When you look at the carnage on the streets of every town in the country every weekend,I think theres a good case for raisng the legal drinking age to around 25. :y
That should start an argument. ;D

Worked well in the states of the US where you can't drink until 21, and it's vigourously enforced. Teenagers move straight to drugs and skip alcohol entirely.

Youngs are the future of the community and they must never be let on their own decisions about drugs/alcohol..
 
solving this problem is very easy.. collect all those sellers/producers in a square and hang them by the rope and let people watch.. I will see who has the courage after >:(

Where the stakes get higher so does the price, and with it the potential profits. Someone will always be there to chance their arm, and the junkies just have to steal more stuff from innocent people to fund their habit. :-\

I suspect there is no real solution. The genie of drugs is out of the lamp and we can't put it back in. Best hope is to educate people with enough common sense to aviod them. Not going to well currently, then. ::)

Should've said certain drugs really, only caught the arse end of the news, Cannabis was mentioned. I don't think any of the rubbish should be legalised, personally I don't agree with any of it.
Alcohol causes much more damage "pound for pound" to the body than what cannabis does, and that's before we include the people who end up in hospital because some drunken idiot decides to shove a glass in their face.

If cannabis was really that bad, then I doubt for one minute my doctor would have told me to "smoke as much as I can" in the 9 months leading up to my surgery last year.
I personally see no problem with cannabis being legalised for use in the home, and at the current street rates (£20 gets you 1.6 grams) the government could make a killing overnight with the tax.

I doubt any doctor with a modicum of self respect and some basic training would say that. In fact tell me his name and I will be most happy to report him to the general medical council for malpractice.
Stage 4 cancer = chemo & radio that totally destroys your eating & sleep patterns (as well as a whole host of other things).

Cannabis helped to restore my sleep, and it also got me back from a paltry 47KG so the docs had enough meat to work on when the tumours were being removed.

My doctors actual words when I declared I was smoking it while on the chemo were "From an official viewpoint I cannot condone the use of cannabis, however from an unofficial viewpoint it won't do you any harm at all while undergoing treatment so smoke as much as you like if it puts the weight on"

Two years on I'm still alive, pretty much back to my normal weight, and no more mad than what I was before I got the big C.
Now I don't know about you, but if it's a choice of listening to a medical professional or listening to some prick in parliament that has no medical qualifications then I know who I'm taking notice of.

Maybe with some mild drugs. With the more addictive, which tend to lead to a reliance on crime, I wonder if there's that much elasticity in the price? If you can't exist without it, you will find the money somewhere.

Probably based on the fact of less nickings for dealing cannabis as it is so easy to cultivate at home.
