It has serious negative effects on the brain. There's a reason it's illegal.

As someone who doesn't smoke and never has I can assure you that if you do your history on cannibis you'll find the real reason why it was made illegal. You'll also see if used correctly it can help with epilepsy, pain, chemotherapy treatments, migraines, IBS, Arthritis, cancer treatments, PTSD, Anxiety, Glaucoma, MS, endometriosis and a whole range more. 
I mean comparing weed and alcohol, alcohol's negative side-effects can last days whilst weed's side-effects are pretty much gone within 24 hours and we've all seen how many people are hospitalised from actions caused when drunk. Obviously, there is far more to the debate but as someone who despises the smell of weed being smoked I have seen people who struggled to get by day to day due to severe illnesses have their lives changed by smoking or microdosing with gummies and it improves their quality of life massively.
We could discuss this at length and barely touch the surface of the effects on the brain, you say it's negative take this man for an example:
 

Can weed be abused? of course, as can so many legal drugs, but that doesn't mean they should be illegal.

There are many medical studies concluding that long term or heavy cannabis use impairs cognitive function, but I guess you know better than all those scientists and doctors

If cannabis is/was legalised then it would come with heavy legislation and  taxation, revenue from taxes alone would/could be used to conduct more medical studies into how the plant effects the brain/body both negatively and positively.

I don’t smoke or drink but I’d to see us go down the same path as Portugal and decriminalise all drugs. The fact that we haven’t is far more down to corruption than health, look at the stats and read a few papers on Portuguese drug policy, very interesting.

We have a team! 

The one overriding factor is that they all played during the Lansdown family ownership.

BBC reporting that one of the girls was his partner and Jet had been involved in the flight planning via Dubai

Via Dubai? That's insane, I believe they have the death penalty for drug smuggling? If not that, very harsh sentencing. Potentially, selling your life for a few grand. Bloody idiots!

The War on Drugs never had anything really to do with combating drugs. It was all about regime change in certain South and Central American states. Providing a pretext to remove certain people basically.  

 

 

 Not just that mate, let’s not forget that the biggest smuggling cartel was actually the American government themselves.

If drugs were legalised and regulated, none of that happens. Puts drug dealers out of business - jobs a good un.

I've thought long and hard about this and my thoughts are, whilst the government regulated drugs may be safer and go through all sorts of checks the black market will just make theirs better and cheaper, because who wants to take 5 pills when you can just take one? #90sraving

I can immediately think of 3 people who I know who suffered extreme mental health problems because of cannabis. Mind you they would never accept it was the weed that caused it. 

One of them was absolutely convinced he was being abducted by aliens every night. 

Another was convinced that God was telling him what to do which led to him attacking a vicar and another has been in a mental health institute for a number of years and now he doesn't even remember his own name. 

I think from my own experiences in life, if someone has an existing mental health problem then smoking cannabis will intensify those problems. 

I've rarely come accross any one who smokes it where it has no impact upon them and their daily life. 

I ended a relationship with an ex partner because she used weed to Numb the pain from a broken back. And I could understand why she'd want to Numb the pain but the cannabis use changed her as a person. She became demotivated, lazy, spaced out, void of emotions, lacked any drive and became a shadow of her former self. It also stopped her having any dreams when she slept and then there was the conspiracy theories. 

When it was clear she had no desire to quit then my decision was made easy as I didn't want to be in an environment with someone under rhe influence of an addiction. 

It's really really sad because what cannabis does is convince the user that it's a miracle drug. That God created it. That It's the solution to all of the problems in the world. That smoking it opens up their minds to critical thinking and spiritual awareness and all that stuff. 

I can’t only assume all these 3 started before they turned 25? Silly really as after 25 it’s game on apparently…

To be fair. We (Bristol City) had by far the best of JET’s career by far.

Was really bizarre that only really SOD got the absolute best out of JET. He was ok under Cotterill but was unstoppable with SOD in charge.

Maybe so, but the sentencing for growing and selling it has been incredibly light these last few years.

I didn’t play in any of those games though?? He wasn’t necessarily using it ??

That would be because with a weed addiction people think like they can't function normally unless they've had a spliff. Of course we know that's the drug talking. 

You should call 999 if you ever come accross a drug driver as no different to a drink driver.

Its fine for anyone over 25. And its a plant. Which is now legal in may parts of the world. We really need to catch up

Certainly is here in Canada, the Government owned shops make a ton of money in taxes off of it, all the products are of the highest grade and although I don't smoke the stuff I do use the zero THC CBD oil to help me sleep, it was a bloody life changer for me actually being able to sleep after 40 odd years of pain
