Should dope be legalised?
I am not left wing nor am I a hippie. But I do think dope should be legalised and regulated.
It has been proven time after time that dope is actually more healthy than smokes. What do you think. |

I don't use it, but I agree it should be legalized. It would reduce crime by probably 80%, and eliminate the dangerous cartels and gangs.

I've never understood why dope was made illegal in the first place. If it was legalised and regulated, the criminals would no longer be able to dominate the market and the government would be able to dictate how much dope would be available and what type of dope would be available for the general public.

I heard that it was made illegal because the Bayer company viewed it as a cheap alternative to aspirin for minor pain relief and they had the money to bribe congress to eliminate competition. But I heard this from a pothead, so it may or may not be true.

I really want to know what the people on the right wing side of politics think about the legalisation of dope. People think that right wingers are anti dope and anti this and that.
People think that some issues and beliefs belong to the lefties which isn't true. You can be a conservative and believe in that women should have choices, that certain drugs should be legalised, that people's sexual habits should be left up to them etc etc etc. I love babies but why can't women have the choice to have an abortion? Can't we be both pro life and pro choice? I support contraception and I support porn being available. What is wrong with pornography and masturbation? We should take back right wing politics from the Christians and the uber religious freaks. Its time to fight back. |

Cannibis was effectively demonized in this country by a cabal of industrialist such as William Randolph Hearst, DuPont, BigOil, BigGov, etc. In order to cripple and eliminate the long established hemp industry, the biggest cash crop in the country at the time and a boon to family farmers, in favor of increased production and sales of paper made from wood pulp (Hearst owned vast tracts of timberlands.) along with dozens of chemical/synthetic applications using plastics and nylon.

When we talk about making 'dope' legal, what are we talking about?
Should all substances now illegal be legalized and sold at every convenience store in the country? For those who say yes, I don't think they've seen the damages they can do. Cannabis though may be a different matter, but even that, with the potency now attained by some growers and some strains of it is not something a person who's never smoked it before should be able to walk in a buy, thinking they'll make some Alice B. Toklas brownies. They'd be likely to wind up in an emergency room, so potent and consciousness altering it is. I favor the medical model, and it may be that many are suffering from illness unnecessarily. For instance, I'm looking for cancer cures. So far the invitro and animal studies on cannabis show great promise. But like many things, our corrupted government is saying, "Cannabis is not a medicine". Take a look at this: http://cancerres.aacrjournals.org/co...6/13/6615.full There's a TON of other things we already know cannabis either helps with or cures. |

Informed choice
People considering using cannabis should be aware of recent studies which show an increased risk of developing schizophrenia, especially in the developing teenage brain.
The human lung was not designed to process smoke of any kind and smoking will contribute to lung and heart disease. That said, if people want to rake these risks then it is not for governments to punish them so severely. |

This is all true. Many waste years smoking cannabis, and then one day learn to make cannabis butter or ghee, and realize what they've been missing all that time. Smoking cannabis, so I understand, even with a vaporizer one only gets around 7% of the CB1's in any given amount used. The CB1's create the mental effects, but by eating it, one gets the full amount of the THC and CB1's it has. By eating it, it also lasts longer as it transits the whole body, and is absorbed more fully. Some find it effective as a Mood stabilizer with far less negative side effects than commonly prescribed prescription drugs for the same effects. But if one is using it, or considering using it (Where it is legal to do so) they should keep in close contact with others who are experienced in it's use, and also with their medical and psychological associates or caregivers. That there are a wide variety of reactions to cannabis. It is a drug, a powerful drug, it is a medication. That is why I support the medical model of cannabis use, so that there are outside professional people monitoring one's over all health and mental functioning. So I understand, or have read, Darius, the issue with increased levels of schizophrenia if used before the brain is fully developed in ones 20's may be related to the developing brain, or perhaps more young who are prone to schizophrenics are drawn to self medication. Which comes first in that case? The schizophrenia, or the cannabis? Is there really any real relation between the two, or are we creating a statistical illusion which we then attempt to make medical dogma? |

I'd agree that smoking is less likely to create extreme effects. |

Certainly wouldn't surprise me if something like that were a contributing influence to a law change. From 1850 to 1950 there were pretty big temperance movements, often led by females, aiming to stamp out drugs, drink, prostitution. Anglo culture has been warped by insane hypocritical zealots pretty much from day one, it is what makes their culture both dangerous and inferior. The curse of the US is it was set in this mold. If it's Anglo, Christian or jewish, it's BAD FOR WHITES.

Pot should be decriminalized for personal use not regulated through dispensaries, drugs like meth or other chemicals should be illegal.

Uber-Aryan Varg Vikernes states total legalization would be good and, more importantly, would work on a eugenic level!!!
Alot of the druggies would go off on benders and over-dose themselves or get into car crashes and end their horrid dysgenic existence and this short period of mayhem after total legalization would then eventually lead to a more eugenic society as the dregs and thralls are removed!!! Quote:

IMO A Nation has no use random drug use, but a sad un-happy self hating regime ?
See the first commercial shown here, this is from 1958.
