I have read that 1 of the main reasons successive governments in this country (England) have not brought in any sort of legalisation/tolerance law is to do with apathy and lethargy.They seem scared that as a nation we will all just throw the towel in ,not bother goin to work and sit about smokin reefer all day( which incidently sounds good to me) but let's face it this is bull*"it. Most people on these boards sound reasonably clued up about things and realise that unless you grow yer own you have to purchase what is gm for gm a very expensive product so regular income of some sort is an absolute must, basically a job! We should lobby for a tolerance law, Dutch style allowing us to smoke at home or designated places which the last time i heard also allowed for small amounts of home cultivation( single person occupancy up to 3 plants ,over 1 person up to 5 plants) though no mention was made of the actual size of plants that could be grown so by rights you should be able to grow one the size of a f"*#in giant redwood lol. One sad casualty of this reform would be the dealers, sorry guys! but this as got to be the way forward for Joe stoner unless we're gonna be skulking around in the shadows for the next 20yrs. It as to be said that since it's re-classification to class C nobody seems to even see it as an offence anymore. Incidently i grow my own and work mon- fri in a warehouse(real no brainer)

I supose it's a common mis-conception, alot of people actually think it is legal.

No I think it is actually legal, you can possess up to 5 grams and you are allowed to grow 5 plants at a time. I had this discussion with someone down me local the other day and he was adamant that it is actually legal. I don't know though I hear different things. All that matters though is I have some to smoke. At the moment though that doesn't really matter as I have a frikknig cold anyway so i'm not enjoying it.

yes some people do support their whole family from selling but if they werent in somuch shit with the law from selling before (if they were caught) then they wouldnt have to worry about getting a good job... just a diff way to look at it

if cannabis were legal i would still grow it ... why? its a BEAUTIFUL plant, its smells nice, for the experience for growing and raising my own pot plant and smoking the home grown and home grown of anything is always more rewarding than buying it... i grew tomatoes once and they were so much bettter to eat and the fealing and pride of growing your own. Nothing beats the home grown  plus why would any one want to grow tabacco? tabacco kills tons of ppl every day and IMO is an ugly plant which gives off an ugly nasty thing to smoke... why would any one want to grow that? i also heard tabacco is failry hard to grow.... maybe that may explain why no one does hydophonic gardens of tabacco..................

The first two I agree with,but the second I don't,here's why. Hemp Economics As you can see the profit potential is over $500 billion a year! So there IS profit to be made from hemp! Exxon and Texaco generated what,$38 billion?  WHAT A LAUGH! We could pay off our national debt in less tan 20 years with hemp!

Ever see the show 'Weeds'? Good stuff.
It should DEFINITELY be decriminalized, but legalization could put a lot of nice people out of business.

short answer.yes.but if it was i believe it would still be illegal to grow your own...(look at beer)so you would be stuck buying off the gov.and that would suck.So the long answer is that it should be legalized the correct way or not at all.I would rather have good illegal smoke than shitty legal.

Who ever asked about the tax and how much, i would assume it'd be the same as ciggies.
But i'd grow my own, like i do now, on a much bigger scale.
They wouldnt be able to make the bud legal, but the plants illegal, it'd never work - it's obvious that approch wouldnt work.

moonshining is still illegal.why?because it is stronger than whisky and the gov. isn't making any money off it.growing your own will not be legal until the gov.does that "180"(good luck on that happening)

Well, i've got more chance of that happening over here in the UK than you folks in US. Damn, your laws really are jokes.
If it was legal it'd be legal to grow too - at least in England.
Heck, your government keeps SEEDS illegal, now if that isnt a joke i dont know what is.

It's the laws alone that make me not dislike the US, but i'd definatly not want to visit. It's just SO over the top for no reason at all. And the laws are so contradictory. But seeds? That's were i draw the line. It's a damn seed, with nothing in it to obtain any form of high from.
America is a nice place, with some of the harshest and worthless laws on earth. It's a shame.
But one day it'll be legal everywhere, i just hope to fuck it's in our lifetime.

i too think that it will ba legal one day but unfortunatly i don't see it happening until we have a big world changing event like running out of oil(etc.)and the capitalists realize us stoners may have been right all along.Sadly i think we still have a few generations before that happens.
here is hoping that i am wrong(though i never have been before,mistaken once  )

Yeah, but they have no proof anyone would use them, they might keep them for ornaments, and because theres no THC or any other phycoactive chemicals in the seeds, theres no reason for them to be illegal. I think America is one of the very few that keep them illegal.
Anyway, that'll all change when the right people get in power, in America and England.
