I could come up with loads i expect which would still not PROVE either belief

[Pete]

Ah well that proves it beyond doubt eh ?

In the view of such harmony in the cosmos which I, with my limited human mind, am able to recognise, there are yet people who say there is no God. But what makes me really angry is that they quote me for support for such views. (The Expanded Quotable Einstein, Princeton University Press, p. 214)

[Pete]

Combining two things that Einstein didnt combine, thats a little presumptious of the author of that article isn’t it. And the salient word is believed. There is no proof either way

When i was 18 i had no trouble with the police, when i was 19 i had no trouble with the police, when i was 20 i had no trouble with the police, when i was 21…. you get the picture.
Actually when i was 18 i met 2 excellent police officers and one tosspot the very same night indeed the very same time the tosspot arriving and sodding up the good work being done by the other two

In terms of figures in context with what i say, the amount is un-important…..all could be 5 or 500……it matters not the slightest, what matters is that THE MAJORITY of that figure have been as described..

dont talk such utter shite, you’re basing a police force as a whole on your experiences of 4 or 5 police officers. I used the same context you did and you’re backpedalling like hell. It’s as likely that because you smoke the stuff you were afraid you’d get caught and so you acted suspiciously

these people who abuse their power far outnumber those who do not, i speak from personal experience

so 5 officers 4 were less than professional and 4 FAR OUTNUMBERS 1 does it? The amount is important, indeed it’s bloody vital

So can murder but it’s not remotely relevant to this debate now is it Lots of things are far more harmful than cannabis but that doesn’t mean cannabis is harmless. You want to take it, feel free, i dont have any objections whatsoever to be honest as long as it doesn’t cause harm to others. Alcohol and cigarettes are legal but i’m not going to defend cannabis because they’re legal and harmful.

Oh and Gaz.. ALL ? whats that 4 maybe 5.. cannabis obviously has the ability to enhance insight and apply your statistical data to the whole force.. or was it you were a tad worried in case they found the drug on your person :wink:

All forms of cannabis are mind-altering. In other words, they change how the brain works. They all contain THC (delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol), the main active chemical in cannabis. They also contain more than 400 other chemicals.

cannabis’s effects on the user depend on the strength or potency of the THC it contains. THC potency of cannabis has increased since the 1970s but has been about the same since the mid-1980s.

Cannabis is usually smoked as a cigarette (called a joint or a nail) or in a pipe or a bong. Recently, it has appeared in cigars called blunts.

THC in cannabis is strongly absorbed by fatty tissues in various organs.

Generally, traces (metabolites) of THC can be detected by standard urine testing methods several days after a smoking session. However, in heavy chronic users, traces can sometimes be detected for weeks after they have stopped using cannabis.

Findings so far show that regular use of cannabis or THC may play a role in some kinds of cancer and in problems with the respiratory, and immune systems.

It’s hard to know for sure whether regular cannabis use causes cancer. But it is known that cannabis contains some of the same, and sometimes even more, of the cancer-causing chemicals found in tobacco smoke. Studies show that someone who smokes five joints per day may be taking in as many cancer-causing chemicals as someone who smokes a full pack of cigarettes every day.

People who smoke cannabis often develop the same kinds of breathing problems that cigarette smokers have: coughing and wheezing. They tend to have more chest colds than nonusers. They are also at greater risk of getting lung infections like pneumonia.

Animal studies have found that THC can damage the cells and tissues in the body that help protect people from disease. When the immune cells are weakened, you are more likely to get sick.

On the other side, cannabis is now recognised as being a useful drug for reducing the effects of many conditions and hass been show not to be chemically addictive.

All these points and more are covered in the Cannabis Growers Toolkit, together with a free pack of seeds.

From Cannabisheaven website.. both sides which was more or less my opinion before i read it

Maybe every officer ive ever had to deal with (and it hasnt been that many) deserved tarring with the same brush.

Did that thought ever occur to you :roll:

So maybe the whole police force is useless then ?
To say maybe you were unlucky somehow sounds like it’s cheapening your experience, which i dont mean to do but dont you think other officers would have maybe handled it differently
