Marijuana Is For Us: Seattle Cannabis Cooperative Celebrates Legalisation

MARIJUANA is now mainstream in the USA. But the debate over the use of cannabis in the UK is nil. The criminality that underpins all the Government’s view on drugs stymies debate. Anyone saying the drug has uses is either a crank or a drug-addled fool. How sad it that if someone wants to smoke a joint to alleviate a symptom or chronic condition in their own bodies they become a criminal.
