Just another pro-weed article by another junkie with a Phd. I dream of the day when goverments do not have to spend money on anti-drug law enforcement because the market for the garbage has dried up. I have only one question for the pro-weed crowd, WHY?!?

So people who smoke more potent marijuana smoke less – the same way most drinkers consume a smaller amount of vodka than they would of beer – and incur less chance of smoking-related damage to their lungs. stupid, stupid argument ... you're still drunk ... and you're still high ... and you might do something stupid like drive ...

PJ Arends wrote: Until someone can give me a logical, well thought out reason why marijuana (or any other hallucinagenic(sp?) ) drug is a good or neccesary thing I will continue to oppose them "necessary" ? i imagine opposing everything that isn't necessary probably keeps you very very busy. marijuana is good in the same way any other non-addictive drug is good. i'm having a hard time naming many non-addictive drugs, though - all the well-loved legal ones (alcohol, nicotine, caffeine) are very addictive. but, as with those three, it's a recreational device. people enjoy the effect, and the vast majority of users don't turn into vegetables or frothing lunatics. that said, i'm not a big fan of it myself. but i don't think it's my place to tell other people what to do with their lives.

Cur non? People are sent in jail, have their life broken, just because they want to do something which doesn't have any consequence on others' freedom. Why is weed forbidden in western nations? Because we didn't cultivate cannabis sativa under our latitudes, only third world countries did. No medical or moral reasons there. It is more than time to stop the hypocrisy and to face the problems caused by prohibition. IMHO, they are much more higher than the ones caused by a legalization process.

Is it possible to find now a stronger weed than some years ago? Yes, definitively. I've tasted things coming from Holland which were hallucinating (no pun intended :) ). The question is, is this weed more dangerous? Hum, I don't think so. Is whisky more dangerous than beer? Hard to say if you don't mention the associated quantity... Is weed harmless? No, of course. If it doesn't create any physical dependencies, it may "create" a psychological one (and IMO then weed isn't the main factor, somebody with such an addiction would have found another product if it wasn't weed). Moreover, some people are much more sensitive to THC, and may develop psychological failures, as paranoïa and schizophrenia. Sadly, because of the politization of the subject, it's hard to find a scientific, non partisan study on this. Nonetheless, I don't believe prohibition is the solution. Look at France, for example: we have the thougher laws against the use of cannabis in all Europe, and we have also the higher proportion of young people smoking marijuana...go figure! The product has side effects, but seems to me much less dangerous than alcohol or tobacco, both legal products. That's why I am for the legalization, that is the definition of a legal frame to the consumption of hemp, something different from depenalization. Young people must be protected, because they don't have experience enough to control the use of weed and its consequences. It would remove a lot of money from a criminal business, provide a new source of money for the government, and enable a control of the quality of the product (you can't imagine what you can find in a bar of cannabis :mad: )

PJ Arends wrote: One just has to take their head out of the sand and look around, you will see victims. It depends - do you propose that suicide is not a victimless crime, because it is murder ? The majority of suffering as a result of drugs is not because of the drugs, but because of our legal systems response to their existance. The fact that these laws do not reflect common sense is a reflection on politians who are scared to lose the votes of the uninformed.
