notwell Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 the argument some people have is people take drugs/import them therefore the sentences don't work so just legalise it. well people get sent to jail for rape, murder, assaults but these offences still get committed so should we just legalise it all as obviously prison sentence aren't a deterrent? You are equating smoking a joint in private to rape and murder... Have a long hard think about that. He isn't equating it. Your rationale is that the current illegal status of something is not working because people still do it. Should we legalise drink driving?

gettafa Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 (edited) A particularly nasty and vicious assault (bordering on attempted murder imo and from the report) was reported in today's local paper. The deemster ended a speech to the guy by telling him to do this, do that, and to "stear clear of cannabis". Was it a case of extreme reefer madness ? http://www.iomtoday.co.im/news/isle-of-man-news/girlfriend-suffered-punches-and-kicks-and-had-head-held-under-water-1-7861026 Edited April 19, 2016 by gettafa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the stinking enigma Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 if your daughter is at uni and says she hasn't tried recreational drugs of any kind then she is either lying or i'm a chinaman. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the stinking enigma Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 would it be a subject she could feel she could approach you about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llap Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 I could really do with some drugs to make me chill. Hmmmm, guess cannsbis is illegal, all for my health and safety of course. I guess I'll just pop some prescription opiates and down a bottle of vodka and get drunk, all perfectly legal. What a silly law. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llap Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Prison is exactly the right place for him to go. Whether you're pro-legalisation or not. No, in education, vocational training or a full time job is the right place for him to go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notwell Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 would it be a subject she could feel she could approach you about? I expect so. She isn't into it. And to be fair to her when you can alter your mind legally via £5.50p for three treble vodkas there isn't really a need! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
