How would you feel about the legalisation of cannabis in your country?

I appreciate we all have different views based on our differing experiences and understandings of the drug, but wonder how open minded you are towards its benefits, especially in comparison to other drugs that are legal, namely alcohol.
I think if grownups choose to use substances that aren't the most healthy, it's their business and we should not be filling our jails, wasting law enforcement and justice system effort to protect them from themselves. That's not government's job.
@JovialPlutonian Pretty rare to get it organic ... that's not the most lucrative productiom method. But probably no worse than the veggies we eat...except for the smoke in the lungs.

@JovialPlutonian exactly! Not tinkering with it.
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
@Mamapolo2016 funny you say that I've been collecting land race seeds on my travels. Hopefully it'll be legal in uk by the time I get bk :)
Well they have legalized it and it's awesome! You can buy it online and it gets delivered in the post.
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
Where are you, the states?@MrBlueGuy
Joker · 36-40, M
Depends. Edibles etc is fine, but anything that would effect a non-smoker in any way im against. Someone shouldnt have to walk around with a buzz to make someone else happy. Ive seen people effected cy the smoke that dont smoke themselves thats it unbelievable. Drink it or eat it to get fucked up or heal your pain, dont make others uncomfortable.
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
@Joker by all means use with respect towards other :)
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
@Joker edibles is a good compromise

@JovialPlutonian amen brother

I think weed is mild compared to alcohol
Starcrossed · 41-45, F
Happy, relieved. I use it medicinally already.
Eternity · 26-30, M
Legalize it! Its a fuckin plant! Alchohol fits the description of a schedule one substance much better than weed does yet it is legal.
GerOttman · 61-69, M
Oh for the love of god and on the great buddha's belly stop harassing people over a plant... Then start walking back the rest of it.
I'd be delighted and consequently far more relaxed.

@AnonymouslyYours I like your username 😍
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
@AnonymouslyYours yeh I agree
Anon066 · 31-35, M
I've yet to hear a single decent argument against it.

Almost all drugs should be legal imo.
Entwistle · 56-60, M
I feel it should be legalised here in the UK.
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
@Entwistle soon buddy soon. Although it's quite nice how it is in uk atm. Wouldn't like the idea of it being more expensive but would love to grow my own.
Entwistle · 56-60, M
@JovialPlutonian indeed.Spot on!
Ryannnnnn · 31-35, M
Honestly, it'd be nice but really expensive after tax so i'd probably still buy it off people i know unless you can grow yourself.
Anon066 · 31-35, M
12 here.
Ryannnnnn · 31-35, M
@Anon066 Convenience and quality/choice would be worth it for me.
Anon066 · 31-35, M
Ya the choice factor is amazing lol.
MaryJo1996 · 26-30, F
It's a drug. No. No. No.
GlitterBug · 22-25, F
Fair enough. Doesn’t hurt to ask. @MaryJo1996
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
@GlitterBug oh I express myself for anyone that has ears to listen wasn't necessarily directed at you but seemed relevant to the conversation.
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
@MaryJo1996 fair dos
It’s legal in my state and I’m glad that it means it can be regulated, so people who buy can know what they’re getting; neither buyers nor sellers are criminalized on the state level. Unfortunately, DUIs have increased because common sense can’t be legislated, and some people don’t get that like alcohol, cannabis alters one’s awareness, making driving unsafe.
@CountScrofula I would still say wait until a year has passed. People expect there to be a learning curve and the rates to level out, so we’ll see.

JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
@bijouxbroussard that fair enough. Sorry I'm particularly self-righteous, I don't mean to come across as on the attack 😔
Lindaisfun · 26-30, F
It kind of is already in many states. But not nationally yet
Lindaisfun · 26-30, F
@MrBrownstone lol. What do you mean
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
@Lindaisfun You toke
Lindaisfun · 26-30, F
@MrBrownstone only sometimes. Not all the time. Maybe like once a month.
lorne13 · 61-69, M
Alcohol is a toxin, cannabis is much easier on the body
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
@lorne13 I agree edibles would be better for health, although I do like to toke.
lorne13 · 61-69, M
@JovialPlutonian I got some pretty fine cookies
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
@lorne13 😋😋😋

Cannabis is. And I must emphasize it. For losers. And I mean THC to be specific.

There aren't any long term studies on lifestyle correlation. And it does cause dependance.

If someone needs weed to get through the day, all hope is lost.
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
@Anon066 blimmey it was just a question not a matter of academics lol don't read too much into it.
Anon066 · 31-35, M
No not you, wifebeater lol.
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
@Anon066 lol
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
It’s a plant. What’s more natural than that?
Heartlander · 80-89, M
In the US, there are plenty enough other reasons to put people in jail. Criminal behavior should be about doing things that harm other people.
ozgirl512 · 26-30, F
While it's less harmful than most, I do have fears for the future
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
@ozgirl512 what fears?
ozgirl512 · 26-30, F
@JovialPlutonian a basic zoning out of a large part of the population ... Asia is concentrating on education and research

@Kingfish28 humans have been manipulated for God knows how long without weed.
At this point, I'm willing to test that theory.@Kingfish28

I am all for legalisation. Marijauna is NOT a cure but it IS a beneficial drug for many reasons
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
@JaggedLittlePill it's a teacher plant
The long-term effects of alcohol are well understood and there usually aren't any when done in moderation. Weed, on the other hand, is less well-known and a lot of what is known isn't good!
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
@ImperialAerosolKidFromEP but I accept that many don't go as far to use it for that
@JovialPlutonian true, but plenty of other substances do that too, but they are also dangerous. Unlike pot, they are administered responsibly
