HarderFaster Forums >> General Mayhem >> Alcohol consumption would fall 25% if cannabis cafes were allowed Author Pages (1):  [1]      Matt V2.0 Registered: Apr 2002 Posts: 12992 - Threads: 520 Location: Surrey Quote: A former government adviser on drugs has told MPs that alcohol consumption would fall by as much as 25% if Dutch-style cannabis "coffee shops" were introduced in Britain. Prof David Nutt also told the Commons home affairs committee that he stood by his claim that horse-riding was more dangerous than taking ecstasy, despite the fact that the comparison triggered his sacking as chairman of the advisory committee on the misuse of drugs (ACMD). Nutt told MPs the cost of policing cannabis use was only £500m a year, mainly for issuing possession warning notices, compared with the £6bn a year bill for policing the use of alcohol, including dealing with people who were drunk and disorderly. http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/2012/jun/19/david-nutt-alcohol-cannabis-cafes GO PROF NUTT!

Whilst I don't see them ever replacing pubs they will certainly provide people with a nice alternative, especially midweek when too much alcohol affects your ability to get up for work the next day in a way that cannabis doesn't. soundcloud.com/voodoobass mixcloud.com/voodoobass Report this post to a moderator | IP: Logged 19-06-2012 18:24 PM Latex Zebra Registered: Feb 2003 Posts: 8956 - Threads: 217 Location: London 2012 Honourable Mention DJ Winner Flounce Joint Winner Meltdown Winner The Dark Side Quote: voodoobass wrote on 19-06-2012 06:24 PM \0/ NUTT NUTT NUTT!!!

I dunno, I had this Skunk once that was so strong I was still stoned when I woke up. As a result I didn't go to work that day and stayed home and got mullered. I think it is fair to say that everyone on the Internet is annoying.

That really depends on the strength and how often you use it. Weed-overs definitely exist. Check out the music productions on my Soundcloud page if you dare!

Weed-overs definitely exist. Moderation. Don't smoke an 8th of banging high-grade if you're a lightweight. Same deal as a non-regular drinker trying to smash a bottle of whiskey in a night. If you're smoking weed that's stronger than you're used to, chillax - slow down. Don't smoke your usual amount. And if you're smoking so much that you can't get up the next morning, you're doing it wrong. HarderFaster IRC - Join us!

Seems to be a lot stronger these days, plus I'm probably a lightweight.

Smoke every day, even the most chronic of chronics gives you a nice mellow buzz with more of a head or a body stone depending on what you have in your J. If you're only ever smoking infrequently, one or two tokes will get you ripped for an hour or two (and most probably in that less-productive way). Most of the medicinal benefits are realised by consuming little and often rather than just getting baked. soundcloud.com/voodoobass mixcloud.com/voodoobass Report this post to a moderator | IP: Logged 20-06-2012 16:06 PM All times are GMT.
