If someone new was to come along and you tried to explain Supras to them, what would you say?

Specifically?

I'm sure my ex has the same as your wife. Fibromyalgia? She smokes all the time and it's did wonders for her.

 

Aye, that's one of them. She's always hearing about how good it is for Fibro sufferers, but isn't at all keen about trying random shite that could have anything in it. Can't say I blame her.

Here we go again Another attempt at legalisation. 
Another failure probably.
From what I've read, it appears that they are only considering a revision of the schedule of the drug, not its classification. There will be strict regulations in place and it will only be available on prescription for patients who require it.
It's a step in the right direction for people who have been denied vital medicine due to its legal status.
As we have seen in America, medical legalisation has led to recreational legalisation at a state level in many parts of the country so there is hope for change over here. Having said that, I can't see it happening any time soon unfortunately.

Not a fan of cannabis, the smell and the impact it has on folks mental health. But in the long term if it stops the bad guys profiting from its sale, could contribute tax revenue to the nhs and be regulated to stop dangerous THC levels then maybe legalising it isnt such a bad thing.
This 100% , spent a long time using it in my late teens. Regulating it and taxing it while flattening out the THC content will be beneficial to everyone. I wont use it anymore but should not be a criminal offence to do so.

Yeh, although it has a really bad effect on some folks, so does Alcohol so we can’t really use that as an excuse.
If they legalise it the only thing i’d hope for is a ban on smoking it in public places like parks etc because its honking and I wouldnt want my kid to be exposed to it. Concessions on each side would probably see a relatively decent compromise being reached.
Whilst I dont object to the medicinal use I find the pontificating from the facebook ‘doctors’ that cannabis is the magical cure for every illness really grating. Ive met plenty of bams with chronic illnesses who havent been magically cured despite smoking it like champions, so if as a non fan of cannabis I can accept we need to legalise it maybe there’s hope that mob can accept its not the miracle cure for cancer etc they make it out to be.

couldn't really care less one way or t'other, as long as - if it is legalised completely -  the penalties for driving under the influence are equivalent to those for alcohol - and don't give me any horseshit about "it affects people differently, dude" - so does alcohol, and if you drive your car into a bus-stop full of schoolkids they 're going to be the same degree of dead or crippled for life whether you're absolutely off your tits or "just a bit mellow"

if it's proven to be medically beneficial, then of course it should be legalised as a prescription drug - hey, it might even lighten the load for someone who's lost both their legs having been hit by some stoner c**t in a van - cool !

Well you are trying to make it out that alcohol is more harmful than weed, it isn't alcohols fault that you are an irresponsible man child.

Are you really arguing that weed is more harmful than alcohol?

Needs more stereotypes IMO.
