UK Marijuana Users.
Reading "The Times" this morning, and i was upset to see this .
Copied directly word for word:
Cannabis is to be ubgraded to a class B drug, the Home Secretary will say today. Jacqui Smith will defend her decision to overrule official advice by arguing that the Government must take into account the wider implications of cannabis use rather than purely the scientific evidence.
OH NOES BLTC.
What are your opinions on this?
How will this affect you?
I'm off to school now, i expect plenty of replys when i return ;)

Re: UK Marijuana Users.
It still has to pass parliament though, so there's a tiny chance it won't be made law.
Chances are it will though, I just hope the House of Lords will have enough sense so it doesn't happen. But considering they all bought their peerages from Labour then I doubt it.
But it's ridiculous though, ketamine is class C, proven to cause Olneys Lesions, yet cannabis, with only a very weak causal link to mental illness is back to class B.
I'm going to write a very pissed off letter to Mr Brown and just fill it with swear words because he's an utter cunt.

Re: UK Marijuana Users.
Fun fact: various yanks I've known have actually said english weed is WAY less contaminated than american weed.WTF? Contaminated weed? I've never gotten "contaminated" buds.
I know a few people who say the best bud they've smoked was in Texas. One of my friends who has lived in Cali, Alaska, Mexico, and has traveled to and smoked bud in NYC says the best buds he's had were the ones I got for him, maybe he was just trying to make me feel good. I wouldn't know, though because I've never smoked bud outside of Texas. Its kind of funny because his roommate who had never been out of alaska except for Texas said he had never heard of shwag until he came to Texas. I know I have never had anything that was contaminated, everything I get is high quality buds, unless I want to get some shwag(not likely). One time when I was 15 I got ripped off with some buds that had water dripped on them to weigh them down. I got about a gram and it was 3 on the scale. If I had the choice I would've been like fuck you and told him I wasn't buying that shit, but I made a dumb decision and fronted my friend the money to go with his guy. He came back with that shit and I was pissed. "Dude, it was on the scale what was I supposed to do?".

Because I bet you've come over here and tried it...
Also, it sucks they are reclassifying it. Even the experts Brown had to consult about it said that it shouldn't be reclassified. They even said there is a "PROBABLE, but WEAK, causal link between psychotic illness, including schizophrenia, and cannabis use."
I also read that it's gonna cost shit loads to have it done. Money which could be used for a better cause. I seriously don't think that cannabis use is the biggest problem facing this country at the moment.

Re: UK Marijuana Users.
I think I might give it up whenever I'm back home then. Not worth the effort trying to get it whenever its class C sometimes.

Re: UK Marijuana Users.
I've even heard of "contaminated" weed in America. Couldn't you tell if it is contaminated? And if so why the fuck would you buy it?

Cos their dealers sell it as hydro/whatever stupid names they attach to the best weed and say all the contam is crystals [bitch all you want, but 4 yanks have said this to me, so in their town in America it must be true].
In England though there isn't any of that bullshitting, cos everyone knows it's not crystals and it really is contaminated and dealers dont even try to fool you.
