Default Cannabis - Whats The Harm?

Interesting Documentory

Views?

Mine - I don't mind what people choose to do. I don't agree with dealing but if people want to grow their own for personal use, go for it

Regardless of your own personal opinion on it, the law does more damage than the substance itself and that's a stone cold fact.

Man.

Man.
This.

The fact it's illegal, makes people want to buy it even more.
If everyone's given a chance to take it if they want or to avoid it, then it's less likely to be took.

Same goes for Alcohol's age limit.

You were either:

1) Proving to us that you probably don't go to some Posh Private School by showing that level of stupidity.

Or

2) You were trying to win a few of the lads over by acting stupid and making everyone LOL in some weird attempt to become TiBB's Answer to Jade Goody.

I actually think it'd be something I may turn to if I had certain medical conditions. I doubt I'd use it otherwise as I hate feeling out of control and dizzy so that first try I'd be terrified but if in enough pain or whatever I'd do it

It does very little harm in comparison to alcohol and tobacco, I say legalise it. I would be in favour of legalising all drugs really, regardless of how harmful they are, lets allow people to start making the decisions for themselves on things like this and stop having the government make it for them.

Actually.. Now.. I think you are right. Legalise the lot! We are all taught "not" to take them. Therefore if someone takes the cocaine and ecstasy and dies then it's their fault. It will take the drugs to be legalised to actually send out a message of how harmful the products can be.

If people want it bad enough, they'll get it.

I'm in two minds about the 'harder' stuff. But like I say, it doesn't really deter people, it being illegal. Tricky one

Would like tougher laws on drug-driving though but that goes for drink driving too. Sick of people thinking it's fine to do either and just getting a slap on the wrist

Yeah I think responsibility should be given to the individual to use whatever substance they so wish. I dont think it's the role of the government to protect people from themselves and if someone wants to compromise their health by using drugs then they can go ahead, it's their choice at the end of the day. How far and to what great an extent I would go with this view I'm not too sure, but, generally, I think people should have the freedom and the responsiblity to take drugs if that is what they want to do.

Maybe I'm being a bit unrealistic with that but that is my belief on the issue

You have just made a compelling argument as to why drugs should not be legalised.......You state Alcohol and tobacco do more harm. Why do you think that is...Blindingly obvious.......They are legal so more take such substances hence more harm.......A case why no more drugs should be legalised. If they were then you would see the same amount of harm as does alcohol and tobacco........


The drugs culture be it alcohol or others is a sad culture........People who are failing personality wise to enjoy life without the assistance of chemicals.......A dependancy on a fake drug induced personality..Unreal people while under the influence like alcoholics .........

What a sad sad 21st century of plastic people created by modern chemistry and a lack of ability to live life naturally..........

if you think the 21st century is bad, you should try the 19th or 18th over and farther back.

Do you honestly think that we live in worse times than centuries past?

I assure you....We don't.
