While home and stoned, you'll be tempted to download music. As a result you'll be jailed for 10 years for piracy, whereas if you kill someone you'll be out within 5. Therefore I assume that the former is more grave.

actually i think the 10 yrs is for the ones either putting that music online in the first place or selling at their local or not so local car boot, rather than for just downloading and listening. if not, then thats going to b alot of students in for 10! :beer: lol

good point though, even with those that sell cds/dvds at the car boot and get jailed for around 10 yrs, im sure there are far worse crimes out there that get alot less.. cRaZy!

There was also a study regarding the link between cannabis and car crashes in France but I thought that was inviting jokes/trouble on way too many levels :rotfl:

Me too, I can focus on the evidence that supports my biased opinion while ignoring any contradictory information:

I'm not saying that cannabis is good, I'm only saying that it has been demonised much further than it needs to be without sufficient OBJECTIVE studies, resulting in brainswashing and "criminal" actions financed with our tax money.

I'd much rather see funds going towards an in-depth objective study (i.e. not a study formulated as "here is £1M for you to prove that cannabis is bad"), and more importantly into:
* public transport which costs an arm in a leg to get in a 20 years old bus that breaks down every 10 miles, that is if it arrives AND stop at all (I mean other than "Oh, I got an idea, let's increase taxes!").
* NHS so that when someone splurts blood they don't have to queue for an hour before being taken care off, that is after driving to the nearest hospital 20 miles away because the one 5 miles away was closed down.
* real crime, i.e. people that attack you at night, steal your mobile and wallet after slashing your face with a Stanley blade, and yet they don't smell pot at all.
* And last but not least, bust the scum which sells REAL drugs, proven to be dangerous if not lethal, like cocaine and other stuff (I wouldn't be able to list them since I don't know much about them, nor do I want to).

I haven't listed any evidence to support my opinion. I haven't even given one.

Evidence regarding links between schizophrenia and cannabis use was requested and I supplied a few investigations (without choosing lots of random unrelated irrelevant links) that point out some evidence (which,being scientific papers question their own studies) and some papers that investigate related studies.

If you had read some of the papers (even just the conclusions) you would have noticed their scientific lack of bias. But then people who already hold a bias opinion rarely bother to read around their subject
