What the petition asks
The laws are illegal, they are harmful, they destroy lives and cause misery. This is not a request to legalize sale,use,culture of cannabis, I would like its position to be a medicinal herb which is regulated in sales but freely accessible to all members of the public. As in pre-drug Laws 1925.
Parents are jailed, children are taken from their families and placed in care, young people are made criminals because of a plant! Something that is safer than alcohol and any other"drug".More people die from overdose of Asprin in just 1 month than has ever been associated to cannabis.
I put it to you Mr cameron sir,that the laws on cannabis are illegal,they are harmful to society,they destroy lives of families nationwide and cause misery for users and their families,recreational and medical.
