<<<<<<<<<< Cannabis is class B now which could be criminal offences >>>>>>>>>>

Sorry to rant on even more but just realised I forgot to say that cannabis should also not be included in the groups of drugs that you listed to try and escape reality. People smoke cannabis for two reasons:  
1: It is a very good social drug. It makes you laugh, it makes you talk about stupid yet interesting things and it really makes you appreciate spending times with your friends. (I find). Again, this is not really that much different to alchohol (except it doesn't make you violent...)
2: It is a great relaxant. This is primarily what I use it for. I personally have not found a better way to relax after a hard days work than to light up a joint. A lot of people come home and watch TV to relax them, that's fine but it's not for me. I hate television and I'd rather not have my mind polluted by it. I just don't understand why people are so quick to criticise lifestyles like mine when in reality they are very similar to everyone elses: we just use different methods. Yes I'm aware that by smoking cannabis I'm damaging my lungs and no i don't think i'm going to go scitzhophrenic because of it but I'm also aware that watching mindless soaps on television hinders the imagination, dulls the mind and creates a fantasy world around the watchers as much as drugs do.

is equally famous for the relaxed attitude towards marijuana as it is for tulips, canals and Van Gogh; and the Cannabis Cup is a celebration of the narcotic that attracts many high-minded tourists who want to partake openly in its appreciation. High Times Magazine sponsors the event and gathers all the best spliff around to sample and ultimately be awarded with the prestigious Cannabis Cup. The event is steadily increasing in popularity and attracts thousands of curious spectators each year who can purchase seeds and winning weed throughout the festival. However it is not all about getting high, as promoters also try and persuade visitors to the global benefits of the hemp industry.

Court's ruling in Ashcroft v. Raich could come down. The current mood of uncertainty in the medical cannabis industry can be inferred from the following, which was written by an attorney who knows what s/he's talking about:

I recommend to anyone who is currently considering starting, investing money in, or renting to a medical marijuana dispensary or garden -- that they wait to see what happens in Ashcroft v. Raich before taking another step. I think municipalities and other public entities should be just as concerned as private citizens. The feds certainly didn't spare West Hollywood.

I, personally feel right now that Raich might just go the right way -- but I might be crazy. Because nobody knows what will happen, existing MMJ facilities should be setting up contingency plans in case Raich goes the wrong way. Given the behavior of the people in control of this country, I wouldn't put it past the Drug Warriors to go ape shit tearing down the medical marijuana community -- especially in the blue states, and especially in California -- if the Raich decision gives them the power. If they have the option of prosecuting everybody, they will have more than their fill, and will concentrate on some and leave others and their assets untouched. To decrease their chances of being targeted for forfeiture and criminal prosecution, any entity engaged in the legitimate cultivation or dispensing of medical marijuana should make sure their corporate formalities and books are in order, annual reports are filed, taxes are filed and paid, etc. Patients and caregivers should make sure the doctor's recommendations are all current. They should back up the computer and files and storing the backups off site in a safe place.

The same recommendations I made above would also be crucial if Raich goes the right way. If we prevail on our Commerce Clause argument, I believe the conduct would have to be legal under state law in order for the exemption from federal jurisdiction to apply. Any clubs that open up without licenses, and without complying with the record-keeping formalities of state law -- are no more protected from prosecution than a drug dealer on the street corner.

PS: People shouldn't start moving money out of bank accounts or hiding assets to try to keep them from being seized. That only makes things worse -- and could result in money laundering charges. There are no magic bullets -- such as trusts, offshore accounts, etc. -- that will prevent forfeiture of assets. Those devices actually make it harder to defend the case, and may be construed as money laundering, resulting in criminal charges. It's best to conduct your affairs as any other legitimate business would do.

I live in Sheffield, and I would like to start to challenge the local government on their enforcement of marijuana laws as anything other that a misdemeanor. I believe that possession of small amount of marijuana should not be punishable by jail time and should only be a misdemeanor offense. I have no idea about how to even begin this project. Even the most basic information would help me at this point.
