[QUOTE="michaeldavid, post: 391626, member: 57211"] I was a teenager in the 1970s, when there were all kinds of cannabis available, from all over the world - but all grown naturally, I'm sure. (I remember one kind from the name alone: 'Thai sticks'.) Nowadays, perhaps because importation is ever more difficult and risky (on account of the penalties involved for those caught), it's all grown artificially - under lights. (Doubtless much is grown in this country, so the importation difficulties are avoided.) Accordingly, especially since the bigger criminals involved will perhaps not be paying for the electricity, ever-stronger varieties of the drug become available. Some of the stuff I've tried I have found to produce very uncomfortable effects, mentally speaking. And indeed, if on account of your genetic inheritance and/or your social environment you happen to be prone to psychosis, much of this BLACK MARKET material is liable to be distinctly unhealthy for you. These might be counted as grounds for heavier legal penalties. But they might also be counted as grounds for decriminalisation and governmental control. (Never mind about the tax that the government is missing out on.) I look forward to the day when I might read of fields of Afghani cannabis being grown for Western consumers, instead of those same fields being used for opium poppies, much of which is more locally consumed. I believe this has nothing to do with diabetes. However, I might be wrong about that. But since the drug is illegal, the thread's question is effectively academic anyway. [/QUOTE]
