Hi I've been looking around for the penalties for growing or possessing in NSW and found this ,,, New South Wales Supply and cultivation: $500,000 fine or up to 20 years' prison Use/possession: $2000 fine or up to 2 years' prison Police enforcement policy NSW police guidelines recommends caution to people in possession of 15g or less of cannabis, or who are using cannabis. Max number of cautions: 2 This explains any shortage in NSW ,,since this came into effect nothing is consistent in Sydney and probably over most the state ..........

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.

Hi, I've been smoking the stuff for 26 years, I'm an artist, sure I could draw before as well, but I have to admit that after this long, I am addicted. I draw pictures, make and invent things that most people are amazed by. In the small-ish community I live in, I've become very useful, well liked and relied upon. I've just lived through the most frustrating week of my life (and believe me I've been through some stuff), smoking calms my nerves and switches off the daily dramas so that I can make what I'm doing work. I've never been involved in an accident, have evaded heaps that weren't my fault except one, and what can you do when you're waiting at the stop sign and the…

Here is a proforma that will hopefully be hitting some circles in the medical community in the coming months. Take a copy, change/add to it if you want, and hit up your Doc and see what they say.

2007 national labor platform and constitution http://www.alp.org.au/download/2007_national_platform.pdf Chapter 12 is the one that we would be interested in, which can be found on this page http://www.alp.org.au/platform/chapter_12.php Here are my thoughts on a few of them. <1> Labor believes that a fundamental objective of government is to work with the community to provide greater security for all Australians and their families. To achieve this, the objectives of the criminal law should be to: * prevent crime; * protect the personal safety and property of all Australians; ---------- OK, decriminalize drugs and regulate them and give proper supp…

Hey M8's, I've been looking at this guy over the last few days and I think I want to marry him. OK he's a U.S. guy and all that but he's in the running for the top job in next years election. Here's his policy on drugs: http://www.ontheissues.org/TX/Ron_Paul_Drugs.htm Also, there's tons of GREAT clips on you tube featuring this guy and despite the fact that he's going against the corrupt politics of the U.S. he's gaining a LOT of popularity, check him out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GX-bPyPBlY I wonder how a party based on those principles would go here? Popularity-wise I mean.

www.ldp.org.au The liberty and democracy party is the only libertarian party for the federal election. They believe in small government and individual liberty. Their entire philosophy can be summed up like so: Give people freedom and let them live their own lives and they'll be happy. The role of government should be to stop others from interfering with your life, liberty and property, and make sure you don't interfere with their rights.

I wish I could find a link to it; hopefully someone will put it up on Youtube. Is this just a NSW crock of poop or federal? I missed most of it, but the general gist was showing the purported negative effects of marijuana on teenagers. Ah just talked to my housemates who have told me most of the scenes in the ad. 1/ Can't remember the first one but the 2nd is a girl driving who fails to see a pedestrian and knocks them over. MISINFORMATION!1one!! I don't need to tell you guys, but stoned drivers drive more safely than straight people (will grab link to research if need be). 2/ The next shows a man in a mental health ward. MISINFORMATION!1one!! Marijuana does …

Just read this and although the writer isn't very accurate with a number of growing references he makes, it's worth a read and it is a glimpse at the world of weed in 1995. Take me there... Jimbo

copyright 2003 George Grass rev. 2004 SEEDLESS MARIJUANA The hoax I think there was and is a scheme to weaken the potency of drug-type marijuna with the help of decoys who would spread misinformation about cultivation, flowering, THC, and even the botany of marijuana. My assertion that the potency of indoor seedless marijuana and clones has more of a placebo effect than the real thing flies in the face of the propaganda put out by the Narcs that this marijuana is more powerful and psychoactive than any other marijuana grown in the World. The gap between reality and propaganda is thought to have begun in the latter half of the 1970's when the Narcs decided someth…

Source: www.news.com.au sounds like the politicians are trying to make the greens look bad because they'll have the balance of power in the senate which will make them able to stop any bullshit laws from getting passed one can only hope that the greens prevail, end up with the balance of power and in turn decriminalize marijuana
