Stay a while and listen.
I am sorry, for whoever cares that is, that I haven´t updated for a while. I will now give you some of my views on marijuana and the debate about Cannabis. This was written during my work, so everything is not complete. There will be more talk about stuff like this later aswell. So keep in touch.
he war on drugs, Koffi Annan, the old general of the UN commented on it and said how it´s failed.
More people are getting hurt by the war against the drugs, than the drugs itself.
In Sweden, everything is illegal, except alcohol and nicotine. Any other substance is illegal to distribute and use, unless it´s prescription drugs the doctor have given you. Then they are fine, eat antidepressants and stronger medicine, instead of selfmedicating yourself.
This post will be and only be about Marijuana. The green flower that have a lot of different uses. You can make clothes from Cannabis, strong ropes, the oil it produces is more potent than the gasoline made by alcohol. In a future, where the prehistoric oil we dig up, polluting with, it´s necessary to use Cannabis.
But there´s one downsize to it. The governments don´t like it when their people are starting to think outside the box.
See it like this, in Sweden, it´s common to come home, take a beer or two, and relax after the work. Sure, it´s tasty, and it´s good. But doing it every day might be considered alcoholism right? But if I come home, after a hard weeks work, ligthing a spliff instead of taking a few, or many, beers and getting drunk, I am a drugaddict. I am a guy, who don´t have control over my own life and thoughts.
I get anxious sometimes, a hit from the bong makes me think straight, see things a bit different. And I question whatever information is produced to me. I am a journalist, but the mainstream media is putting shades over peoples eyes.
In Sweden, marijuana still kills people. According to information given in schools, at workplaces, and media.
The fact is, that no one, not a single person, ever have died from overconsumption of Marijuana. I don´t know the numbers right now, but hundreds or thousands of people die every hour in Nicotine and Alcohol related deaths.
Swedish government, last year put 500 000 euros on a campaing. A campaing that should inform the people on the harm and dangers of using marijuana.
There´s another fun fact, look at the National Geographics documentary about various drugs. Look up the marijuana one, look at The Union, another documentary about marijuana. And see the facts, Marijuana, or the cannabinoids are something that already exist in our brains. So, what could the harm be? To smoke some, get a bit stoned and relax. A marijuana user will probably never go out to shoot and kill people, because they are too moody for that.
If you never smoked, don´t do it. If you´re interested in stuff like that, do some research and light that spliff. In Holland, it´s been decriminalized and they have less drugaddicts which use heavy drugs, then Sweden.
If the governments around the world could let people mind their own business and do whatever they want, as long as they don´t hurt others, I would be happy.
But the fact that Marijuana is a drug that can help you with, hungerproblems, stomachache, headache, and other various sicknesses. The Drugcompanies around the world will never sleep until it´s extinct.
Feed the nature and use it wisely! More to come in later posts.
Peace
