Why, the reptoids will rule us, of course.

Hard to say really, but I'd imagine (hope) that race will stop being a meaningful term, and skin colour will have the same status as eye or hair colour.

Attitudes to abortion and euthanasia will probably become more liberal, and hopefully people's right to do what they want with their own bodies will become sacred (regarding homosexuality and drugs for example).

Lol.

Any opinion on why this is incorrect? Any challenge?


No. Didnt think so. Ill bet your one of these cool guys who goes to legalisation marches and backs up their rubbish with half truths you stole off teh internetz.

Weed grows in any climate. If people cant reliably get it, they'll grow it themselves. Its already increased here more than its ever been, both in terms of availability and numbers of people growing it for themselves.

Most regular smokers are in their teens and 20s. Most people in their 20s are either living with their parents or are living in a house share, which may lead to alot of difficulty explaining why the electricity bill is so high, or why there is a funny smell coming from the attic.

Apart from that, what do you think the Garda helicopter is doing flying over your house at night? Half the reason they are up is to turn on the heat sensors to detect any unusual amount of heat coming from attics or garden sheds in the small hours. Cannabis availability has been on a perpetual decline since 2006 tbh. The government is winning the war on cannabis, and the legalisation crowd are just too proud to admit their whole "prohibition doesnt work" and "you cant win the drugs war" mantras were wrong. The government has managed to largely cut off the supply of cheap Morrocan soap. Leading to a situation where traffickers are importing grass, cutting it to shreds by mashing herbs and such into it, then selling a product about half as strong as the much maligned soap for twice the price that will last you about 1/4 of the time a lump of the oul diesel would have.

The Brits have reclassified cannabis. The Irish government has cut off supply leaving a gap that has only been filled by poor quality grass that people will eventually tire of wasting their money on, much like the way cocaine isnt half as popular in Dublin as it was 2 or 3 years ago, mainly because people realised it was overpriced and sh1t. It is highly likely the Dutch will ban cannabis except for medicinal use within the next decade.

So with all of the above, why the hell will it be legalised here?

Hopefully this degenerate attitude towards drugs, be they legal or otherwise will be cured. Abuse of alcohol on our streets (and subway/public transport systems) alongside sentences handed out to harmless individuals carrying small quantities of hash/weed, turn my stomach

What in the **** does alcohol have to do with it?

Most smokers drink like fish anyway. What the hell is your point?
