I dont think that artical you found is legit, WesDawg. I heard that they were TRYINg to make it legal by passing the Bill ( Bill C10 to be exact) But I dont think it ever went through... Or at least not as far as I'm concerned. I really dont think it is. I would have heard about it.

What the hell are a bunch of potheads going to do that could possibly be worse than being intoxicated because of alcohol?

Mug you for Visine and your bag of Lays, maybe hit up the Mentos if the munchies are really bad?

I've driven a car when I was stoned and the problem was me being more slower and cautious than going off the roads and being wreckless. Needless to say, I only did weed three times and I don't plan on it again because it's too much of a trip at this age, but pot smokers in general are not going to harm the general public in the way alcoholics or drunkards can.

The links indicated that use by young people could lead to increase risk of psychotic reactions. Seems it (thc) is chemically related to endorfin which is associated with pleasure. Funny thing they say that about coke as well?
I started thinking those few individuals who go around being happy all the time, they must suffer the same effect?
No wonder they are always happy, they must be insane!

Ya then u get into the scene what is use vs abuse? Look at aspirin (sp) low dose is healthy, thins blood reducing the risk of heart attack? But not in all cases & certainly to varing degree dependent upon the individual & their medical history.

But the negative effects are greatly exaggerated, adverse reactions are few & minimal as related to the effects of even pharmacy varity of remedies?
So if u smoke pot u r contributing to terrorism, not contributing to the greater wealth of the few, the priveledged normal people (life)?
After all they must stamp out these terrorist before they destroy their [rule] world! Once terrorism is destroyed out of the world then the world will be safe for (jesus) democracy!

Well hear is a Canadian From Vancouver British Columbia. In Canada the criminal justice program is really different and really slack. marijuanna they see as a waste of time, and is considered decriminalised. This means that the worst a cop can do to you is give you a fine, for posseccion under 15 grams or around a 1/2 ounze for your imperial system. Pretty soon canadians will be allowed to grow up to 3 plants for personal use(and for me to make some money on the side) which is going into legislature sometime in 2005.

Marijuanna is sweet and wickedly fun but it does cause shit in our country. Like the average person doing it is fine but unfortunately it causes gang wars. Hells Angels kill Bandidos over turf and Asian gangsters are always busy killing each other which causes people to have been caught in the crossfire.

But because of slack laws and slack police and good lawyers are weed is way better and way cheaper. I pay 100 for AAA cronic in the quantity of an ounze. but that's cause i know people. Tourists get it for 200. Anyway Vancouver is seen as the north amarican Amsterdam and u bois should check it out in the summer(in the winter all it does is rain) peace out homes.

I would think legalization would be better than decriminalization, looking at probation period in our country. Believe it or not there are some places still where alcohol is illegal?

Uh, no. Gang wars are caused by a myriad of circumstances, mainly due to poverty and oppression.

And a main reason to have a war over any drug is because its made illegal making personal choice and addiction criminal acts. More forms of oppression.

U.S. Drops Criminal Inquiry of CIA Anti-drug Effort in Peru
New York Times

- After a secret three-year investigation, federal prosecutors have decided to end a criminal inquiry into whether at least four Central Intelligence Agency officers lied to lawmakers and their agency superiors about a clandestine anti-drug operation that ended in 2001 with the fatal downing of a plane carrying American missionaries, Justice Department officials said this week.
Instead, the officials said, any charges would have stemmed primarily from earlier actions in which CIA officers in Peru allowed an erosion in safeguards drawn up in consultation with the Justice Department, in part as protection against possible criminal liability.
