• AS an American, I can say I like most things about living in the UK more, but I don’t understand the archaic marijuana laws.

Why should police waste any time arresting dealers? Weed is considerably less damaging to the user than alcohol, less addictive, and has been either decriminalised or legalised in the majority of American states.

Join the 21st century and give up demonising “the devil’s weed”. It’s relatively harmless, and if people are going to buy it, you might as well legalise and tax it.
