This old chestnut is getting more media scutiny. What are the Stones current views, do they have any?
Class B or retain as Class C or legalise ? (the latter option will never happen, of course)

"THE" law of course doesn't exist... Who's law do you mean?
In the Netherlands we do not have class C or B crimes, and cannabis is still legal, to a certain limit. But it is a very complicated and contradictive construction between using, owning, dealing and production. Besides, there is use for 'recreational' purposes and there is use on medical indication.
One thing is thereby for certain: you do not mean Dutch law when you say THE law... ;-)

In the UK there seems to be a difference of opinion between the law makers (ie the politicians) some of whom (or at leat the PM)favour a reclassification to Class B and the health professionals whose view is that Class C is more appropriate.
The people who have to deal with the "law breakers", that is the Police seem to favour a return to Class B.

My brothers addicted. Its a vile drug. Those dealing should be clamped down on more. Definitely should be upgraded to class A imo. The popular 'skunk' is very different to the weed variety that was popular amoungst circles in the 1960's.

Addicted to pot: the habit (being high) can be addictive as a means to leave reality. I can imagine that the need to deny reality is the other serious problem Matthijs points at?

Addicted? To pot? That's virtually impossible. If you smoke too much pot you have a serious problem elsewhere -pot is never the cause.
I've smoked for years, but the last five or so years I've found Dutch pot to be far too strong. I mean, a couple of drags and you're wasted for three hours. That's not my cup of tea.

Frankly? It's totally unknown in Holland. If you smoke too much Hash/Marijuana all that happens is that you fall over and wake up a couple hours later. No "psycosis" or whatever.
