http://www.ukcia.org/research/dac.htm Drug Advisory Council Report REPORTS HIGHLIGHTS REPORT OVERVIEW Victorians are justifiably concerned about widespread misuse of drugs in our community. Experimentation among young people is widespread. Use of drugs such as cannabis and amphetamines is high by international standards, despite prohibitionist laws and a strong commitment to law enforcement. Concerns have become apparent about increasing adolescent initiation into heroin, the shift from oral to intravenous administration of amphetamines and the use of derivatives of this group such as Ecstasy. Use of multiple drugs is common and the same criminal source may offer a va…

One of the Government's favourite slogans (started with the reagan administration in the US many years ago, and continued even though it doesn't work) here is our take on it.......... Before we start getting into the delusion of "Just say NO"/"Just say YES" to drugs and drug cultures of choice, we must finally start to begin saying NO to things that really matter when it comes to this debate/ war of one collective of drug lords and drug cultures (buzzword 'licit') against another collective of drug lords and drug cultures, never mind the massive collection of innocents/ people who respect their choice and do not deserve to be persecuted for that choice. We must truly st…

Murder your lovely new bride? 12 months jail, less time served, of course. The prosecutor even only sought 5 years with an 18-month non-parole period. Grow dope in NSW with hydroponics? 20 YEARS. WTF. I'm thinking of taking up being a hitman.

Wasn't sure where to post this, I know I've mentioned what I was intending to do here somewhere in the dim dark past . . . but anyway . . . I've been busy [and still am] Pollie Bothering . . . I've started at the top [KRudd] and am working my way down through as many Pollies email contacts I can find with the following 10,000 character limited spiel [you can only send 10,000 characters in an email to the PM . . . ] Subject: Medical Marijuana Comment: Firstly, about me - I am a middle-aged mother of three well adjusted, healthy, happy young Australians, two of whom employed and voters! I'm about as 'normal' as you get, except for my debilitating diseases. I worked ful…

Hey guys I have had some ideas rolling around in my head for a while on how to turn the marijuana users image around. Keep in mind I haven't smoked in about 3 weeks, so the paranoia is really starting to take ahold ... Look to the homosexual community! If any group has shown how to turn the tide of opinion it has to be the "Gays". Check it, they took a title for them selves that everyone can use "gay", they found a title for "straights". Richard Dawkins advocates this method in The God Delusion for making Atheism more palatable. "Brights" is the word being pushed in that example. My suggestion is "Highs", but only for lack of anyone to really get feedback from. I also…

Hey guys, Lately I have been thinking about starting a grow and finding out as much as I can about it. Being named a dealer by the law and prosecuted as one if caught would have to be the scariest part of it all. I was wondering if you documented your grow and usage would that stand up in court? I do understand it would only be your word but for someone with no prior convictions or any of that stuff would it fly? Cheers Fortune

Don't know if a thread has been started on this but what would be the safest number of plants to have if busted? other than none. All states are different, so I guess a state to state guess would be good. All depends on previous stuff ups I know, lmfao while roflol but since I seen the light (600watt) and corrected the error of my ways (Different seeds) what would be the lucky number to keep you out of jail????

I was just thinking.... A lot of people come on here asking what happened to them when they have a panic attack from smoking weed. This is most likely caused by smoking too much or too strong of a strain or smoking Sativa type Cannabis. Do you think you could sue the Government for causing psychological harm? Maybe lightning and littlbit could use this in their case even? I mean the government isn't allowing us access to quality controlled Cannabis and different strains suited to different people so we have to take our chances medicating with street weed. Whaddaya think?

Hey guys. This may be a good opportunity to talk with the Chief Commissioner. http://www.vicpolicenews.com.au/online-chat.html I dunno when the next one is yet. But we could all join the chat room and ask stuff like "You said you support harm minimisation or legalising any drug if there is evidence to support that it causes less harm. How do you feel about the study in Portugal where all drugs were decriminalised and this led to less crime in relation to drugs, less deaths from drugs and lower costs to drug users?" Or something to that effect. Also they have a reader comments section. http://www.vicpolicenews.com.au/readercomments.html We could inadvertently get th…

Hi, My name is Louis and Im an American that moved out here to Sydney a couple of years ago. Compared to back home, I feel like Australia (even Sydney and NSW where I live) have pretty reasonable cannabis law. Let me scratch that, the law is still pretty invasive, but it seems that enforcement for the average citizen is pretty lax. I mean, you can barely walk around without the sweet smell of a joint hitting your noise as it leaks from someone's house. However, it is still necessary that we look to make real progress with this issue. Ive wondered for years how the hell there hasnt been any progress on the medicinal front here even though there was a "commission" assigned …

Has anyone paid attention, to some things that are happening, that shows our pollie bothering is working. We now have Harm minumisation drug ads. Now we have cannabis NOT marijuana. There has been no mention of WAR on anything for weeks. Nicola Roxon (dictator) has been on the news, not pushing alco pop tax, but health issues, trying to look like she cares. Now I know these are small things, however they are a step in the right direction, and they tell us they have a drugs council going on now, and will announce the outcome soon. So everyone keep up the good work, don't forget the media and the opposition too. P.S. You should see the pathetic argument we just rec…
