[QUOTE]Originally posted by Gurgeh: [QB] Obviously not, TSN. I mean, what the hell is that supposed to mean? Remarks like that do nothing to progress a discussion. Nimrod: When Vogon Poet said he could "take it or leave it" when referring to hash, I think he was referring to his affinity for the substance, and not dependence, as you seem to have interpreted it. Despite what NIDA [URL=http://www.nida.nih.gov/Infofax/marijuana.html]http://www.nida.nih.gov/Infofax/marijuana.html[/URL] say I don't think anyone could say that marijuana is physically addictive with any credibility, even for long term use. Which is a damn sight more than can be said for alcohol and tobacco. Although I haven't seen many arguments here against legalisation ( and all the valid arguments have been addressed and given consideration ), there still seem to be one or two people here "against" cannabis, without a reason that I find satisfactory. I can understand how being brought up in an environment where people lump cannabis in with hard drugs can tend to bias someones opinion. And besides, if something is illegal, it usually [b]is[/b] bad. However, my argument is that cannabis is an exception. Banning it was a mistake. I don't expect those against legalisation to just reverse their opinion because of my arguments, after all, the adversarial situation often formed in a debate hinders more than aids this, but I would appreciate if those individuals would come up with solid arguments instead of muddying the waters. Arguments like the effect of cannabis on learning and concentration, its effect on health, these are the kind of solid arguments I'm talking about. Most of the points have been exhausted on this topic, it seems, so at this stage I think it can be left to everyone to make up their own mind.
