Brilliant post Kaya my dad lives in a small town in California which was on it's knees due to industry losses etc.
Since Arnie's inspirational idea to make cannabis legal for medicinal use this town has turned around it's fortune.
They are now all 'farmers' growing cannabis for the pharmacy's, my dad says it is a wonderful town to live in no-one drinks to excess anymore so the crime rate has gone down, everyone is extrememely pleasant to each other and relaxed. and they are very prosperous.
Yes clearly cannabis is the devils drug and all who use it should be hung drawn and quartered!!!!
Not like that legal drug alchohol which turns many people into violent, aggressive, animals, vomiting and peeing on the streets, thats fine!!!!

But surely you must have accidentally stepped in dog's mess or cleaned out a cat's litter tray or changed a baby's nappy or at the very least mistakenly gone into the bathroom straight after your dad!

Yes all of those things, I still stand by my initial statement. Crikey, am I not entitled to my opinion now?

I hate the smell of lavender aswell, is that also wrong?

See I can't stand alcohol either, the smell isn't so bad to me but I don't drink. They could ban that for me aswell but then this country would be in even more of a state than it is now.

Not at all, in fact you're just the person I've been looking for....

I'd love to do a smell swap, you can come round and change my kitten's litter tray and use the bathroom immediately after my OH at that ahem 'regular' time of the day and I'll come round and smell all your weed and lavender!

Everyone's a winner!

you can get a drug called sativex on prescription, this is a cannabis plant extract made by GW pharma , and if there was any truth whatsoever in the mental health -cannabis link please explain why most of holland are NOT raving mad? up until the first world war cannabis and opium were our main daily use drugs all over the world, in order to get it banned henry anslinger and his kronies had to re-name the plant "marjuana" , if they had stood before congress and said they wanted to ban "cannabis hemp" they would have been laughed out of the building !! cannabis is a variety of the hemp plant , hemp was the reason we were able to sail all over the world invading countries and enslaving the native populations , no hemp-No ropes or sails for ships(cotton rots amazingly fast in salt water) , there are many reasons that cannabis is illegal and they are all to do with money and not health , most of the wars you learned about at school were fought over hemp, no hemp-no navy!!! for anybody who is interested in the subject rather than just quoting the carp they read in the media there was a man called Jack Herrer(RIP Jack) who dedicated his entire life to the study of cannabis and wrote a book called "the emperor wears no clothes" , maybe the daily mail readers on here can explain why the media and governbent say its dangerous but a Big Pharma compay can grow it in secret warehouses and sell the two main psychoactive ingredients (THC and CBD)as a painkiller and anti-muscle spasticicty drug to me?? , if it were legalised the textile industry, alcohol industry and big Pharma's would take the biggest hit to their share prices since they began trading-thats the reason its illegal , your governbent would rather sell you a registered poison that kills people, and makes people go home and beat the carp out of their Mrs than a medicinal herb that makes people relaxed and calm , a survey in the late 1980's showed that something silly like 70% of ALL politicians had financial interests in the alcohol industry , hemp fibre is softer, warmer and lasts 3 times as long as cotton , hemp will grow in virtually any climate anywhere on the planet, you can produce 4 crops annualy, use it to reclaim land, make fuel from it, food, clothing, plastics-it is the most biologicly advanced plant known to mankind , henry ford made a car which the bodywork was made entirely from hemp cellulose, it was 10x stronger than steel, bio-degradable , would not rust-i could go on for ages but i guess for some people they are content being spoon fed rubbish by the media and governbent rather than using their own brains to find out what is true and what is not

What's the difference between a derivative and an extract?
And I criticised the link with schizophrenia but proposed that in my opinion it contributes to depression but pointed out that other legal drugs have ill effects too.
And Fords car had hemp fibres in the matting that held together the resin but was hardly made of hemp. It could've been run on hemp oil though.

If you weren't possibly stoned you would have been able to read my post and understand instead of going off on an ill informed rant.

A crucial difference if the smell is lingering on your clothes and , say, you work for a conservative company who quietly think you are a smoker and it ipacts on your chances of career progression. If they think you smell of curry at least they don't think you are breaking the law to get to smell that way!

Hopefully the smell isn't that bad.

It does NOT linger on your clothes, honestly. Cigarette smoke, yes. Weed, no.

Never halted my career progression one iota.

Good point.

You have traces on your clothes and there's a drug dog in use at the airport or rail station ...

They won't do anything. Been there, done that, dog didn't pay any attention to me. The smell does not linger in fabrics, unless you still have some actual stuff on you (which, to be clear, I never do outside of the Netherlands - Despite my disagreement with the UK law, I still follow it when in the UK).
