Some cannabis with your tea? von Jenny Wiggins Put that in your pipe and smoke it: A health beverage containing the plant is the latest in a string of new "functional drinks" to find a receptive market. Rituals associated with drinking tea are typically rituals of relaxation. In Britain, workers will take a break for a "mornin' cuppa". In India they will stop by the roadside to pick up a cup of chai. So when a group of entrepreneurs bought the rights to sell a drink made with tea and cannabis in the UK, it could have been the perfect opportunity for marketing a product guaranteed to make consumers zone out. Instead, C-Ice is concentrating on what it claims are its hea…

Hey Peeps...Im not sure if someone has posted this or not but it is now law in SA that NO plants can be grown anywhere..no outside and no inside. The 1 plant law is gone gone gone. Everyone goes to court over any MJ plants and you have to PROVE you bought nothing with supposed mj gains... So best advice is..rent a house...dont grow in one you own..dont drive a flashy car unless you can show you paid for it from a job...make sure you have a job! and of course tell no-one about the mj SA sucks and is run by right wing religious nazis This state can go fuck itself Jack Herer anyone?

I think that until they know how many of these people affecxted also used ...say, speed, lsd, opiates,etc etc ... as well as or instead of cannabis they should have their tounges cut out (yes, i went there!) for blaming cannabis .. FFS ... comparing Wales to London or the Dam ... stupid shit Simon Kearney ..

Source: ABC News The New South Wales Government is being accused of moving too slowly in allowing some people to legally use cannabis for therapeutic relief. Patients with chronic pain from cancer, HIV/AIDS and other illnesses came to NSW Parliament, calling on the Government to legalise cannabis for the use of pain relief. Premier Bob Carr has supported the idea of a trial of cannabis for medical purposes. One of the patients, Ron, says politicians are happy to talk in favour of the plan but keep failing to implement it. He says patients with severe pain who use cannabis do not want to feel like criminals. "When is somebody going to do something?" he asked. "…

One of the main reasons for the prohibition of marijuana, given that it seems these days that people can do it a good deal of the time in the privacy of their own home, is to make it socially unacceptable in the general community. The present level of the law enforcement on this matter results in it's relative acceptance for home use: mainly because the prisons aren't big enough to imprison all of the users, but it is not acceptable for public use or even intoxication (even if the drug was consumed at home). The design of all this is to make being under it's influence in public socially unacceptable. Hence: it is "bad" to drive while stoned on cannabis. This is rega…

If everyone on this site was interviewed as representatives of the stoner community, what impression would we give? Would getting to know the people behind the screen names encourage an argument for law reform or would it only confirm that marijuana destroys lives and stoners are a waste of space. If you don't think your life is a positive example for cannabis law reform then maybe you should do something about it. For yourself if nothing else. If your life isn't a good example to others, how happy can you be with it yourself?
