Cannabis related video needed

nutman, your anecdote only shows to me that legalising soft drugs is a good idea - basically all my (Dutch) friends (and me) have smoked weed to some extent, one or two excluded, and none of them turned to shit. zero.

Ok - fine.
I just heard some bad stories.
But I suppose it depends on who you are and what your friends are like. Nothing can control it and make it a 100% success story. Better to legalize it, I guess, and at least have SOME control over it.

sorry my bad: legalegalización!!
That's something to put on your CV!
just don't forget that smoke kills!
you hippies
Nutman: if that's just 'being british', the whole country would be destroyed every saturday night ;D
Skrebbel: I think it depends on how much you smoke, and for how long, and like cigarettes + cancer it's not guaranteed but just increases the risk hugely. From the reasonably large group of people I know who smoked weed, only a couple have any real problems, and they're the two who smoked a lot of it very regularly for a long period of time. Everyone else smoked it less often, or gave up after a while. I guess most drugs are pretty harmless until you start overdoing it.
I reckon the 'cannabis leads to hard drugs' thing is partly true too, but it's not that smoking a bit of week causes you to take up crack or something. It's more like people who have never smoked weed aren't really likely to decide to start a crack habit, but people who do smoke it are the ones who will try a little extra step with an E on the weekend or something, then perhaps take another step, and another etc. At least that's what I've seen over the years.
One guy I knew ended up on heroin because he tried it 'once only' as an experiment. He didn't take it again for over a year, then decided to try again 'as a treat'. Then he decided it was good, so he'd do it just once a month, so he didn't get addicted, and it built up from there until he got put in jail for 7 years for armed robbery :/

Yeah, you hear the sad stories all the time, but I guess the good ones are being left out. Come on, sceners - give us your GOOD drug experiments! ;)
psonice: i apologize because i did laugh at the end of your story :D
a proper drugs policy will lead to:

In the Netherlands 9.7% of young boys consume soft drugs once a month, comparable to the level in Italy (10.9%) and Germany (9.9%) and less than in the UK (15.8%) and Spain (16.4%) , but much higher than in, for example, Sweden (3%), Finland or Greece. Dutch rates of drug use are lower than U.S. rates in every category. The monthly prevalence of drugs other than cannabis among young people (15-24) was 4% in 2004, that was above the average (3%) of 15 compared countries in EU. However, seemingly few transcends to becoming problem drug users (0.3%), well below the average (0.52%) of the same compared countries.
:P
interesting statistics, maali. what's the source?
Nutman: head to for example www.erowid.org if you want to hear those.

France is the best or worst country in Europe : the more illegal the stuff is the more people want it ._.
imho legalization and taxes (hehe) should be the future.

zest: like a lot of the best comedy, it's funny and sad at the same time.
I played too much street fighter at arcades when I was young...
winners don't use drugs... they make or sell them!
Real man brew their own weed.
To be fair, the real gateway drug is alcohol.
Or... if you're into scuba diving: nitrogen!

Just look at Switzerland there in the middle, all neutral, holy and better than the rest - I don't understand why I don't hate those pope-protecting assholes.percentage of population who has already consumed cannabis :
But then again: a doobie or 2 might reveal that mystery to me!
switzerland should be invaded and annexed to Europa, so that they give hitler's gold back and enter european stat charts!
