Let's be sure what we're talkin about here guys...... Marijuana or Cannabis! NOT the same thing at all at all!!

Marijuana is extremely rare here (UK); Cannabis, on the other hand, is available virtually anywhere. It's now "almost" legal too, inasmuch as small amounts "for personal use" will hardly merit a caution, never mind arrest!

There is a large movement to legalise it comletely..... but I'm here to tell you, guys & gals, it IS addictive (physically AND psychologically) as well as contributing to a significant percentage of people presenting to the Health Services with Psychotic illnesses. (Last stats available, from 2 years ago, suggested 12-15% of ALL psychotic disorders were linked with heavy Cannabis use.)

I'm not on a soapbox here..... I indulge in it myself now & again!!... all I'm saying is, it's NOT as safe as many people think!

Also have to agree with Lixy though; generally speaking there is less damage done by cannabis vs alcohol.... both physically & socially!! You pays your money, you takes your choice I guess!
