I've never smoked it but I think it's ridiculous that it's criminalised. There is literally no real argument for making it an illegal substance.

It poses no health risks (tainted strains can cause some mental issues but that wouldn't be an issue if they legalised it) and it's far better for your health than alcohol or cigarettes, both of which can kill. People smoking weed are generally more agreeable and less likely to cause issues than a drunk person would and if they legalised it, it would probably bring in more tax money than cigarettes would plus regulations when it comes to growing weed to be sold would likely solve issues involving the previously mentioned tainted strains that you can get if you buy it off a dealer.

It's long past due for it to be decriminalised.

It doesn't have to be tainted to trigger schizophrenia. It does mess with the brain. People need to be careful. However, filling up prisons with people over smoking pot is ridiculous.

It triggers latent schizophrenia in those so predisposed, yeah. It's not a direct causative effect.

So throwing a whitey's justification for locking up peeps who fancied a high?

Basically what Dezzy said

Let's not forget cannabis was a legit form of medication in the olden days. People still use it for medicinal purposes today. (Probably already mentioned but cbf reading back)

I really don't think that was what Kizzy said.

Obviously not directly but I know kizzy's part of the anti-weed squad. The thing about these arguments against legalising weed is that most of them are rooted in personal bias and subjectivity. It's one thing to not rate drugs as a person but that doesn't hold water when it comes to debating its legality.

I did it in March for the first time in like three years, I did it quite a bit in 2012 - 2013

Things are definitely more fun when they're illegal and before the squares all get involved...............kinda' like Glastonbury. Not that it was ever illegal but it was much more fun before everyone and their nan started going.

I'm not a big smoker but some of my friends are so I always end up smoking it like 3 times a week. I like it but I don't know how people can be constantly high I enjoy being sober to much.

I smoke it way too much. I have friends over in the evenings and we just do it

It smells of old teabags.
