 NO LIMIT SET ON CANNABIS

New guidelines telling police officers how to deal with cannabis users do not include a maximum "personal use" limit, it has emerged.
The guidelines, issued by police chiefs, are a response to the reclassification of cannabis by Home Secretary David Blunkett.
A separate document stated that setting a limit for personal use would lead to dealers carrying an amount just under the limit.
It also mentioned the difficulties for officers estimating weights or quantities on the street.
But the latest guidance by the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) does set out when officers should arrest people using the drug.
ACPO says possession of cannabis would "ordinarily not be an arrestable offence".
Nonetheless it says there are instances when an arrest should be made such as when people smoke cannabis in public.
Those caught using the drug in front of children or creating a "fear of public disorder" should also be detained, say the guidelines.
Mr Blunkett decided to downgrade the drug from Class B to Class C to free police time in the war against Class A drugs, including heroin and crack.
The reclassification was welcomed by those campaigning for a more liberal attitude to cannabis use.

Its good to see any place be sensible. The US will probably be last to change its laws. We made such a big deal about how horrible it was and pushed our views on the world. We have to be forced to change.
Kinda how when if a little kid thinks hes right about something and makes a big deal about it even if he realizes he's wrong he wont admit it w/o pressure.
ex:
I dont like carrots! I've tryed them before I know I dont like them blah blah blah.
Just try a little pieve and I'll leave you alone....
*takes a bite; tastes alright* Yuck! *spits it out*
Even if they like the taste they wont go back and eat it if anyone is watching.
I'm not hungry!
Please eat...
No!
Fine, Goodnight.
Five minutes later they sneek in to get food
