Cannabis Law and Politics

I wanted to post this in a new thread so that it gets attention, (the real thread is like a road sign, people ignore it if they have read it) What happened in 2007 in relation to Cannabis. There would have to be a bit about Mark Emery, surely. He has done a lot to promote our cause, whether you believe he did more damage than good is irrelavent, he still caused a stir and must be included IMO. Can anyone think of anything else that should be included, in the update?? If so please reply. Also, who has the ability to be able to write it so that it fits in with the original writings? AlFish or Al.B.Fuct maybe??

I just found this, while looking on the INCB website.

A good friend and I wish to find a range of weather proof imitation cannabis plants that I can buy and put into pots, These I want to place in my yard, shuffle around, water visible to all, hoping that every busybody who can, reports me to the police, and they waste time and resources investigating all the reports. They keep hassleing me, time I give it back. If I can convince anyone else to help by sticking a fake plant outside PLEASE DO! But mainly I need high quality, all stages of development, imitation cannabis plant supplier, and the net has not been real helpful. Sorry about the edit he wants …

Cannabis and Driving: A Scientific and Rational Review By Paul Armentano Policy debates regarding marijuana law reform invariably beg the question: "How does society address concerns regarding pot use and driving?" The subject is worthy of serious discussion. NORML’s Board of Directors addressed this issue by ratifying a “no driving” clause to the organization’s “Principles of Responsible Cannabis Use”1 stating, “Although cannabis is said by most experts to be safer with motorists than alcohol and many prescription drugs, responsible cannabis consumers never operate motor vehicles in an impaired condition.” Nevertheless, questions remain regarding the degree to…

Before we all get too bothered about roadside drug tests have a look at these figures. There the first two years testing in Vic. 24,413 drivers were tested. 321 tested positive for methamphetamine. 105 for both meth and cannabis. 35 for cannabis alone. 35 from 24213. I believe these figures prove they are only looking for intoxicated drivers. If that isn't the case I presume most of the cannabis produced in OZ is going straight to the rubbish tip. Think about it. Two years figures remember.

This query is about testing for THC in saliva. I have read where around 4 hours after use THC wont be detected in a saliva test. I wonder how much truth is in this statement? If the genuine aim is to detect only impaired drivers then I hope that after 4-6 hours any cannabis user would test negative. If cannabis was smoked say between 10 and 11pm at night is it likely you are safe to drive at 7am the next morning. Any thoughts would be appreciated. BTW I'm in Qld where roadside testing started today; Dec 1. I heard on the news that one in twelve are testing positive in early results. It wasn't stated what they were testing positive to.
