Legalise Weed. Don't Get Stabbed

My name is Ben and I have a problem. My problem; my dealer has stopped dealing. After the re-classifaction of cannabis, many dealers no longer want to deal in fear of getting caught and facing harsher jail sentences if caught dealing the now Class B drug.

This has left many stoners extrememly sober. And the pressures of society are starting to get to us. Reality is hard, and weed is a distraction. People say its addictive. WRONG. What's addictive is the feeling of relaxation that comes over you. Problems aren't has serious when you are stoned.

Cannabis becomes Class B, more people are getting stabbed. Coincedience? I think not. Less weed equals more violent crimes. Gordon Brown wants to stop knife crime, the silution is to legalise weed.

Imagine this young people (that are drawn into committing violent crimes) stoned. See in the number of stabbings and gun crimes go down. Watch them drop off the chart.

"But Ben, weed is a gateway drug!"
Is it? Is it really? I can name an endless about of drug users. Any idea what drug they used first? It wasn't weed, it was alcohol. Alcohol is THE gateway drug. But it's fine because alcohol is legal, so using that logic it's fine for weed to be a gateway drug, if it is legalised.

How many fights would take place in your town/city centre on a Friday night if everyone was stoned ... alot less than there is now, while everyone is pissed up beyond belief. Did you know that of all the violent crimes committed in this country, almost half of the offenders are under the influence of alcohol at the time (Thanks to Sky One's Street Wars for that information)?

"But Ben, weed causes cancer!"
So? Tobacco causes cancer. Alcohol causes so much internal damage to the body. Step out your front door and take a breath of fresh car exhaust fumes, mmmm healthy. The sun causes skin cancer, is anyone going to ban the sun? In a country where we are free to kill ourselves with drink, salty foods and sunlight, what more harm is a plant going to do?

"But Ben, cannabis sends its users crazy!"
The propaganda of Reefer Madness makes people think that weed sends you crazy. If so why aren't there more crazy people in the world. Do you know how many people are smoking weed? The fact the newspapers use headlines such as "Crazied Stoner Kills", is due to the fact they want to scare the public. I'm sure Ian Huntly had the occasional drink, but alcohol had nothing to do with what he did. The only thing that makes a stoner crazy or mad is an empty packet of Rizlas.

So lets stop knife crime and light one up. See if you still want to kill someone after a few hits from the bong. Watch how you begin too not take life so serious, see politians cower as they notice you seeing threw the lies they push down your throat on a day to day basis.
