Cannabis has been on this earth for over 1000's of years and not one single death has ever been contributed to cannabis directly! How come we are told its a dangerous ''Drug''? This is far from the truth!
Cannabis is a plant with very high medicinal purposes which has been scientifically proven numerous time to help in the reduction of pain in ailments such as AIDS, GLAUCOMA, ANXIETY, DEPRESSION, CANCER, ADHD. There are numerous other examples.
If cannabis is legalized it would also generate HUGE TAX which could be put to reducing our national debt, improving our health care system, improving our schools, increased tourism to our once great nation. It would also reduce government spending on policing our current anti-cannabis policy. 6 in 10 drug related arrests in Ireland are for cannabis? Could these resources not be put to better use?
The establishment of a legal cannabis system would create massive employment particularly in the farming sector which is already in need of a massive boost.
Cannabis could also be used to produce cleaner energy and reduce greenhouse levels which are at an all time high of 400ppm (parts per million).
We the people of the nation of Ireland need to take action if we are ever going to see the legalization of Cannabis for Medicinal & Recreational purposes! The only way this campaign will succeed is if we stand united and make our voices heard.
We need to create public awareness & educate people who have been misinformed by the numerous articles of yellow journalism relating to How ''dangerous'' Cannabis use is !! In modern society we deserve to have the CHOICE whether we want to use cannabis or not.
Should the government have control over what we can and cannot do ? NO THEY SHOULD NOT! We need to stand as one and take the fight to the streets and ''OVERGROW THE GOVERNMENT''.
