Believe me, the ching that is 35 quid is not ****e, its apparently peruvian.

All i know is its nice clean coke that isnt half bad, and not cut with snide **** 6/4 like the **** from some so called dealers!

And a quarter of weed is not a large amount;)

Think about it, person "A" smokes a few joints, gets the munchies, ends up chilled out on the sofa. If he's pre desposed he might, only MIGHT lose a bit upstairs.
Person "B" goes out, downs several pints of Stella, gets into a fight, 1/2 kills someone, ends up doing 4years in prison.

Do you know how many deaths have been caused by cannabis? 2, yes just 2 deaths have been put down to cannabis and thats not 100%.

I think the government should legalise it, then they could regulate it better and think about how much tax they could make on it!!!! Come on Gord' you're missing out on a tax bundle there!

Now I know a few people who smoke cannabis and I've never known them to get mouthy or violent on it, yet I know people who when they have had a drink get violent and really mouthy so I actually prefer spending time with my mates who smoke cannabis.

Now it is a case of because alcohol is legal and cannabis isn't you are all thinking drinking is ok but cannabis is really bad as the government has made it illegal so therefore is evil.

Btw I don't smoke cannabis myself as I tried it once and it just sends me to sleep which isn't much fun!

I just think from personal experience that cannabis is less harmful than drinking. Then again I suppose it effects everyone differently.

Hope the above makes sense :confused:

How does having a smoke encourage class a use?

The answer is it doesnt.

weed dealers are usually chilled out types, but you get the odd unsavoury one who sell other stuff, this is where the encouragement comes in, not from weed itself!

And to all the people who said it may be coppers going for easy targets, the two houses i mentioned are in an ok part of town, have scally smack heads hanging round all day, have been complained about more than once (in one case it was my missus mum who did the complaining), are obvious for all to see, i could even tell you the name of half the customers cos they went to my school.

No police ever sit nearby to discourage sales, or search scallies who are hanging around, or seem to do anything about it at all.

But at the monent they are driving round known smoking spots and searching cars, and just generally clamping down!

What sort of policy dictates leave the harmful class a dealers alone, but stop normal, hard working people from having a smoke of a night time?

Tackle the hard drugs first is my point


Surely coke shouldnt be easier to get hold of and cheaper than weed?

I would feel pretty confident in saying that more people snort coke than smoke weed in the UK. Just go to any busy late night spot and see for yourself.
