More good news about cannabis!

Who's talking about 'encouraging' it though? There's a difference between legalising it (with the intent of harm reduction) and encouraging it.

Well if we are going to be pedantic, I get the impression that some posters see nothing wrong in the use of cannabis per se, be it for harm reduction, personal pleasure or whatever .... the op came across a tad flippant IMHO

I smoked daily from age 15 to 27 and I now have psychosis and copd.

I smoked from 16 to 33 and I'm ****ing awesome!

Yes, but did you inhale?

Bloody hope so with the amount I must have spent over the years.

Nothing i do kills anyone , unlike illegal drugs. There is a massive difference between condoning swerving the Taxman and condoning the use of illegal ,dangerous drugs .

Tax avoidance kills no one , unlike illegal drugs.

Making a drug illegal increases the danger of it killing someone.

And no, tax evasion doesn't kill anyone, instead it's theft from everyone.

I think you've missed my point about harm reduction.

Decriminalising drugs reduced the level of harm caused by those drugs.

It doesn't mean encouraging anyone to use them, but if people already wish to use them, they should be free to do so.
