heard on radio, it's happening.
good/bad?
health risks aren't as bad as other class B's.

Cannibis going to class B
Do you know for sure that is the case? There is a lot of scientific evidence about the psychological effect of cannabis use...
good.
but im anti-drug no matter what class they are.

Does that include Alcohol? Which I think should be classed much higher than cannabis.
Only really been proven that there are psychological effect when it has been in the family previously i think. Alcohol is worse than cannabis, thats all i can say
i barely drink, usually because im always drinking. i think classifying alcohol would cause a huge social effect. social drinking is a big part of our lifestyle, the government would be making a huge mistake classifying it.
I understand why you want it classifying, a guy who works with me was sent to rehab 2 weeks ago for alcohol addiction, and seeing the effects on him is extraordinary. he then signed himself out after 24 hours and wasted the rest of the 3 weeks with his fiancee. But thats another story!

well i've watched a few programs and they've had doctors etc saying to have phsycological damage you need to smoke it day in, day out, obviously each person is different.
as for it being less dangerous than other Class B's thats what medical proffesors had said according to the radio.

but when your addicted are you going to be thinking "i wont have one today because it will send me loopy" or "i need a fix right now!"
its addictive, once youve had it your not going to be able to control yourself to one a week.
personally i've seen the effects of alcohol on families and it ruins them!not sayin cannabis doesnt in any way but if cannabis is classed b then surely alcohol should be somewhere!i think the only reason the government wont do it is because they know there raking in alot of money from alcohol on taxes!class it as a drug make it less available less people buy it therefore they get less tax jus a personal opinion though.guess i'm just fed up of all these taxes lol
i've also heard cannabis isnt actually addictive!?

A&E on a Saturday night would also see a massive drop in the amount of overtime needed aswell.
I haven't seen the figures but I'd be willing to bet that over the course of a weekend the number one cause of violent crime is not Heroin nevermind Cannabis, but alcohol. It's one of the most dangerous harmful drugs around. Yet as a society we see it as okay and Cannabis as something evil.
For the record I don't care what happens with the classification of cannabis. I have no interest in it.
Everything is addictive.
The human mind can become dependant on anything when this happens you have a mental addiction.
It's not a real addiction like heroin or alcohol which is physical it's one of those fake addictions for the feeble minded like gambling.
its crap, it should be unclassed really, as said alcohol is as bad if not worse, and just as addictive, but that shouldnt be classed as anything, its a hard desision to make though... but i think both should just be unclassed, so what happens if police catch it on you now then?

thats a ridiculous statement, you're saying everyone who smokes it will have to smoke it all the time because they're addicted, depends on the person, i sometimes have a smoke with friends once or twice a week, i'm hardley a smackhead.

im not saying alcohol is better than canabis. in fact i think the opposite. im just saying, weve drunk for centuries and is a part of human socialising. trying to classify alcohol and enforce it would be a impossible nightmare.
put it this way, how many people on this forum have met partners/friends from going a quick pint with a mate.
yeah but it says something similar for class c, but they just used to caution you and take it off you, so i wonder what will actually happen....

probably a fine instead of taking it off you on the street for your first offence.
In my day, (Oh no, not him again, someone put him in a home), canabis was nearly as rare as most other drugs. We're talking early to mid '70s here and the whole drugs scene was a lot more innocent. Most local pushers were in the business to provide their own stuff. He would buy an amount of Hash etc., for, say, £20 and sell half of it for £20, thereby getting his for nothing. There were some people who were into the hard stuff like Heroin, but Cocaine
was very much for the pop and rock stars although LSD, uppers and downers were well known on the club scene, especially at All-nighters at Wigan Casino and a few years earlier at the likes of Manchester's Twisted Wheel.
One of the problems now is that Skunk is very often the order of the day which is several times more powerful than the old Lebanese Black that was around in the '70s. While there's no guarantee that smoking weed will lead to hard drug use, the reverse is almost always true in as much as hard drug users almost inavariably start with weed. There is also the psychological aspect, where 1/3 of the inmates in a secure mental unit in Manchester are there to be treated for drug induced psychosis. These people are described as
having carried out acts of "Extreme, irrational and unprovoked violence". The same number of people are in that unit for drug induced psychosis as there are for alcohol and all other induced forms. There are enough problems in this world without adding to them.
