    the herbs are common and will not go away (nor should it). am i a real criminal? (wouldn't drink alcohol or use tobacco)
    they have made 'crime' out of something natural. other than this, they're just thick bullies that i don't look at.
    I cant see why u have an issue with the Gardai over this? They are the law enforcers not the lawmakers. If an activity is
    deemed illegal it his their job to enforce the law . If u have an issue with said law take it up with the lawmakers who are
    ure elected representatives who pass the legislation that brings that law into effect.
    There are plenty of laws i dont agree with but i can hardly blame the Gardai for that they didnt write the laws.
    Blatant promotion should be outlawed
    but

It would be utter choas otherwise. Plus, your statement implies that ALL police are corrupt. No, they are not.

    This is obviously one of those half-baked 'fuck da law, smoke da draw' statements, and asking people here in the context of an escort forum, would automatically relate to the enforcement of drugs and prostitution. I bet those that voted below 50% would contact these very people that they 'don't trust' or 'trust very little' if their house was burgled or their car was stolen, rather than go all vengeful and take to the streets with a double-barreled shot gun to take matters into their own hands.
    the law against Cannabis is unjust. some people will risk this silly perception
    of being thought of as a criminal to do what they ought to be free to do (one life)

    look at the trend. Stateside, 50 million Americans now enjoy crime free Marijuana (check Colorado)
    this is the country that made the UN attempt to ban it and cause a lot of death and misery.

    Uruguay and many south American nations are abandoning this futile and damaging notion.

    drug policy/reality is a mess, you ought to know better?

    so i'm only a fake criminal (for now).

    That's beside the point. It is still a crime. You would get a criminal record for possessing it. As Ber said, the police enforce the laws, they don't create them, and ironically if you expect them to turn a blind eye to what you do (because it's not really a crime), they would be in fact corrupt in that sense. Many people agree with this law.

    You have been sold an impossible reality: a drug free society

    and now the cops can't deliver that. so who are the delusional ones really?

    Well u are well within your rights to break the law if u feel strongly enough about it b ut if u decide to do so and are then caught
    dont bitch about the Gardai they are just doing what they are being paid to do. Its not for them to pick and chose which laws they enforce and which they ignore.

    it's on the statute book, yes. it was put there with no research. this futile law is criminal.

    most of the others are good.

    There are many impossible realities, for instance a crime free society is an impossible reality and the police will never be
    able to deliver that, so by ure logic they should stop trying and just disband and we could have a free for all
    Blatant promotion should be outlawed
