Dobbed in weed-growing parents

[Mushu]

I think its more the fact that weed aint really a problem for me, I can take it or leave it. I like a good smoke every now and then, but I certainly don't become a blithering mess if I don't have any. The justice department questionare makes me an addict, but the councilors questionare makes me an occasional user with no addiction.

For anybody who thinks weed is terrible and addictive, I've been back smoking it daily for about 2 months but am currently in a very small town in Australia for a family thing and have been there for a week having no weed and zero ill effects, so how is it addictive, I miss my bikes more than my bong at this point.

Some people get addicted to it and get all depressed and shit when they cant get it, I can understand that because I have been that way myself in the past. Is everyone who likes a beer or two after work or at a function an alcoholic? The law is an ASS when it comes to cannabis IMO, alcohol causes far more problems for society than dope, yet they allow it to be advertised on tv and other places. Stupid humans.

What does? Holidays in Colorado? The sniffer dogs at the airport'll be going ape shit when that flight arrives back in NZ. I can't see the puritanical NZer going for it for some unknown reason... we should know our place and know that unleashing such policy on this country would destroy it. It'd be reefer madness, Madness.

lol nice Breaking Bad reference thrown in there. I'll be willing to bet that someone will take that article seriously and use it as proof that cannabis will destroy the world if legalized.

Pity I could never get a visa for America, I'd be on my way Denver right now.

About 147 million people - around 2.5 per cent of the world's population - use cannabis, according to the World Health Organisation. And medicinal properties of the drug are increasingly being recognised.

I wonder what a Chinamans eyes look like after a hooter?????

minor drug conviction. My guess.

More or less what Akzle said, accidental trafficking actually, had controlled medication in my luggage and didn't even know it. 3 Dexamphetamine pills which I couldn't prove I had a script for (cos I didn't) and ten years later they still make a point of bringing the dogs to me every time I go through an airport.

You didn't know they were a controlled drug, or didn't know you had them with you?

I may be wrong, but I would have thought that if you were "innocent" in that of not knowing they were a controlled drug, you would have had a chance to clear your record?

I know they get tough on the excuse, "I didn't know they were in there." Because you have to know what you are carrying by law.

Neither excuse would have been acceptable, anything even close to the realm of drug trafficking gets made into a very big deal. I can't remember what I told them but I know it wasn't the truth..... (I had no idea I had them, if I'd realized I'd have just taken them, there were only 3. But I know I lied about hoe they came to be in my possession)

They told me at the time that they would put a red flag against my name and that I would probably be stopped any time I go through an airport in nz. They didn't say if it would ever be lifted and I still get singled out but it does seem to have relaxed a bit in recent years, and it all happened when I was a minor (just) and well over a decade ago.
