Cannabis

[Muniflex]

It may be classified as a B class......

Thought i'd let you know:)

[Spectate]

Ohh do you know the reasons for this? I always thought it was more likely that it would get declassified.

[Swearwolf]

In that case, why isn't alcohol class A

[Corporal]

Ohh do you know the reasons for this? I always thought it was more likely that it would get declassified.
Its already a C class:|

[Swearwolf]

Its already a C class:|

and if it goes down 1 class it would be declassified

[Spectate]

and if it goes down 1 class it would be declassified

Yup. I got the impression it would go down rather than up if it was going to change.

[Kewl]

It may be going up to deter people from doing it.

"People found guilty of possessing a Class B drug could go to jail for up to five years and be fined. "

[jesus]

In that case, why isn't alcohol class Abecause that means 'class A drug', and alcohol isn't a drug.

[benjamin]

because that means 'class A drug', and alcohol isn't a drug.yes it is lol

[Muniflex]

yes it is lol

It's one of the most addictive!

[Pyroka]

=/ Do the MPs have any sense? The coppers would agree, this is outrageous. They're legalising drugs to ease the pressure off them, and it's awful. Cannabis is really bad, and I can't even take it if I wanted to. Apparently I have schitzofrenic properties when taking Cannabis. All my uncles take Cannabis and they're all schitz... It's a family property apparently.

I'm sure there's others like me. It's outrageous though, all drugs are harmful in the end. They may as well just ditch the classes system and rule it at a solid "If you've got drugs, you're locked up" & depending on how many grams you have, you get given a certain sentence. The system is being abused now, and has been for quick a while actually. I think the Police force should have a significant say on this, seeing as they are the people dealing with those on drugs, and know the effects & seriousness of them.

Wait no, that'd be common sense and the MPs are too corrupt to think about that. They should so be forced to be Police Officers, I mean all MPs like the did in the old days... Yeah, I watched City of Vice last night. (:


It is and it's a more dangerous drug than cannabis.
Only reason alcohol is legal is because the government get tax from it.


As much as I love my alcohol, I have to agree. Not so much about the seriousness of it, but it is addictive. The effects aren't as long as Cannabis could be.

And it has nothing to do with it being helpful rather then harmful.

[jesus]

alcohol isnt a drug that needs to be classed tho :S

[Swearwolf]

They only class illegal drugs

[benjamin]

neither is cannabis in some peoples eyes.

[jesus]

neither is cannabis in some peoples eyes.but its illegal so they are wrong.

[Corporal]

but its illegal so they are wrong.
Do you think that black people and white females should be allowed to vote?

[drama]

alcohol is a drug.. if it came out say.. 10 years ago, it would be class A (and responsinble for the most drug related deaths).

[jesus]

Do you think that black people and white females should be allowed to vote?whats that got to do with anything in this thread?

[benjamin]

but its illegal so they are wrong.
no, they're not 'wrong' because it's their opinion..

[Corporal]

whats that got to do with anything in this thread?
Because if you think yes, then not so long ago it was illegal for them to do that.
Just trying to say that just because its illegal doesnt mean that there in the wrong. So you cant really use that as a point.

[jesus]

no, they're not 'wrong' because it's their opinion..uh okay then...


Because if you think yes, then not so long ago it was illegal for them to do that.
Just trying to say that just because its illegal doesnt mean that there in the wrong. So you cant really use that as a point.i'll keep my opinions to myself next time then

[Corporal]

i'll keep my opinions to myself next time then
I never said that. I do agree with you, it should be illegal.
im just saying that you cant use that as a point.

All drugs should be heavily enforced by the law, just recent watering down of prison terms under New Labour makes this impossible under this government.

[lew!]

Yes but quite a lot of people get violent and do bad things on alchohol, whereas on cannabis, it may relax you out, the few odd people might get violent but most people just get relaxed.

[jesus]

[PureQuest]

I think cannabis should be legalised in UK.

Everything about it is better than Tobacco.

stop turning everything political please.

this is all about health and social problems - nothing to do with the government.

I personally believe we should go to an approach like the Netherlands - especially on cannabis. It's so stupid, trying to criminalize things people enjoy doing. They could tax it and make cash. Some people might go schizo, yer, but people get heart attacks from eating fatty foods and cancer from ****.

[benjamin]

although it can lead to experimenting with more serious and addictive drugs, which ruins lives.
it cannabis was legal then it would be widely available pretty much, and people would just see it as a drug like alcohol - so why would they try experimenting with more serioues drugs? people don't do it when they drink alcohol?

[jesus]

it cannabis was legal then it would be widely available pretty much, and people would just see it as a drug like alcohol - so why would they try experimenting with more serioues drugs? people don't do it when they drink alcohol?most people who are addicted to serious drugs started off smoking just cannabis first. trust me, i know.

[Jordy]

;4420859']stop turning everything political please.

this is all about health and social problems - nothing to do with the government.It clearly is, who do you think proposes Law's and acts of parliaments? It isn't the political government by any chance is it?! Why do you think the NHS lay down health law's or something? Most news relates to politics some how.


All drugs should be heavily enforced by the law, just recent watering down of prison terms under New Labour makes this impossible under this government.Not only do they get let out of jail early, they also get the drugs while they're in prison with corrupt prison officers and drugs being thrown over security fences.

[drama]

it is already though.
if it was legalised, it would take away the 'glamour' for some kids who do it for the trend/to look cool.

[RedStratocas]

because that means 'class A drug', and alcohol isn't a drug.

incorrect! :D alcohol is five times more of a drug than marajana!

anyway, i dont know about your UK problems, but i am 100% for the legalization of weed in the U.S. the only reason it's not legal is because they don't know how they would tax it, because our country is run by greedy idiots, mmhm. otherwise, there's no reason it should be illegal. absolutely none.

[benjamin]

yeah i know i ment even moreso, and yeah that's what i was trying to get at :P

[Prick]

They've been planning to maybe putting cannabis up to a class b for ages

[Shrlurp]

Good,

Hopefully the government crack down on drugs!

[lew!]

I do occasonally smoke weed, but not like.. all the time if you know what i mean, Its OK if you smoke a bit of it now and again just to calm you down a bit from time to time, aslong as you just dont addicted. But as i said before i think in SOME cases, its better than alchohol becuase how many times have you seen people get paraletic and do stupid things like start fights, suicide and even murder? and what about cannabis?, the rates are lower when people are 'high' than drunk

Thats the problem though, jail space is significantly decreasing and people are being released early because of it, so i don't really think someone taking cannabis is gonna get locked up..


aslong as you just dont addicted

Oh and it's very unlikely anyone taking it gets addicted..

[alexxxxx]

i don't really care if its reclassified or not. I don't like it.

and jordy what part of nottingham you from?

[drama]

also worth noting, from a personal point of veiw (and some interveiw-ie said it)..

If it's reclassified, it will still be as easy to get hold of, because where i am, it is litterally a phone call away :rolleyes:-Waits for some smartarse remark going: oh your hard@!@!- :rolleyes:

[patrick.]

OH YOUR HARD

[tdi]

Cannabis is legal in some areas of Amsterdam. I'm not sure what actually making it legal would do, whether people would just be baked all the time or if they'd use it responsibly.

Tobacco is more addictive than Heroin, it is also more harmful than Cannabis, yet it's still on sale for the very reason that the government make a piss load of tax from it.

responsibility wouldnt come into it!

[Catzsy]

alcohol isnt a drug that needs to be classed tho :S

Alcohol is just as addictive and causes more problems and deaths in society than Cannabis does not that I am in favour of drugs. Alcohol and tobacco have been around for centuries so have never been classified. Alcohol is probably only less dangerous to the population than Heroin and Cocaine which are pretty lethal.

Yes alcohol can lead to serious mental disorders when taken to excess - I have personal experience of this in my family. Yes in some people Cannabis can lead to all sorts of mental issues too such as paranoia. I do think that people find this argument as an excuse to take drugs. I think that the government is a bit hypocritical when it comes to this and maybe drugs should be available on prescription as it would stop most of the Criminal offences such as Drug dealing, Burglary, theft. It would not stop the anti social behaviour but at least the people would be under the supervision of a medical person and what they do to their own bodies is their business.
