A young guy probably enjoying himself prior to being attacked. Not everybody has resigned themselves to being a member of the pipe and slippers brigade

It seems somewhat perverse that what one can do today, without consequence, regarding cannabis use, may shortly have the potential to land one in prison.along with all the other problems one may face with a "drugs" conviction on ones record , despite harming nobody, All due to the personal whims of a politician/ convicted criminal By all means target under age users and those who supply them , as the regulations allow for, just like alcohol. but where is the logic in hunting down and prosecuting everybody else

Well if the last couple of years was to be looked at as an experiment or a trial run,at least socially there appears to have been no issues at all, despite the best efforts of the nay sayers and the ever eager media. If it had not been for 100 years of" reefer madness " and all the negative propaganda which has shaped people's attitudes, discussions like this would not happen. Prior to the legalisation, I personally cannot remember a single incident hitting the headlines where cannabis was mentioned as a contributory factor either, yet there were plenty of people using it even then. Now with the number of users having vastly increased , by up to ten times according to some estimates, there is still , contrary to all the doom and gloom predictions by some people , a distinct lack of evidence or reports of any negative consequences in the news despite the best efforts of the media, In fact the only issue mentioned on here by the anti cannabis brigade is that they "don't like the smell" hardly a valid reason to subject people to what can be severe punishments just for possessing a plant "Whatever it puts them in mind to do" "Alcohol is bad enough" you are suggesting that cannabis is worse in that respect than alcohol, and that is clearly not the case. any assertion that it is, is purely the result of years and years of negative propaganda clouding ones judgement, and not based on any reported instances

see, he's drunk already

The point is ,alcoholics really should not be commenting, There have been no significant problems or social issues, unless you are talking about alcohol of course, which is responsible for violence, traffic accidents every single day , and many long term health issues, and waking up next to ugly women to name just four of the" positives" It is indeed the best way to mess up a country. Just imagine life without it , oh sorry , you can't, at least not without breaking into a cold sweat

You appear to be one of the last reefer madness prohibitionists still trolling on nearly every cannabis thread, all the others have either seen sense or given up. Pity you can't do the same

And what if they asked 13 individuals ? same percentage again ? "(+ or -)" If anybody does not understand how polls work. you are the last person they should be asking

How many were discreetly smoking it before legalisation ? ( millions) How many will be smoking discreetly if it is recriminalized ? (more than before) The genie is well and truly out of the bottle

The smell of alcohol can kill ????

Mental health issues? very vague details of her "partner" and whether he also is intending to apply for a visa? and what visa exactly? And the photo was not even taken here All just a made up story and an attempt to rubbish the uk We, the members of this forum, deserve better than this

food not necessarily required either

Duplicated but whilst i'm here,,,, I don't equate the smell exactly with "rotting trash" there is an element of that , but it puts me more in mind me of the smell released when removing a manhole cover from a live public sewer, especially one of the larger ones.

Can't imagine anybody wanting to wash a plate full of Durian down with a a bottle of Sangsom or a gallon of Chang . Those that do deserve all they get, how could anybody possibly expect that to end well? Its the sort of stunt I'd expect to see on an episode of "Jackass" Call me a traditionalist but I'll stick to Salted Peanuts and Pork Scratchings when on the lash and something hot and spicy afterwards, As for Durian at any other time , personally I can take it or leave it, I certainly cannot see what all the fuss is about and there's plenty of other fruits I'd rather eat

come on tell us what bike it is

they are raised as "mummy's boys" many carry that with them for the rest of their lives

what a load of rubbish, do people actually get paid for producing trash like this? Where does one apply for a job?

unlikely , unless he got somebody else to write the OP for him

so have you made a large investment, based on that assumption?

well we can but hope, my fingers are crossed

as usual a pretty much incomprehensible reply . Designed to divert attention from your original incorrect comment, You said" the police do not seem upset " I said they are not supposed to get" upset" and are" EXPECTED to remain professional" To which you replied , in an attempt to discredit my statement "so whats professional about smiling and holding a sword" ? Obviously nothing professional about that Which is why my previous comment contained the word "expected" Is that so difficult for you to understand ? Maybe I am not so good at this game but I am clearly better at it than you you need to recognise your own failings before attempting to denigrate others. No goalposts were moved as a result of any of my comments,

talk about missing the bus , you are 2 years too late pal

He / HIm or "It"

those were the days

Well I'm not the one who had to refer to an online dictionary in order to define "proactive" its elementary Watson

Handled what? the knife gang ? find them arrest them and bring them before the courts Or were you referring to the grammar pedant arguing the toss about the definition of proactive? in his case I think an official warning would be in order, followed by deportation of course Personally I think a 10pm curfew for under 18's should be the norm
