It's Official: Gordon Brown and Jacqui Smith Have Lost Their Minds

Yep, despite all the evidence and the science,
British Home Secretary Jacqui Smith is calling for cannabis
to be re-classified back up to "B" from "C." Pete Guither

That is a huge assumption by NORML...
Like British copycat Reefer Madness,
The Governments B&S even having minds is just theory.
Re-scheduling was a foregone conclusion.
The goal/agenda all along.
Theory or rather, conjecture, is all the evidence they have
so it must not be a very important part of the equasion there,
as it isn't here.
Just taking it from the people,
not the government cash register.
Which is less un-civilized than U.S. D.E.A.th. DdC

Reefer madness across the pond
The BBC is understood to be keen to show the film on the eve of a decision by Jacqui Smith, the Home Secretary, to recriminalise cannabis by upgrading it from C to B status. Her decision is expected in the spring.

Expert Advisers Threaten Revolt By James Randerson
Guardian Unlimited, Science January 14, 2006 United Kingdom
Members of a top drug advisory panel who wrote a secret report to the home secretary on cannabis may resign if the government reclassifies the drug to class B, the Guardian has learned. They are concerned that Charles Clarke is considering upgrading cannabis and say this would be in direct contradiction to the findings of their unpublished report. They say such a move would set a "damaging precedent", and that their report - which the Guardian has seen - explicitly rules out reclassification.

Pot Potency? Boomers' blissfully unfazed by facts (thread)

This is not your father's marijuana. Or your mother's. And that's the problem. A generation that often viewed marijuana use with a casual eye is now old enough to have kids who may be experimenting with the drug themselves. But their own experiences with pot are keeping them from having an accurate perception about use of the drug these days.

Average Pot Potency No Stronger, Study Says

The overall strength of marijuana available in Europe has remained stable despite claims from US officials and others that it has increased significantly in recent years, according to a study released this week by the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction.

Drugwar Distortion 11: Marijuana Potency

False: Federal research shows that the average potency of cannabis in the US has increased very little. According to the federal Potency Monitoring Project...

Parents are often unaware that today's marijuana is different from that of a generation ago, with potency levels 10 to 20 times stronger than the marijuana with which they were familiar.
John P. Walters, US Drug Czar
01 May 2002 Washington Post, p. A25

Is marijuana more potent today than in the past?

Potency is a red herring. Average use today may be of marijuana that is about 2 to 3 times as potent as decades ago but users simply use less to get the same effect with less smoke. Even 30 years ago, much more potent strains than are normally used today were available, but were seldom used. As with alcohol and tobacco, users generally prefer milder versions.

Brown is a c*nt, nuff said. He's an idiot for IGNORING SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE, he's a failing, un-elected primeminister who's just doing this for votes, when in fact he's only alienating himself from an entire community and generation. Well done you fat prick. At least it will only come in to effect starting next year, i still have time, but i'm never gonna quit til they lock me up and then i'll come out and blaze a fat one i don't give a fuck what the government has to say about cannabis, i know a lot more then they do.
