A 17 Year old Head Boy and England under 19 Lacrosse international who was summoned to court for 50p worth of cannabis – has committed suicide after fearing that it would block his chances of working in America. Edward Thornber, 17 was on holiday with his friends in Newquay in 2011 when he was stopped by police and found to be in possession of 50p worth of cannabis. For those unaware of just how little this is look at your little finger nail and then think smaller. It was the second time he had been stopped under the same circumstances.

Even those that don't progress on to the harder stuff end up being non-contributing dopes who hang around bookies and join groups like the SWP or People before Profit. Almost none of them join the ranks of John Q Taxpayer. That's for sure!

Thing is the only thing weed makes you good for is talking..no stoners ever actually got anything done. Mind you,they keep Tesco Express in business buying pringles and roll ups.

Despite being repeatedly shown facts & studies and being met with reasonable argument, you lot still have to resort to this kind of crap. Trying to discredit any reasonable argument by imitating "Flutt" with remarks such as "john q taxpayer" and calling people "pal", "buddy", "chum", etc is fcuking pathetic

Stoners are invariably underweight,pale and malnourished with blank expressions on thier faces and rarely even pay lip service to personal hygene. This isn't scince i know but its a fact none the less...stoners do nothinng except get stoned and watch tv or play videogames...sure it passes the time but it's nothing but a waste of a life.
