Respiratory illness Marijuana cigarettes have more tar than tobacco, placing cannabis users at an increased risk of respiratory illness such as lung cancer and chronic bronchitis. Cigarette smokers who also smoke cannabis have an even greater risk of respiratory disease. Reduced motivation Many regular users have reported that they have less energy and motivation, so that performance at work or school suffers. Brain function Concentration, memory and the ability to learn can all be reduced by regular cann…

http://www.vicpolicenews.com.au/online-chat.html Mr Overland will be live online to take your questions on policing in Victoria on Wednesday, 17 June from 12.30pm to 1.30pm. We can ask him stuff like "I read that you would support legalising or decriminalising drugs if there was evidence to support that it is safer. I am wondering whether you have read the study on the decriminalisation of all drugs in Portugal, showing that this decreases drug use and deaths from drug use." Be polite, we don't wanna turn him against us.
