my opinion is very young people should not touch anything until they are mature enough to know and understand what they are doing. i believe dope affects young people health because there are so many of them that have some form of mental illness. I know some of them experiment with other drugs too but i do know of some young people being affected only because they were regular smokers.

Hi all Aussie cannabis lovers, Well I haven't started a thread yet, and I hadn't seen this topic specifically listed so.... tell me all the reasons you think cannabis is illegal. From health/policitical/manufacturing/conspiracy angles. All is good. Let me get the list started: - government really cares about our health and thinks that it is another harmful substance that it needs to protect us from (I know this is BS propoganda -> but get the bad out of the road first); - cannabis as a plant cannot be patented and having a multitude of medical uses (which have been largely suppressed) poses a threat to pharmeceutical industries. Why? - grow your medicine in the b…

BUYING cannabis in the Dutch city of Maastricht will soon mean having your fingerprints taken, your face scanned and your biometric data recorded. All 15 coffee shops in the southern city are spending about €100,000 ($159,000) installing a security system that makes it harder for an under-age cannabis smoker to enter than a terrorist to set foot in Europe, according to Marc Josemans, head of the local coffee shop union. “We are ashamed for this attack on your privacy”, reads an explanatory leaflet about the system, which is due to start in September. The coffee shops face a continual struggle to prove they are not selling to people under the age of 18, or more than fi…

New frontier for medical cannabis -- topical pot Anti-inflammatory traits helped heal skin of mice in study by Kavita Mishra, San Francisco Chronicle June 9th, 2007 Skin allergies may be the next reason to use marijuana -- a topical form, at least. Scientists have long suspected that marijuana, used for recreational purposes and to help fight chronic pain, nausea and even some mental disorders like anxiety and depression, also had anti-inflammatory effects in the body. Now they think they know why. In a study published in the current issue of the journal Science, researchers show exactly how they think that works, elucidating how the body's own cannabinoids, c…

High has anyone had the experience that if you have a quantity of smoke, so called friends seem to come around regularly hoping for a cone but they rarely seem to offer you a smoke from their own stash. It pays not to be generous doesn't it ??

By James Vicini WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A passenger in a car pulled over for a traffic violation can challenge the stop for violating the constitutional protection against unreasonable searches and seizures, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled unanimously on Monday. The justices held that the California Supreme Court was wrong in ruling that any constitutional violations when a police officer illegally stops a vehicle may be challenged only by the driver. The high court's opinion written by Justice David Souter said the passenger in such cases can be considered "seized," basically unable to leave the scene when the police make the traffic stop, and can also challenge the st…

A new research and education centre targeting cannabis is expected to be up and running by the end of this year. The Federal Government has announced the $12 million centre will be run by the National Drug and Alcohol Research Centre, based at the University of New South Wales. Federal Minister Christopher Pyne says the centre will provide information to young people in particular about the dangers of the drug. "Cannabis is still a very important part of the drug scene and is the most used drug in Australia still, so we don't want to in our attempt to fight ice and ecstasy and other synthetic drugs take our eye off the ball of fighting cannabis," he said.

Dr. Tod H. Mikuriya, a California psychiatrist who was widely regarded as the grandfather of the medical marijuana movement in the United States, died on May 20 at his home in Berkeley. He was 73. The cause was complications of cancer, his family told California news organizations. Dr. Mikuriya, who helped make the use of marijuana for medicinal purposes legal in California, spent the last four decades publicly advocating its use, researching its effects and publishing articles on the subject. He was an architect of Proposition 215, the state ballot measure that in 1996 made it legal for California doctors to recommend marijuana for seriously ill patients. He was al…

I wrote this originally on Sunday but didn't have time to put it on line until today.... Ali xx So here is a neat one for you guys... Gary and I decide to take a friend out to the the Horse Races and try our luck as we hadn't been for years. What better way to spend a rainy Sunday evening we thought? Besides even though it was raining, my face wasn`t really bothering me much. What I`m smoking seems to be helping wonderfully... So we get to the Race Track/Casino and it's busy as usual. My girlfriend hadn't been to see Horse Racing so she was VERY excited to say the least.... Inside we go to the Race Track and see that we had ten minute…

THC eases allergic reactions A FOLK remedy has been resurrected by scientists who found active ingredients in cannabis reduced allergic reactions. The research, conducted on mice, points the way towards cannabis-based treatments for irritated skin. Extracts from the hemp plant were traditionally used to treat inflammation and could be bought from chemists in the early part of the 20th century. But fears about the intoxicating effects of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the chemical that causes the cannabis high, led to a ban on sales in the 1930s. The new research suggests the herbalists who used cannabis ointments to treat eczema knew what they were doing. Sci…

It seems like every day there's a study relating to narcotic prohibition. Unfortunately the abundance of new information has us neglecting the past.Sometimes I think, when and how did prohibition start?What was the catalyst? Most of us can't even remember what we had for lunch two days ago, me especially with the MS, so I gave myself a little history lesson. It's good, as they say, those who don't remember history are doomed to repeat it. Interestingly six weeks after the Harrison Narcotic Act (1914) was passed the first anti-prohibition editorial appeared in the New York Medical Journal, May 15, 1914. "As was expected … the immediate effects of the Harrison anti-…
