The most destructive part of the whole marijuana deal is the law. When police kill or brutalize petty dealers and sometimes users. Weed use is quite benign but the law aspect is what causes crisis and harm to the society, the law is basically a distraction and an excuse to invade personal rights and freedoms of the individual. The legal system in St. Lucia operates like gut shot cow running down a crowded market, it’s only concern is to mindlessly destroy anything in it’s path without any concern or care. We need to decriminalize ganja today.

Well I position myself long time and I am re$ping before the flood gates open just know. UnfourtuatelyThe Stiff Upper Lip Belligerent Mentality runs rampant down there and the “CLIQUE” and friends of the CLIQUE(they know themselves) lips get even stiffer of notion of the legalization of The Lucian GANJA GOLD. ( Cough cough) yeessss but if they can contain the vast wealth that will be generated for themselves then you will see them edging towards legalization. They love money and power and banana dead, tourism is too fragile. As usual Jamaica is a trend setter not a follower wash everybody play catch up year end. I hope I live to see it

capitalise on the present opportunities my find us playing a catch-up game later on. By then it would be to late to late to take full advantage of the full benefits for being the trailblazers (no pun intended:) ) in a relatively competition free landscape.

What a wonderfully written article. It had me laughing while at the same time was sound in logic :). For some reason images of large swathes of contented and chilled out people in Colorado kept popping in my head. On a serious note though, the precedent has been set – much like online education. Those who fail to grab the opportunity will be left behind. With the banana sector struggling to barely stay afloat and likewise the entire agricultural sector, the government should strongly consider ‘at least’ the THC free hemp variety. It is as versatile a plant as they come. The relevant legislature will have to be strengthened and the applicable laws enforced rigidly. Failure to…

Most of the world has been fooled and lied to, you would be shocked to really know who are the bosses of all the drugs being sold world wide, yes, most of them are saintly and well respected by the society. Their secret is well hidden, and we are all being distracted by the so called war on drugs. The war is against the small but visible dealers at the bottom of the chain and users, and this war is so well orchestrated by multi-national businesses who hold a cartel on just about all facets of daily life and business, they create a version of reality that you suckers are all brainwashed into believing. SUCKERS.

Small states like Saint Lucia needs to be careful about the legalization of marijuana. This may have serious consequences for food security on island as farmers may find the cultivation of marijuana more lucrative than that of food. Something to think about.

I do not smoke marijuana and probably never will, but as far as I can see the benefits far outweigh the detriments. I think we can fault alcohol for breaking up a lot more families than cannabis. Always wondered if the illegality of weed has more to do with how complicated it might be to tax the product than anything else. On the other hand, seeing first hand how the abuse of marijuana can affect a person’s ability to control their emotions is to me at least one reason I would argue for it to be regulated, but not made “illegal”.
