalized, there are far worse legal drugs out there. Just to name a few off the top of my head... Hydrocodine, Alcohol, Nicotine, Vicoden, Xanex.

actually statistically its better for you than tobacco and alcohol...Mewick_Alex said:
and legalisation would mean the govornment could make money off it and gang revenue would decrease as a huge profit for gangs (in the UK) is the dealing of weed
I have a feeling here most people have probably never even seen crack nevermind taking it, violence really? I have friends both here and in sweeden who you would classify as potheads and I mean real potheads they could not possibly be more fucking mellow if they tried, and its not like weed is expensive or addictive ot the level crack is unless your earning nothing atall I doubt any old woman is going to get mugged/killed for a fivers worth of weed.
Good for the economy either way people needed to grow it, people needed to regulate it, transport it, make sure it meets saftey standards and ofcourse sell it.

Medical - Legalize it.
Free Use - The only example is the Dutch so I guess if other countries want to leaglize it fully, they'll have to follow they're example, or try very hard to make a better one. Personally, I wouldn't mind as long as it was kept in buildings where you can buy and use it, or in your house.

Idiots? Now thats a little harsh surely. Trip out? Have you ever even looked at the stuff? Let alone smoked any? I'm not going to lie to you, I've smoked the stuff for almost 10 years now and not ONCE have I tripped out....or over for that matter. If you want to argue about something, then learn a little beforehand please, (And disregard all of what the news/schools/authorities tells you, because all of it is fabricated.) Yes, that usually means first hand experience, but what would I know, I'm just a lowly "idiot stoner" according to some of you. I must have missed the meeting where you were all proclaimed "Gods of all living things" and could pass judgement just like that.pete240 said:
"Drugs" are chemically altered, man-made...cannabis/marijuana/ganja/weed/dope/blow/mary j, whatever you want to call it, is a plant, end of arguement. I dont drink alcohol, nor smoke tobacco, so I personally feel we're trading "vices". But hey, if you're that arrogant to enjoy yourself the way you want, but wont let anyone else enjoy themselves how they want, then you are a hypocrite.
I'll keep smoking regardless of class, laws or whatever, the world is in a huge mess right now and you want to stop people smoking cannabis? Surely there are more pressing matters at the moment.
It will never happen in my eyes, just because most of the world thinks that weed causes you to go batshit crazy. When people actually learn about it, and realise that their Governments have been filling them full of lies, just so you would continue to support their Fascist ideals, then it may happen.
I want to dispel a certain myth about the Netherlands and pot.
It is NOT legal in the Netherlands it is "gedoogd" which means that it is just barely allowed and strictly controlled, you can smoke it in your own home and in designated areas i.e. coffee shop, etc. you are allowed to grow it for personal use put you can only have 5 plants. You cannot sell the stuff personally, you can only buy it in coffee shops or special shops.
Basically the "Pulp Fiction" explanation.
The reason for this as far as I can understand it is purely the Dutch mentality of "as long as we have the bigger problems let the smaller ones slide".
My personal experience with pot is only from high school after which I quit because it was not interesting anymore. After that all my knowledge of the subject is second and third-hand, but what I can say is that most people who continue using after school(high school, college) usually turn into low-income losers.

well... if you look at a country like holland which weed is legal i cant remeber the numbers but i know more people are still killed from alchohol and tobacco there than weed and not ALL off them are stoners
main reason for that is a much smaller number of weed smokers than regular smokers and people who get cancer or other such ailments from pot are just choked up as smokers. As for alcohol well in the Netherlands you can start drinking at 16 with beer and at 18 you can get real booze including stuff that until 30 years ago was still being made in bathtubs and made drinkers go blind.Ctrl-Alt-Elite said:
Limits on what chemicals can be used to grow it and keep the aphids off, organic available at a premium, regular testing for contaminants, leaf and bud content and percentage THC by mass shown on the packet, that kind of thing? How about mixing it with spearmint and packing it into teabags? Twinings and Taylors of Harrogate would jump in for the race to get that range on the market, for sure!see_you_at_the_GALLOWS said:
I would never touch the stuff but if we could legally sell and tax it we could raise a lot of money.
I think it should be legalized. It is nowhere near as bad as cigarettes, it enhances tastes, sounds, sights, and think about all the money the gov. could save/make on taxing it. Instead of the millions of $$$ they spend on keeping it illegal, they might actually reduce our debt by a good chunk.
