I use cannabis, and I would give the ALCP my party vote.
I use cannabis, but I don't want to waste my party vote on a single-issue party.
I don't use cannabis, but I support legalisation and would give the ALCP my party vote.
I don't use cannabis. I don't oppose legalisation, but won't waste my party vote supporting it.
I don't use cannabis, and I oppose legalisation.
As much as i despise dope. I think it should be legal. Its just as bad as cigarettes, cars, alcohol.....but like all these things its a personal choice.
If you chose to smoke dope, you choose to be a looser, drive a prelude.......making that person a criminal is just waste of the courts time.
If they made eating rubarb illegal, or drinking coffee illegal - what would be the difference?
I ride a bike, and will do so when it becomes illegal - some dope smokers feel the same.

Oops...my bad, couldn't help myself... I always do it, and get paid for it too.... As you were...
Most you will find that we deal with are actually into burgs and other crime, a history check just confirms it.. The hard worker who enjoys a J in privacy at home with the wife isn't the problem and contrary to popular belief on here, I don't give a rats arse.
Personally, small amounts for personal use is not a problem.
Really? How much smoking & growing goes undetected? Surely if the cops were so onto busting smokers the pot heads in this thread wouldn't be conversing in the way they currently are because their arses would have already been busted and they'd be playing mummies & daddies with Bubba.
no, that only confirms the whole thing is a waste of time because even with some of the most intense policing of cannabis in the world and similarly biggest imprisonment, the cops and govt can't wipe it out.
less is used per head in Holland where it's virtually legal
what a massive waste of resources
I went to Amsterdam once (4 or 5 times actually), what surprised me was - although it was legal it was still mainly used by; and reflected a culture of the lower socio class of people (in the kaffe’s anyway).
There’s a way of thinking, of existing that can transport you on to a higher plane, rising above normative carnal life – but few will find it.
Failing that if you want a legal high – try smoking Kat Nip, it works.

Lifes Just one big ride - buckle up or hang on
Prolly just comes in handy to keep it on the 'crime' list as then Police can use any finds for leverage to enlist narcs etc. Saves them having to go planting little white bags of milk sugar powder on people they then allege is class A in the hope of gathering intelligence re harder drugs, like how CHCH drug squad must stoop to do.
6bp - nurses are smarter and usually know more about their specialty area than your average Drs (thats why nurse specialists who've often trained longer than Drs prescribe medicines now) so... not sure what you're getting at.
But there is plenty of scientific evidence above and beyond the anecdotes myself and zillions of other Drs, nurses etc could tell you that dope does exacerbate psychotic illness as surely as night follows day. 2 boring and technical to get into. I find most people just like to know how the science all impacts on real life events. Too hard explaining psychosis / psychopharmacology to people that don't know their gaba from their dopamine soz.
its not obligatory to throw alcohol and ciggys in to such discussions I don't think - unless you are a confirmed THC-bot with well rehearsed lines. Now I'm just waiting for ppl to mention Souza, the head harm minimisation guru - and the ex US police Commissioner who supports legalisation. Then this thread will be complete.
Incidentally Idle, some articles I've seen say that dope use went UP 40% after they changed Dutch law.
I read the same...however.... it also stated that while it went up 40% this was concentrated in a target population. And that per head, the average dropped. It became a more or less more concentrated within the addicts, as it was no longer considered a difficult task.
I also agree that nurses are smart cookies, as the nurses i studied with were up 70% of the time i was (i was stupid). They also seem to be more realistic. However without a Thesis - if they have any knowledge on a particular matter. It is difficult for them to communicate it to the medical world. Hence the research based nurses end up becoming doctors to get heard.
I have one simple philosophy in life, you live to enjoy life, as long as your enjoyment doesn't hurt no one else, you are fine.
I used to be a very heavy dope smoker - it didn't hurt anybody, but i forced myself to do better for myself. It took many years (in fact i still find it hard if someone sparks up near me), but i did it.
But why should i take the side of forcing my thoughts down another dope smokers throat. They don't shove their opinions down mine. Just because they smoke it does not affect me at all. Its their natural choice to fuck themselves up. If its not something thats grown, I'm sure they would find a processed alternative. Choose the best of 2 evils.

Another comment I take exception to. It may have `fucked` you up, but it sure as hell ain`t fucking me up. Speak for yourself. I know people who have been `fucked up` because of motorbikes, cars, crossing the road, drinking alcohol. Just because some have, doesn`t mean that applies to everyone.
