| 1233383 | 2011-09-26 03:22:00 | Perhaps all drugs should be decriminalized Incl P, heroin, esctacy, aspirin & chocolate reasons being 1) alcohol is bad 2) the law doesnt work. People still use drugs 3) Its making drug users & sellers/dealers criminals 4) people have died from those nasty legal drugs, incl coffee 5) police resources could be better used in Parking infringements & speed traps 6) Making Alcohol cheaper & easy to get had no bad effects on society. Lesson learned. :groan: but seriously, how can we justify decriminalizing one drug but not all the others?? Unfortunately , some(many) of the public cant be trusted with their own health & welfare. Thats why we need laws. :p |

| 1233384 | 2011-09-26 03:26:00 | of course it is . Not physically addictive, but mentally addictive. Thats why we all know or knew someone who's life revolves around weed, & who cannot/will not go without Ive seen the long term effects on people Ive known. It leaves them punch drunk. OK, let's make this the debate topic. It's sure not my thing but I know a lot of people who have/do use it. Those who don't much or at all anymore, had no problem stopping. About as hard as giving up extreme physical exercise. Those who do use it, don't have any issues in day to day existence. They work, one or two in quite skilled jobs, have kids, mortgages, a life. Yes there probably are some who sit about zonked all day not getting off their bums, or think they may need to progress to another drug, but then you could say the same about alcohol too. Not all drinkers become alcoholics or take up other drugs do they? Same thing. |

And, finally, we don't need the Police - we are going to save millions of tax-payers money. Better still, we certainly don't need those people sitting at the Beehive - this will save huge, huge sum of money! What an ideal situation! |

| 1233389 | 2011-09-26 04:52:00 | Weed. Non-addictive Feels great relieves pain enhances music costs nothing, Anyone can grow their own. No adverse health effects Why the hate? Sure, some people prefer to be mildly stoned all day, some people use it as a crutch, and some people are just retarded, That doesn't make it addictive, It just tells you a few things about the people they talked to, the same people would probably be heavy users of couch medicine if they didn't have some weed to get them by. The fact that they spend billions on making the weed look bad and come up with such pathetic results should have all the haters asking why?, what the hell is going on here? Put your brains in gear people, What is it everyone is so afraid of? |

| 1233390 | 2011-09-26 05:19:00 | Excellent, lets criminalize those as well then. I'm all for it. But since that isn't happening, we should de-criminalize Mary-Jane. Metla has it summed up. +1. |
