A while ago 5th Gear did a comparison on their test track - one driver had too much to drink, while the other had a couple of spliffs...
The drunk drove too fast, cut corners, missed stop lines, etc. etc. The guy on cannabis drove like a pensioner - bit too slow, ultra careful, super
safe.
I know which I'd prefer to meet on the road...

DONT DO DRUGS
Never liked pot at all, didn't stop me from taking loads of speed as a youth though, because my main gateway drug was Tennants Extra or Holsten
Pils (showing my age now). I'd tried Coke, resin, grass, hash oil, 'shrooms, speed and acid before I became an addict to anything I found
hard to stop, and that was Regal King Size. Government wins.
Legalise all drugs I say, at least then we can control the quality, price and hell, even tax them then. Driving anything underground has never worker
before, but acceptance has, I'm not saying sell it in corner shops, but why not not take the control out of the criminal's hands? Most
heroin deaths go down as overdose, but most are killed by either poo gear or getting some that's too pure, having control of the quality that
is on the streets would prevent most heroin deaths.
Rip Clag, not my brother in name, but definately in deed.

How many of these pot smoking class A users that you know Deltron, started by having a drink or a fag? I'd been a user of speed and mushrooms
quite happily before I became a tobacco addict, took me the day after to give up my class A drugs, but I smoked for nearly 15 years before I kicked
that one.
As for alcohol, always remember to take the glass to the bottle, never take the bottle with you.
DO NOT PUT ON KNOB OR BOLLOCKS!

I say legalize weed too, I don't do it anymore as just made me sleep or eat mars bars like a complete moron. So what if it mashes folks brains,
at least they don't become violent unlike booze.
As for other drugs I dunno as only tried speed the once and beggar me never again I hardly had a face left ....
Nutters should be made to inhale weed 247 to calm them down

evidence and carry on smoking it's their choice, it's a free country after all.
Not such a great plan when we all pay for the NHS.

Well, smokers, drivers and easy targets pay for the NHS... But that's a different rant

Just a bit of research facts for you - it's the new hybridised strains of skunk that are causing all the psychological problems due to the
imbalance of the active ingredients THC and CBD. Outdoor grown weed and hash have these two chemicals in balance and very few long term problems have
been shown with regular use of this type of cannabis - certainly far less than other intoxicants us humans seem to like.
Skunk on the other hand, grown under artificial lighting is pushed to produce as much THC as possible, but in doing so almost no CBD is produced
leading to an imbalance. It is the use of skunk, especially amongst younger smokers that can lead to pyschological problems - shown now by extensive
research.
In a recent BBC doc about cannabis they went into this at length and actually showed the difference when a regular smoker tried both and did a
psychological test after each type (with time in between). After the skunk the person thought she had a 'special' connnection with her
boyfriend and thought she could communicate telepathically with him, she also got paranoid which she didn't on the regualr stuff.
So if you're gonna smoke people, stick the the nice natural stuff and leave that super strong skunk to the crazy kids......
If you're not living life on the edge you're taking up too much room.
