If they could only make it into a pill form, or better yet, liquify it, there'd be no question about legalizing it.

Default Uh huh...

Well i'v never thought of it that way but why do you think that if they (gov) would not legalize it if it were in the grassy form then theyd legalize it if it was in a liquid or pilll form? And there is already a pill form its called J weed or at least thats what i hear. but it would be intereting to see what it would taste like in the liquid form.

Default IDEA!

They could sell it in cooking oil form with a coupon on the label for brownie mix and a recipe card rubber-banded around the cap

Really, I don't know why the government doesn't legalize it, but I'm betting it has somethng to do with corporatism. Some large corporations (porbably the tobacco, cotton, and paper industries most be lobbying hard to keep it banned. Marijuania hemp has the potential to ruin all three of these businesses. Othere than that, I just can't see the sense in keeping it illegal.

Well i recently found out about this thing called "Salvium" or something like that and it is legal but every one i know who's done it says its way better then pot they said that for like the first 15-20 Min's it feels like your on acid but then after that its exactly like being on pot but you are more giggly. And it is also part of the mint family and can not be identified by any drug test so why is that legal but not pot?

If this were a democracy, they would have to.

Don`t you guys get hash oil?

I think it`s illegal in the UK simply because the government has done such a fine job, over the decades, of pushing their simplification "drugs=crime" into the public conciousness that it cannot now decriminalise without appearing `soft on crime`.

However the illegality of cannabis is increasingly untenable and I expect that decriminalisation of some sort in the next 5 - 10 years, hopefully sooner.

Default Hey Folks

If you're a person that can't figure out why drugs are bad and should be illegal, you're either ignorant, a fool or an outcast. I'm not going to explain it because it's obvious if you think drugs should be legal, you have no class or morals and really couldn't see the harm it would do if it hit you in the ass anyway. No offense intended.

Yeah, I`m a foolish, ignorant outcast

Bet, hey, I can read so why don`t you explain to me, Justinian. Since you`re smart enough to be able to see the reasons I`m sure you`re smart enough to articulate those reasons.

Go on - have a go...but please remember that this thread is concerning marijuana not `drugs` en masse. I know this can confuse even smart people like you which is why I mention it.

Default ...

No. We should keep marijuana illegal.
We should continue wasting a lot of money and jail space by having our police force dedicated to wiping out a drug that is no more dangerous than alcohol and is far less addictive than either alcohol or cigarettes and is less dangerous and less addictive than the OPIATES prescribed for pain on a regular basis that have been known to be stolen, sold on the street, and LEAD TO OPIATE DEPENDENCY (hint: Heroin is cheaper... and heroin and opium actually are a major funding tool for Middle Eastern TERRORISTS!).
We should continue allowing marijuana to be sold in a black market that funds guerillas and street gangs across the Americas rather than being home-grown and regulated (and also kept from being laced with nastier stuff).
We should continue to have marijuana arbitrarily classified in a group with hard drugs rather than with nicotine and alcohol, so that if a kid tries it he figures out that the whole "illegal drug" concept is BS (not understanding that it's only BS for some drugs) and go on to hard drugs (Yes, folks, I'm blaming the "gateway drug" concept on laws).
We should definitely allow our prisons and the courts to be filled with harmless people so that we don't have time or space for rapists, murderers, and other dangerous folks- especially those who find more demand for their "talents" in a black market drug economy.
All of these things are very important... certainly enough to justify yet another way for government to interject into people's lives.
