I agree!

LukeB 16-02-2018 12:31 PM

Legalised

Denver 16-02-2018 12:33 PM

It would be no fun if it was legal

smudgie 16-02-2018 12:33 PM

Medicinal only.


But nobody should go to prison, or even to court for it.

-Sue- 16-02-2018 12:35 PM

Used for medicinal purposes but criminalised for rec. uses was my option (but noone should be imprisoned for using it..)

But not legalised so you can buy it at corner shop...

Legalised, alcohol has a worse effect on people than cannabis does

It does, but something that I think is worth remembering, is that there are more people with alcohol and nicotine addictions than ALL other drugs combined, and by a huge margin. And alcohol and nicotine are the only widely used legal recreational drugs. While cannabis is a pretty SAFE drug (doesn't make people aggressive and there are basically zero recorded cases of death from cannabis overdose) that doesn't mean it's totally fine. I mean the same can be said for nicotine. There are also massive issues with people driving while high... These days it seems to be even more common than drink driving (I constantly smell weed on people at work and then see them leave and get into a car, it's crazy).

So overall, I don't question the safety of the drug itself but I do question whether legalisation would lead to a massive upswing in those using, and those becoming addicted, is its seen as normalised like alcohol and tobacco (cannabis not being addictive is a completely false claim).


But it does have some incredible medicinal properties in all sorts of areas. So I guess I come down on the side of legalisation, but on prescription only. And in terms of recreational use, no arrests / charges for people using (which seems to be the unofficial status quo anyway tbf) and, for illegal dealers, probably no prison sentences etc. but I do think there should be charges and a hefty fine (ideally funnelled into addiction services).

I don't feel strongly on the issue, but went for legalised. I can be convinced otherwise, I've not looked too far into it.

Same here.

thesheriff443 16-02-2018 03:44 PM

Should be bigger fines for it and jail terms, there is a clear link between it and mental health problems plus you break a cigarette to make one and smoke it without a filter.

thesheriff443 16-02-2018 03:48 PM

people driving with canabis in their system is just the same as someone drink driving.

thesheriff443 16-02-2018 03:54 PM

Even if it was legalised like alcohol it would have a regulated strength, so dealers would other stronger gear for those want a bigger hit.

thesheriff443 16-02-2018 03:59 PM

I know a dick that was having the company van taken off him for testing positive to smoking canabis, I said can't you you give up it up?, he said I would not give up my weed for a job and this twat has about four kids with two woman that he does not support

montblanc 16-02-2018 04:02 PM

I don't understand that constant need to be sedated - be it alcohol or drugs. People are so obsessed with it and this all area is overrated.

joeysteele 16-02-2018 06:00 PM

Legalised absolutely.

Jordan. 16-02-2018 07:13 PM

It's dumb to have it criminalised when compared to other substances that aren't, but I just associate it with stinking chavs so idrc too much.

That's not true. I've driven drunk a few times as a youngster as I grew up in a rural area with nothing around, and I've driven loads of times stoned, and trust me; being drunk and driving is scarily dangerous. Being stoned and driving is nowhere near dangerous. I understand it has to be illegal because inebriation and handling potential death machines isn't a good idea, but they are in no way comparable.
