Rejected petition legalising cannabis

More details

By doing this you take away the black market from drug dealers who deal in organised crime. The amount of youths who have had their ability to apply for an acutual decent paying job cant now as they have a record for a class b substance. Weed is a bigger crop than corn, its acceptable for people to be drunk on weekend cause criminal damage, become abusive and as we have all seen lead on to alcoholism. even though alcohol is regulated it dont deter people from costing the NHS however much it does cost by looking after the drunks. Its about time to realise that smoking marajuana is no different than drinking or smoking a cigar.
