Difference? Healthcare and treatment of mental illness. Canada, Amsterdam, Portugal, Mexico, South Africa and Thailand all have legal weed consumption. The only reversal is coming from Thailand and that’s only cos they don’t want a “reputation for being a druggie country”. I think it will be re-legalised when they discover it hits their tourism and it’s impossible to police. Germany is also working hard to legalise weed within the EU so it the entire EU could lose the criminalisation in the next decade.
Portland, Oregon decriminalised everything then provided no help for addicts. That’s an American problem I’d like to think we wouldn’t suffer from if we have the NHS and more compassion.
I think we’ll decriminilise it eventually but we’ll be one of the last countries to do it (50yrs+). We won’t do it under Starmers Labour or current Tories.
Whilst I like to think that we would provide better support, I still think that Portland will be used as a stick to delay any sort of reform.
We also have to understand what is happening there, in typical American fashion once it because available they started to crank up the levels to the point where they are seeing mental health issues from marijuana consumption levels that no one else gets.
