Because a few thousand in the early 70s, cannabinophiles are millions and refuse to treat patients and drug addicts.
Because smoking cannabis is filled by a majority of users and they would never pass a substance harder.
By many that (his) are those (those) who are arrested (s) each year for a single use, and for a few grams of grass or shit, are held (s) and imprisoned (e) s.
Because under the constitution, "freedom is to do everything that does not harm others" (Article 4 of the Declaration of Human Rights). And smoking a joint can only harm yourself. It is therefore an obstacle to individual liberties.
Because express remarks contrary to the official doctrine is a crime that could result in prosecution. It is therefore an obstacle to freedom of expression.
Because cannabis prohibition enriches mafias, encouraged corruption at all levels and finance wars and terrorism in many countries.
Because it involves the movement of adulterated products harmful to health (H cut glue, henna, paraffin, etc. ...) and facilitates the escalation among young people to harder substances such as heroin This runs counter to public health.
Because in the name of the war on drugs, drugs are forbidden by imposing those south of the north such as alcohol, tobacco and drugs.
Because in legalizing marijuana and decriminalizing other drugs, it will emerge from marginalization numbers of young people and stop this policy of exclusion created by the prohibition.
Because thousands of young people arrive and the lawbreakers in the adult world so, take the habit of breaking all other laws and would have done well for democracy.
Because prohibition is mobilizing thousands of police and customs, and it has not diminished one iota the number of consumers (trice), and also spend huge amounts of money when that money could be used for prevention more important on hard drugs.
Because drinking alcohol, smoking tobacco, even if it's not fantastic, it's part of the cultural habits of a society, so why not with cannabis?
Since, because of repression, users are obliged (s) to be provided on the black market where other drugs circulate much more difficult to manage. It is time to get out of hiding marijuana in his many (his) followers are no longer in contact with the seller (his) other drugs and promote recreational use and reasonable, this part of a policy risk reduction.

Not to mention the antimicrobial and antibacterial cannabis, or its ability to heal fistulas, corns and fibromatosis when used as a poultice.
However, as with smoking, chronic inhalation of cannabis smoke can induce lung changes. For this, it is preferable to eat in infusion as appropriate.
Health risks
Regarding dependence, THC does not cause physical dependence, whatever its rate of consumption. Cannabis use is not fatal. No deaths due to excessive consumption of the drug used alone was reported. As such, we can consider that it is less dangerous than alcohol and tobacco, although the possibility of lung cancer can not be discounted, long-term, heavy smokers.
Anyway, knowing that there are several million smokers and there are more than 30 years that the phenomenon appeared, we should already have serious cases to see if a tenth of what we heard on cannabis was true. Where are they? How much and how?
The prohibition does not preclude the use of cannabis, but its quality deteriorates, is escalating health hazards, exposing young users to environments in which all drugs mix, but the real danger of cannabis is almost constant exposure to the abuse of power, intolerance and violations of individual liberties that demonstrate the authorities vis-à-vis drug users. But that is for our good ...
The escalation to harder drugs
Contrary to what is suggested, cannabis is not necessarily the first step of a transition to hard drugs. This so-called theory of "escalation" which means that anyone using cannabis, after a moment or longer, more intense satisfaction research. In practice, the risk of using drugs such as heroin, cocaine or crack after smoking hashish is not greater than 5 or 10%. While an estimated 150 000 to 200 000 drug users in France called hard and from 3 to 5,000,000 the number of occasional users of soft drugs, we realize that the transition from one to another is far from inevitable. In fact, the drift has often started with tobacco, alcohol or consumption of psychotropic drugs.
Cannabis offenses
Cannabis offenses are tried by the criminal court, but the crimes are tried cannabis by a Court of departure from the ordinary sitting without a jury popular, and entirely composed of 7 judges. It's in French law or soft drugs or hard drugs, nor tolerance.
The law applies to a joint, a pinch of grass or a single cannabis plant.
The law of 31 December 1970 and the Penal Code provides for, among other crimes, a sentence of 20 years imprisonment and a little more than 7.5 million euro fine anyone who produces or grows cannabis for offenses such as possession, supply, sale or donation, purchase or transport (10 years in prison and a fine of twice the value of seized cannabis) or for the sale or offering for retail (5 years in prison and more than 75 000 euros fine).
The length of the sentence may be reduced by the court or the Court of Assize, the circumstances of the offense and the personality of the accused (e) and set the fine based on its resources and its loads.
However, France signed the Treaty of Rome. That's what it evokes and the European directives regarding the cultivation of hemp. These texts, taken by French law, not only define the maximum permissible THC in hemp (0.3%) but explain how the analysis, and there above, the text is unambiguous: it takes no less than 1000 ( thousand) plants to determine the THC content of a variety!
Thus, it is impossible to prove legally below 1000 feet, the variety of psychoactive hemp is offending!
So there is inconsistency between the 1970 Act and the Treaty of Rome.
The cannabistrots
It is time to decriminalize cannabis use and settlement distribution. In this scheme, the consumer would be free and self-production, agricultural production and commercial distribution governed by a system of controlled appellation and licenses.
Distribution would be made in specific establishments (cannabistrots *) like drinking a particular license. This "license H define the obligations of sellers: no sales to minors, no advertising, no sale of hard liquor or hard drugs, legal sourcing, product warranty, labeling, taxes, etc. .. .
In fact, this legislation does not pose any particular problem, it is simply inspired by the regulations for legal drugs (alcohol, tobacco), and requires a political decision.
So ladies and gentlemen policies, what do you expect?
* The cannabistrot is the word used by militants IARC (Collective for Research and Information cannabis) and is the equivalent of coffeeshops.
The cannabistrot cannabis is that the wine bar is on the vine.
