"Hours later, eight former heads of the Drug Enforcement Administration, which has led America’s drug war for decades, expressed alarm that federal laws were not being enforced. One predicted that stoned drivers would leave roads “littered with fatalities”."
ha ha ha ha ha ha haaaaaaaaa... coz no stoners currently drive on the roads.
A step forwards.
I didn't think!!! I experimented!!!
With thier push for banning ciggarettes do you really think they will legalise or even decriminalise weed anytime soon. Despite new revenue from tax and saving on stupid court hearins and prison expenses, I doubt it will ever happen. Hell, even the greens have given up.![]()
I would quite like mine to be available in licorice allsort, and energy drink can forms thank you. It would eliminate the harm risk from inhaling hot tar (lung cancer/heart disease), so a winner from the healthcare perspective there too.
Hey Madness, you want a piece of this carrot cake?
Things are moving quickly now.
And I've given up grog weed and coffee, go figure!!

The head of the United Nations Development Programme, Helen Clark, says there is increasing evidence that the war on drugs has failed, with criminalisation often creating more problems than it solves.
Speaking ahead of the presentation of the UNDP's 2013 Human Development Report, the former New Zealand Prime Minister said Latin American leaders in particular should be encouraged to develop different policies to tackle the drug scourge.
She said as a former health minister herself she had no doubt the health position would be to treat the issue of drugs as primarily a health and social issue rather than a criminalised issue.
In recent years, many Latin American governments have begun to openly challenge the 40-year orthodoxy of the US-led "war on drugs" that seeks to stamp out the cultivation and distribution of drugs such as marijuana and cocaine.

Life after cannabis prohibition: The city announces its ambitions

The Copenhagen Model will see the production, sale and consumption of cannabis legalised, but many questions remain

The tide is turning against the criminalisation of cannabis. Portugal, the Netherlands and several US states have to varying degrees decriminalised its use and now Copenhagen has decided to join the movement with a three-year trial to decriminalise the drug.
But while city officials envisage Copenhagen undertaking the world’s most ambitious decriminalisation project – both the production and sale would be legalised – large questions remain about what shape the so-called 'Copenhagen Model' would actually take.
yep and Dakta Green will feel somewhat vindicated I'm sure, especially as his 'model' of the cannabis club has taken off in the states. Seems like they are opening up all over. Was a lot of fun for me, great spirits amongst the punters, a bit like a great war ending. I miss the pool tables
