The main difference is if you over do Alcohol it usually results in violent disorder.If you over do the cannabis you will probably wake up in your vegetable patch...

It has many many benefits.The guy speaking on the t.v must have been smoking a awful lot to turn him psychotic,You have to self regulate like 1or 2 per day not like cigarettes.If your in pain there is nothing better.Nothing.Alcohol and cigarettes are far more dangerous.

For every parent reading this article, it is a failure in maximising the safety of your children in allowing the current drugs policy to continue. We need to make the streets safer for our children, prohibition makes the world a more dangerous place for them to grow up in.

At 13yrs old weed alcholol it doesn't matter its going to cause problems make alcohol illegal then see what happens

Not being funny but this article is about ten years too late.

obviously and it has been for decades. Head out of the sand please....

As for the ridiculous " it leads to harder drugs " in my experience ( n i DO HAVE experience ) ITS A LACK of cannabis that leads to harder drugs - availability has always been a key factor there - that leads to temptation .remove alcohol from sale for 1 month - see what happens

rightly so - idiot water causes more shit n days off work than soft mick. name me a product that has improved in quality 70 % ? has only gone up by 20-30 pounds an ounce since the 80s ? ( largely due to fuel tax) has increased sales 200 fold ? = weed

100 % true where i live you can smell it down any street 11 ... 12 year olds upwards

You can not go round any town in Britain with out seeing some one out of there face by drugs! Nothings being done and the problems growing fast!

It has been as far as I can remember, for the last 25 years no news here again ...

FFS drug dealers don't ask fir ID, who's paid for this shit?

I guess drug dealers don’t ask for ID like those pesky shop owners! I guess we could put them out of business by legalising the dam stuff and taxing it!

I didn’t know you had to be over a certain age to buy drugs that are illegal.

Will do them a lot less harm.
