  Some interesting points have been raised. And I agree with some of them. I would actually like to see a government with the balls to experiment with effects of legalising some drugs. It would be interesting to see how it would benefit our communities (ie a reduction in crime etc).
  But the point I would make is that cannabis is currently illegal. We dont get to pick and choose the laws we obey. Paedophiles think the Protection of Children Act is a sham, burglars think the Theft Act is a waste of time etc. So I think the police have done their job of enforcing the law.
  And Focusonpeace - quite clearly the word druggie is commonly used to refer to people who take illegal drugs and not someone who drinks coffee and Stella Artois so I think your argument fell a little short on that one.

  Well legal druggie then lol. I dont think you can make an argument about Paedophiles you cant compare that to someone using cannabis. I know there both crimes but thats where the similarities end. Using cannabis is victimless, paedophilia is far from victimless and ruins the lives of children and their families. so I think your argument fell a little short on that one. One is a sub human disgusting crime, one is someone using a plant known to be safer than alcohol and tobacco. Yes its against the law, but its an unjust law which does nothing to reduce the drug use itself. The law isnt always there to protect us. Remember segregation?"
