weed isn't just "weed" these days ...... the THC levels are massively higher

Massively higher?
The best gear of today has maybe five times the THC of the best gear of the 1960s.
That multiplier tapers off with the quality of the gear - bush of today is much like bush of yesteryear. Average heads are much like average heads of before.

The "massive THC compared with before" idiocy is a frightener in a similar vein to the good ol' "drug x is instantly addictive" one we often get fed by the media.

The same old shyte I used to hear from my son Roll Eyes

Did I mention "instant" addiction?

Oh btw ... 5 times as strong is massive in my books.

And whether or not it is "bush" grown or hydro..... the type of plant which has been selected & improved since the 60's will hold the same THC strengths. The difference is in the growth rates.... hydro being faster to reach maturity.

Spirits are about 8x stronger than beer, but it doesnt matter because you drink less of it.

I don't think most spirit drinkers would drink less ..... probably do more liver damage.... but I wouldn't say less.

Latest news ....... the Corbys are denying that that weird Lawyer has ever represented them or Schapelle.

And the Prison Governor is saying the parole could be delayed by further bureaucratic processes.

The plot thickens Grin

in the link that was provided about that nincompoop so called Lawyer they use the term.. "she was Corby's purported Lawyer" Roll Eyes

Cannabis users are NOT 'junkies', John.Fur fox sake, they're not even 'drug addicts'.Smoking a joint is less harmful than drinking, and you do not become violent or suffer from hang-overs.

No. You read it wrong.

" ... has no ill effects".

Nobody is saying it has NO ill effects.

It certainly has some ill effects, however, not those particular ill effects.

Yep.

The last time I drove into Nimbin I was approached by a 10 year old kid on a bike selling pot before I had even got out of my parked car and locked the door.
