The govt is not going to allow any competition to its own drug business - theres too much money at stake.

If the numbers are accurate about the number of cannabis users I don't think money would be an issue, the government could tax the crap out of it if it became a legal drug.

I have a slightly different take on this than the average pot head does.
First off,I don't really care if people want to make their lives more bareable by either smoking weed or getting shit faced on booze.
But I also don't mind in the lest seeing old names getting busted and being taken off the streets.
One name in particular came up this week,,one willie wong tung,30 year monkey mob member.
Numerous convictions for violence,drug dealing,car and motorcycle thefts,rape and a few others I can't recall.
It's been a long time ago I had any contact with the shit head so I haven't kept up with what he's been up to since then,but yeah I remember him well.
Anyway his latest great idea was to use whanau ora funds to buy 3lbs of weed.
Got busted on the cook straight ferry while transporting it to the south island.
Then there were the two busted with a house and several sheds FULL of weed out at Whatawhata this week,,,not totaly sure yet,but I think I know both those arsewipes as well.
So the cops have taken them out of the loop,,,if any of you had met these people you'd also agree it was a bloody good thing.
You think the weed laws had anything to do with how these people live their lives,,forget it.
If weed was legal these scum would just be doing something else illegal to make money.
And by the way,,who ever bought it up,the police are doing well in their war with P.
Currently supplies are at an all time low in AK and "some people" are finding it so hard to find they have pushed the price of a point up to $120+.
Quite frankly if the weed laws take even one willie fucking wong tung off our streets,I don't care how much it costs.

clearly,and as usual,the dope smoking free love peace and anarchy hippies still dont get it.

Drugs are a convenient flag for the coppers,because they know that the guys that sell it and supply it are almost always involved in other criminal activities as well.Until this changes(as if)they will continue to use the drugs laws as a convenient"please kick me"sign tatooed on the ass of every stupid criminal out there.

good for them.

Bitches be trippin.

That's solid bloody gold, I ran out of rep shit though

'Tis the way. SMOKEU has a pretty good grasp on grammar though, for a neo-Nazi.

Everything on the interwebs be trueness, so I'll drop this here

Would they be doing the "extras" if it meant that they could lose their growers licence? or is everyone happy with their little stereotypes which allows them to park their brian (yes brian, no I'm brian, no I'm brian, I'm brian (baaaa)) in neutral? Until then we'll just keep banging fuckloads of cash into enforcement and incarceration instead of instantly turning the cannabis "criminal" into a tax paying, productive, out of jail citizen, off the benefit, wheelin and dealin business man.

Good on them, the world needs more brians.

Looks like Stoner has been watching the olympics. Listening to Sky news (oz) last night it looks like the Aussie press is all set to bury their olympic squad already.

A law change to allow the growing for personal use only ... with the penalty's for "under the influence of" and "supply" increased .... I would agree with.

Almost agree... I'd rather we used the existing supply chain. Use the expertise that's available, after all it ain't just plant and leave to grow, well not really. Get some folk off the dole, keep some folk out of jail, keep some folk away from the Police (or vice versa, heh) and open it up to taxation. win win win win. Much better than leaving some folk on the dole, putting those selling it in jail, tying up the Police and making feck all from it, which be lose lose lose lose... I agree with influenced at work/driving/similar to booze etc... the "market' will control the supply and remove the need, as much as can be removed, of the black market that we currently have. Use some of the tax to fund honest medical research (none of that one eyed shit) for providing guidance for the industry. Have the growers, as part of the conditions, grow hemp so that new products can compete in the marketplace... after all that's why it became illegal in the first place. They should be the terms else we run the risk of changing next to nothing and half arseing what could be a sensible use of everyone's time and money for a change. What could possibly go wrong?

Those that can and will grow their own will (can) learn. WINZ paid hort classes at your local polytech .... Win win ...

Gives the "growers" a legitimate qualification too ...

True, but not everyone will want to grow it themselves. Same as all of drinkers don't make their own or smokers blend their own baccy... Damn we're up to 6 WINZ already. Absolutely love the qualification idea... would bling but can't again

It would make the lazy more liable ... with the home grown dope-head out of the court system. Not even a "petty crime" anymore.

With the market of the existing "suppliers" ... dropping considerably ...

Aye, the lazy fook could spend his dope cash on food for his kids if he could grow his own... OMG that's can't be right.

Nothing wrong with a little competition... as long as I get to make my living judging the quality
