As somebody who has smoked a LOT of ganja, I'm very much in two minds about legalising marijuana.
On one hand it would certainly mean less dry spells for me, if I could just pop down the shop and grab some.
Plus other benefits to it: it makes me more creative, stoned people are generally less violent (and often more pleasant), etc. then drunk people, to be around.
On the other, I've known it drive quite a few people pretty mental, myself included to some degree. And the fact hasn't escaped me, that if I hadn't spent the last 18 years sat around on my ass, getting high, and playing video games, etc. I might have gone out and done more interesting things, achieved more...
If you can keep it in moderation, an occasional toke is probably a good thing. But if you let it get a hold on you, like most drugs, you can snap out of it years later, and wonder where your life went. And despite what some say, it can be very addictive.Uh...I forgot the question.
Actually it's legal in Amsterdam and it works well there
