‘because they do not acknowledge that they have a problem,’That is exactly the attitude and treatment I am talking about, it’s you that have a problem in accepting their choices and the rejection of your ‘principles’. Education is what’s needed, education about sensible use, not puritanical twaddle from those that assume they know best. I have at no point said that cannabis use was safe, I only pointed out that the many studies done on the subject are ignored by those that do not wish to hear both sides of the argument and that is not me.Any drug legal or not has be the potential to be detrimental to the Physical or mental health of the young. The problem is getting that message across without getting your views dismissed because of your own unwillingness to examine the whole issue. This statement would ring true to even the most sceptical; a young person is like a test tube of chemicals bubbling along to it final conclusion anything added to this mix may effect that final conclusion and this includes pressures exerted on the mix.Cannabis is a very big issue, as the plant that underpinned the world’s economy for thousands of years it should be.cannabis can de motivate people but it is the CBN content that courses that effect not the THC content, real Hashish has a higher content of CBN than most weed varieties and what most people in this country smoke is soap bar Hashish and this contains many if not all of the following:Beeswax, turpentine, milk powder, ketamine, Boot polish, henna, pine resin, aspirin, animal turds, ground coffee, Barbituates, glues, dyes plus some known carcinogenic solvents such as toluene and benzene but of course it must be the THC that f**ks people up, not the impurities that only exist due to the illegality of the substance.No right to health care. This is a basic human right and this form of fascist outlook deservers nothing but contempt. Lets withdraw it from the fat, those that became infertile or have caught Aids due to unprotected sex lets make underage girls deal with there own Pregnancy, and as for those that smoke tobacco, leave them to die in agony from their cancer they were told about the dangers and perhaps we can stop wasting money dealing with all of the many problems associated with those that drink. Got problems with your Kidneys, Liver, and sponginess of the brain go on f**k off and die, we told you all about it when you were young.I Have two teenage children they don't take drugs, unless you include the two Vodka breezes that my 15 year old daughter has been allowed during the last year Perhaps if the parents of the children had a proper respectful loving, understanding and supportive relationship with their children, then their children may not get so messed up that they start using drugs. Whether you like it or not children that feel the need to experiment with drugs are already suffering from problems and those problems often stem from the lives they lead, which is usually coursed by their parents and others in authority abusing them in one way or another.As for my vested interest, I guess that why I know so much about the subject but it is odd that I should have one with the amount of Cannabis I have consumed during the last 35 or so years. I should have no motivation whatsoever and should live in a rubber room occurdind to statistics as for the UN Why did the UN spend years trying to bury the World health councils report into cannabis, apart from the fact it would not endorse the reports of cannabis related mental health problems. The answer lies in the pressure groups funded by the prohibition movement of Amirican self intrest in keeping Hemp from fullfilling it's natural role as compitition to petro- chemical based products. Those of you that know anything about history and economics may remember that hemp underpinned most of the world’s economies for thousands of years prior to the turn of the last Century before the commitment to oil and the imposition of the ban on Cannabis in all its many varieties and uses.
