It should not be allowed to any young ppl cause it causes so much damage imo.
Do u need a reason not to allow children to use such stuff.
C'mon its like putting an atomic bomb on some country. There is no valid reason 4 doing it.

Since when have robberies been caused by such things as weed, people who generally smoke weed aren't these 'smack-heads' that are going around robbing people, drug-related crimes are usually caused by people into the more expensive drugs, weed isn't exactly the most expensive drug around is it? I doubt that people would be stealing to buy tobacco, only the people who are severely poor would do such a thing, a lot of the people who smoke it have jobs and things, earn their money, not just steal...

I'm tha person

No questions asked and no doubt about it.

Imagine if the death penality was re-instated with this idea. :|

So then put an age limit on such things, being legalized doesn't mean that anyone can just smoke it surely, they will probably put age limits on it just like they do anything else like tobacco, knivies, solvents, alcohols etc... It has more point than tobacco smoking...

Children will always get their hands on such products, kids are constantly getting drunk, stoned whatever...

Why not do it, so many people already acquire it somehow, I'm not stating any ways, but they do... So if so many people have it, why not legalize it, put an age limit on it... Why don't we ban alcohol, weed has not had a single recorded death, the usual cause is smoking 'fags' (cigarettes)...

And in that case it is not actually the drug that is killing you, it is the stuff that comes with the drug in order to make it cost effective.

At the moment the organised criminals are operating at around 2000% profit margins. And the multi billion pound market is in the control of the criminals. By legalising it, governments can take contorl of the market, i.e. regulate it, instill quality control checks, and most importantly, tax it. Any deaths that do arise from legal cannabis use will mean the government is under more pressure to do more research into drug use, and also there will be better health care because of increased revenue from taxation.

Also, the argument that illegal drug trafficing will still exist even in with drugs legalised is a load of rubbish. Sure, you cant get rid of the market completletly, but most people are more likely to buy some cannabis from a lisenced pharmacist, than the dodgy bloke outside it, even if it means they can save themselves a couple of quid.

if your going to disscuss something, then please use proper english to explain what "skins" and "bifs" are, if skins are the stuff you wrap the drug in, then you could buy the drug roll up style, much like you buy roll up cigarettes.

Duno what a bif is, but im sure it could be bought with the drug in a mini kit type thing.
