I don't care...
But I would not let anyone in my family consume this thing ;)


Then wil you let them consume alcohol and tobacco? :dodgy:

Of course not.
That's a silly question I'd say.

All of them are dangerous.

I still think that lucky strike should do their 'little special one' in every 1000 packs or whatever :P

Cannabis should be legalized to an extent like ciggarettes are atm but the legal age should be 18 and must supply ID etc, not the dodgy resin,muddy shit because thats plain nasty.

Who likes the idea of packs of 3 cones/spliffs pre-rolled sold in shops that sell ciggarette/smoking products?

I think it sounds cool :D

I don't really, my mates don't like me doing it, so I just don't, the last time I got completely wrecked I got with a girl that my best mate like loved...

I didn't know they did a 'special one'...

I agree that the age limit should be 18, its not as bad as alcohol. Alcohol is legal and has the age-limit of 18, therefore, why not legalise marijuana??? I agree not to sell draw ;)... I think the spliff-selling Idea is great lol...

You can not in anyway control your children/family from such a thing, it will be constantly there, if we could, then people wouldn't be doing it constantly would they???

tbh, i believe that if you contrain children, they will just try and rebel even more. I do it, and most children do it, you are best to just try and limit them, and educate them.

See things from there point of view and make compromises.

Thats a valid point, they think themselves as 'hard', a bit like our public MC... lol... They will always try and obtain it somehow, and if they do, they will think that its easier and easier... every child does it, regardless of what it is... unless you keep him/her locked indoors or whatever...

It's worse to say to a child "don't do it" than "you shouldn't because...". A prohibition tempts to be disobeyed, while a rational explaination makes more sense. That's not only for kids, but also vor most adults.

It would give much money to the state, tbh.

btw, I don't really like the spliffs idea, but it could be a good extra-bussiness to the tobacco manufacturers, now they're slowly losing customers.

like i said, cannabis is so cheap to import nowadays along with high risks, that the profit margins are something like 2000%. By legalising drugs, profit margins will be lower, and so the tax will not be as much.

And also tobacco has a different tax rate to normal goods, so will cannabis
