Canada is to legalise cannabis from September.
I think this is a good thing.
Plod knows the so called drug war is lost, with the cannabis trade run by baddies, so it is time we legalised it as well.
NHS chief says don't go soft on cannabis. Of course there are bad effects for some, but is remains far safer than nicotine, and alcohol.
Legalising it will lead to,psychosis for some users, but that risk is preferable to the effects of other illegal drugs and of alcohol.
What do you say?

I'm Irish, Ozzy, I know all about moonshine :-)

Vile stuff.
An old boss brought some in for us to try, she couldn't stand the stuff but her brother brought it over for her. I turned it into a honey liqueur and gave it back to her. She asked for the recipe, everyone was happy
If the mild version was available at a reasonable price legally, only those who are desined to fall prey to hard drugs are going to regularly seek out the strong stuff. The idea is to chill out not hammer oneself. Unhidden use and tolerance also facilitates an atmosphere of less stigma to ask for help if needed.
I will never agree that legalising it is a good thing and I too used to smoke it a lot in my younger days. The psychoses it does cause are far more terrifying, common and difficult to treat than people realise and it doesn't have to be the only the strong stuff of today either.

Thank you Spungle. You are an authority on moral philosophy and theology and Christianity?
Oh yes we are all criminals in this family.
Speeding tickets, parking tickets, dropping a fag end outside M&S for an £80 fine. I have thrown a few punches in my time and been barred out of pubs, but I have never had the opportunity to fiddle an expenses sheet, or steal the pens from work. As a factory worker I lowered myself to taking the stuff I needed for jobs at home. Yes I confess it all. I just wish I had always been good and holy like you dear friend.
You are good and holy Theland and you have a cracking sense of humour.

No I am not good and holy.
I am a miserable sinner who needs the forgiveness given freely by the Lord Jesus Christ.

As for cannabis, aren't we as a society hypocrites, when we get all high and mighty and moral over this, yet we sit comfortably with legalised gambling? And alcohol? No need to list the well known problems here.
Yes I think cannabis should be legalised based on solid evidence. A few years ago the governments chief medical advisor was sacked for presenting his evidence based recommendations to legalise cannabis, because it was at odds with the political anecdotal position that the dangers outweighed the benefits of legalisation.
