blobloblob Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Maybe a few more of these will come back? Britain's last original temperance bar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Hovis Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 They are controlled though. You have to be licensed to sell them and over a certain age, and in the case of alcohol not already intoxicated, in order to buy them. And they are heavily taxed; pretty much the situation many want for cannabis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1888 Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 They are controlled though. . And they are heavily taxed; pretty much the situation many want for cannabis. I estimate its a £100m wk turnover minimum in the UK legalised it becomes seperated from A class drugs by eliminating street dealers in cannabis legalised outlets can control the level of THC in its products I've been toking for 30 yrs and non superskunk varieties are fine by me court /prison/police/social costs reduced massively approx 3-5 million people are no longer considered criminals by the state a sense of freedom/ liberalism bestowed on the people jobs created in the growing and selling lots of taxes raised tourism up (the Dam effect) bringing in foreign currencies the problem is in the 1st sentence thats £100m turnover currently in the hands of some righty dodgy geezers innit If the Govt ever grow some bolloks and launch a takeover bid we could all be quids in time to grow some balls Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uptherebels Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 so much in fact that our governments still make criminals out of people who enjoy the safest intoxicant there is. Love ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest X-QUORK Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Love ? That kind of romantic comment might impress the HPC ladies, but I'm not in the slightest bit interested. No matter how Roxy Music might twist the truth, love is not a drug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dubai Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Tobacco, im not surprised at. But alcohol? These leftists simply cannot accept that some people are simply 'bad apples' can they? Why tobacco and not alcohol? I'm well aware of the arguments about second hand smoke etc., but is that as harmful as being glassed in the face by the local pisshead for looking at him for a microsecond??

Guest happy?

Damned socialists always trying to control everything you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
