THE EDITOR: Smoking marijuana is reportedly a pleasurable
experience. You feel euphoric.
You can take on all the difficulties in
the world. Is this the reason that marijuana is constantly being
smuggled into the prisons? To ease the pain of being incarcerated?
Some people are known to become violent, depressed, aggressive when
they smoke marijuana. Is it possible that the long-term use of marijuana
can alter a society? Is marijuana use part of the reason for the crime
upsurge in TT?
Are we contaminated by overuse of ganja? Why the upsurge in crime?
The short-tempered behaviour? The domestic violence? The murder and
mayhem? Is marijuana now part of our DNA?
Will we have an upsurge in accidental deaths because of diminished
responsibility? Marijuana is a drug. How will the police measure
overuse?
Ask yourself this: if you cannot relax and feel good without smoking
marijuana, are you addicted?
Are people who use marijuana as part of
their religion exempt from police intervention if they become euphoric?
Will marijuana be sold with the usual label warning: Smoking can be
injurious to health?
Will marijuana be legally available to children
under age 18?
