Ok... you've drifted off topic on to ciggys and vapes.....
Please.... if these filthy things are; legal, taxed and sold freely, why shouldn't cannabis be?
Cigarettes, along with alcohol; kill more people, are responsible for more car accidents and the reason for more calls than ANY other reason (yes, alcohol mainly, tobacco only kills the user) to police.
Regulate it and tax it!
More states legalize Pot 8) when for Oz?

The use of morphine under active medical supervision is legal now. There could not be any conceivable reason why ThC could not be.
However, this is really a ruse and strategy by the legalisers, who resort to any kind of insincerity to achieve their ruinous purpose. They do not envisage ThC being administered under controlled conditions in a hospital, but instead they want it available on prescription for a range of pain-killing applications, after which is can be used freely wherever and whenever the user likes. Doctors will usually prescribe what a patient asks for, as it is not in their interests to defy their patients. The medical cannabis thing is just a wedge strategy.
The question that really must be asked is why it is so important, to a group of people, that we as a society should license the loss of mind as a recreation ? There is one big giveaway here : note that when they talk about legalizing it, they always talk about "regulating" it too - they know it is intrinsically bad. Yet they want to make it more easily available. Can anyone think of any other case where there is a massive lobby to increase the availability of a product that people want to regulate in use !??
Their position makes no logical sense at a fundamental level, and this shows it. But people no longer know how to think. They have been told *what* to think by the educators and the rock stars and the comics and the advertisers, and it is far more self-satisfying to be licentiously cool with the crowd than it is to be a killjoy who thinks for himself.
