Uruguay leader calls Colorado pot law 'a fiction'

27. Pharmacies ..

.. selling pure horticultural MJ ... what a wonderful idea The Americas' on the front line of sanity! Go guys.!

That would be the death throws for black market MJ and Narco Profits where adulterants are added to add weight and often added to give the visual impression of nice buds with no toxic pesticides.

The health benefit for users alone is reason enough but add a nice revenue stream for Local/State Government its a win-win. I sincerely hope the actions in Colorado and Washington leads to a snow ball effect and the EU and especially the UK Government take notice rather poo poo educated professionals like our Prof Nutt.

Nutt had accused ministers of "devaluing and distorting" the scientific evidence over illicit drugs by their decision last year to reclassify cannabis from class C to class B against the advice of the ACMD.

As an occasional smoker of MJ (yes it's bad I should make cookies) I need to be very careful as one police caution could bar me entry to your fine country forever

Nutt incurred the wrath of the government when he claimed in a paper that alcohol and tobacco were more harmful than many illegal drugs, including LSD, ecstasy and cannabis.

Apologies for meandering off topic but this drugs are ALL bad and almost zero government funded harm reduction schemes leaves me confounded and angry .. it's the 21st century!
