thewest.com.au — Jamaica is considering the legalisation of marijuana, a drug revered by members of the island's large Rastafarian population who say smoking it is part of their religion.

      • WaltDismal, on 03/04/2008, -3/+9"Cannabis"? OHHHH. I thought they said "cannibals". Now it makes a lot more sense.
        • divrekku, on 03/04/2008, -1/+9I thought cannabis was already legal in Jamaica.... ah well. Its closer then Amsterdam.
    • geekchic, on 03/04/2008, -3/+20The USA will probably do a "cuba" and blockade the country in retailiation for this
      • bthug7, on 03/04/2008, -0/+7Depends on who we elect, doubtful either way though.
      • aidave, on 03/04/2008, -5/+31Who cares. I hope every country legalizes cannabis, and the US "blockades" them all. America, land of the caged.
    • MCCULLAH, on 03/04/2008, -3/+1uhh all the states where its become decriminalized? or the countless counties in states across the country?
    • OverkillTASF, on 03/04/2008, -5/+11It may be legal for spring break, but then you get back and drug tested a month later by your employer and lose your damn job. ARGH. Stupid.
      • MalenfantX, on 03/05/2008, -2/+1If you're willing to work for assholes. I certainly wouldn't work for a company like that.
        • Muncher, on 03/05/2008, -1/+5You're not employed, are you?
        • ZxEfR, on 03/05/2008, -1/+2If only everyone thought as we do....here's dreaming of the day when people learn to empower themselves...
        • compdude32, on 03/05/2008, -2/+2Clearly you don't have a job, but then again most potheads don't become productive members of society.
          • supermanred, on 03/06/2008, -0/+2They are your Presidents, your bosses, your overlords.

            I mean, you clearly must be reading the wrong newspapers. Read a book, you might learn something.

            Meanwhile your President is smoking pot and snorting coke in the White House.
          • ZxEfR, on 03/06/2008, -0/+1I've had to work with so many people like you....I'm so tired of self righteous scum such as yourself.....but all I have to do is think about how people like you end up and then I'm happy again :O)

    • mrloco, on 03/05/2008, -3/+5Don't have to be dread to be rasta.
      • cosmikdebris, on 03/05/2008, -0/+8The wearing of dreadlocks is very closely associated with the movement, though not universal among, or exclusive to, its adherents. Rastas believe dreadlocks to be supported by Leviticus 21:5 ("They shall not make baldness upon their head, neither shall they shave off the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in the flesh.") and the Nazirite vow in Numbers 6:5 ("All the days of the vow of his separation there shall no razor come upon his head: until the days be fulfilled, in the which he separateth himself unto the LORD, he shall be holy, and shall let the locks of the hair of his head grow.")
      • burnblue, on 03/05/2008, -0/+1It's ok mrloco, he just doesn't listen to Morgan Heritage
  • orlando37, on 03/04/2008, -3/+171hahahaha, I always thought is was legal there. I guess it was a good thing I did not get caught when I was there last.
    • fitqueenb, on 03/04/2008, -3/+11figure it is no worse than alcohol....
      • chocolatespoon, on 03/05/2008, -0/+6well, look at drunk drivers vs stoned drivers. i vote for weed.
        • coyote1284, on 03/05/2008, -0/+14Do you know how to tell a drunk driver from a stoned driver?
          The drunk driver will see the stop sign, aim to hit it, and keep driving, if possible.
          The stoned driver will see the stop sign, stop 10 yards from the stop line, and wait for the sign to turn green.
    • thetanman, on 03/05/2008, -0/+11Yeah if you've ever been it's pretty difficult to tell it's illegal.
    • HaoTian, on 03/05/2008, -5/+5There is no place in the world that cannabis is legal.
      And THAT is a crime.
      • spawesume, on 03/05/2008, -0/+7Hey guys! The Netherlands just legalized it!
        • HaoTian, on 03/05/2008, -1/+1Uh... what? Link please.
          Until now, I believed that it was merely decriminalized and the sale of small supplies were tolerated by police... but definitely NOT legal.
        • myak, on 03/05/2008, -0/+1@HaoTian
          Uh... that. It's been a couple of years since The Netherlands legalized it.
          Oh well, I shouldn't expect US citizen to know anything about the world I suppose.
          • HaoTian, on 03/05/2008, -1/+0It is NOT legal in the Netherlands. And I'm not a US citizen, you ***** wank.
            It's DECRIMINALIZED and TOLERATED. That is NOT legal.
          • myak, on 03/06/2008, -0/+1It is legal. You can fight over words if you want to, the fact is that the government allows it and you will not get charged for using or possessing some for personal use. The legal status is a bit cloudy (I suppose you base your knowledge on Wikipedia so you'd want me to admit it) but you won't see it on the streets.

            And I'm truly sorry (no sarcasm) for calling you a US citizen, your profile clearly states that you're Canadian; my bad.
          • HaoTian, on 03/06/2008, -1/+0I've never looked up cannabis' status on Wikipedia. I've been a member of the movement to get it legalized here in Canada for many years. In the course of my studies I've checked the legal status of it in many different countries. You're still missing the difference between legalization and decriminalization, but if you choose to remain ignorant, who am I to attempt to educate you?
      • goomba323, on 03/05/2008, -0/+2uhhh....Amsterdam? They sell it in shops, all different types of flavors, and also have little pot bakeries, where you can get pot brownies, cookies, or cupcakes.
        • HaoTian, on 03/05/2008, -1/+0Not legal there. Look it up.
          DECRIMINALIZED does NOT mean legal.
          • goomba323, on 03/05/2008, -0/+1I'm pretty sure I have seen pictures of my friends who have visited where they were smoking joints inside of a restaurant.
          • supermanred, on 03/06/2008, -0/+1Just means you cant smoke it anywhere you want and you might get a fine if you do. Sort of like smoking or alcohol in north america.

            That doesnt make it illegal.

            It is LEGAL to smoke pot in Amsterdam cafes and in the privacy of your own home, and such.

            DECRIMINALIZED DOES mean legal.

            If it doesnt, then Alcohol and Cigarettes are illegal in Canada too.
        • legalizeitmon, on 03/05/2008, -0/+0Practically legal though. You should go sometime
    • Chigga75, on 03/05/2008, -0/+1Seems like more of a formality than anything else if they're gonna legalize it.
  • canewediggit, on 03/04/2008, -23/+26obligatory tosh lyric; legaliiiiiiiiiiize it, and don't criticize it. legaliiiiiize it, yeaaaaaaah, yeaaaaaaah, and i will advertise it.
    • Neoanarchist, on 03/04/2008, -3/+3I ***** love that song :D Sublime's cover of it is the ***** too.
    • repmekevets, on 03/04/2008, -1/+2why are you getting buried? no peter tosh fans on digg?
  • MakiMaki, on 03/04/2008, -9/+83Whoa.... it's not yet legal?
    • Neoanarchist, on 03/04/2008, -0/+20Lmao thats the first thing I thought.
    • chadillak, on 03/04/2008, -3/+21It's not legal there yet because Jamaica considers legalising cannabis... then forgets what they were considering.
    • orph3us, on 03/05/2008, -0/+9Not legal because of pressure from the US!! We are so cool... we threaten anybody that legalizes it with economic sanctions.... what great bullys we are
  • h0ser, on 03/04/2008, -11/+51i love marijunaa
  • DeskFlyer, on 03/04/2008, -3/+301In other news, cannabis is illegal in Jamaica.
    • Trevcal123, on 03/04/2008, -10/+5Best response of them all...

    • seanc6610, on 03/05/2008, -0/+6I wish there was a way to "favorite" comments like you can with a story, cause the +1 just doesn't give this one justice.
  • NikoKun, on 03/04/2008, -1/+65Well I sure hope they do... They shouldn't let the US boss them around!
    Especially on issues where they can have smarter policies than ours. Ending Marijuana prohibition is a Smart policy!
  • suzywang3000, on 03/04/2008, -2/+49it's part of my religion too.
  • kemp34, on 03/04/2008, -3/+130Marijuana prohibition is just plain stupid.
    • battletrax, on 03/05/2008, -9/+1Yeah man, they must be smoking Marijuana.
      Ive seen what it did to my friends. I hate it.
      • sodade, on 03/05/2008, -0/+5It is the fault of people like you (and all the people old enough to have watched refer madness before we all realized what a joke it was) that marijuana is still illegal. People who ***** up their lives with one drug are just as likely to do it with another. All in all, it is pretty hard to ***** up your life with MJ unless it is due to the illegality of the drug.
    • Marijuana, on 03/05/2008, -0/+1Legalization is overdo.
  • thechr0nic, on 03/04/2008, -0/+38call be biased, but I think anything aside from legalization, is a mistake.
    I seem to remember prohibition not going so well the first time around.

    on a side note, I got married in Jamaica about 2 or 3 years ago. The taxi driver was kind enough to stop to see the Rasta-man on the way to the resort. We had so much weed and hash that we had to throw away some of it because we couldn't finish it all in a week (didn't feel like smuggling the rest home on the airlplane), and I had friends and family helping me :)
    It was not legal at the time (persay) you couldnt just smoke it out the the open, but if you kept it to yourself and did it in private, they never bother you.
    • evilpoptart, on 03/04/2008, -0/+8i would take the approach we took to alcohol, high taxes and state control. (we have ABC stores here, its really lame)
      • FaithclubDotNet, on 03/04/2008, -12/+2Taxes? Are you kidding? Control? Heh. You can't grow Coors light in your back yard. You have to be joking. Thats why I am digging you up.
    • bthug7, on 03/04/2008, -1/+14Ha your wedding sounded successful
      • OverkillTASF, on 03/04/2008, -0/+43Except he can't remember if it was 2 or 3 years ago.
    • Binksy2k, on 03/04/2008, -1/+2Well, there is a "middle path"; in fact, Canada very nearly went this way (and may still go this way in the future): decriminalization.
      Treat weed the same way you treat someone speeding in a car - you'll ticket them if you see them, and you'll keep things more or less under control; but you won't be throwing kids into prison because they were caught with a joint in highschool.
      Under the proposed legislation, trafficking would still be treated as a crime, as would possession of more serious drugs.
      As I heard it, US pressure was a major factor in stopping the legislation. They were going to nail us to the wall with regard to trade and boarder crossings.
      • richardiscool, on 03/04/2008, -0/+1You can't just switch out of your analogy like that!
    • DeadBabyFloat, on 03/04/2008, -0/+12Don't let your wife catch you saying 2 OR 3 years...
    • buddypriefert, on 03/04/2008, -11/+2You guys will never amount to anything but wasting your time whining about why you hate your country and how the government's role is not to interferre with pot heads, nor thugs, but instead to give you free health care and other hand outs. You preach 'freedom of thought" and "tolerance" but only when it agrees with you. I see your kind. Thank goodness you are a minority (proof as to why pot is not legal in the USA).
      • evilpoptart, on 03/05/2008, -0/+3pot isnt legal because of racism, and there wouldnt be thugs involved if it was legal, also if something is ILegal it usually is more of a sign of intolerance on the part of the government. also, your defending the gov't, WTF?!?!
        • compdude32, on 03/05/2008, -1/+0Typical pot head response. Because someone is against something your for they are not tolerant? The fact that your here flameing his opinion shows your intolerance though. Go ahead and light up another joint, I don't think you have any brain cells left for it to kill.
  • syroncoda, on 03/04/2008, -2/+63its about time. legalizing it will do wonders for its tourism based economy. it makes financial sense.
    • ajnininja, on 03/04/2008, -1/+4That was my very first thought.
      • JustFender, on 03/04/2008, -1/+4"if you're in marketing or advertising, kill yourself"
    • joebaloney, on 03/05/2008, -0/+4Unless they get the "Cuba treatment" which is not unlikely.
    • 35263526, on 03/05/2008, -0/+5Questionable. The U.S. actively uses its significant power to financially bully non-prohibitionist nations; that's one of the most significant reasons even the Netherlands hasn't legalized, but merely decriminalized.
  • StanleyKoolPrik, on 03/04/2008, -2/+42In related news, Germany is considering legalizing lederhosen.
  • evilpoptart, on 03/04/2008, -0/+16man, it might as well be legal there it almost falls out of the sky.

    • aidave, on 03/04/2008, -0/+19Technically, "crime" would go down if legalized. You fail.
    • Mufonix, on 03/04/2008, -3/+1The Jamaican marijuana black market is currently at the center of a 'drugs for weapons' trade with T&T. Increasing the production of Marijuana may actually increase the current import of weapons. With the highest murder rate-per-capita in the world, Jamaica does not need more weapons.
      • evilpoptart, on 03/05/2008, -1/+2it would not be a black market if it was legal.
        • Mufonix, on 03/05/2008, -0/+1Take some time to think before speaking. Legalizing marijuana here in Jamaica would not make it legal in Haiti or T&T or wherever they are trading pot for weapons. If you increase the output of marijuana here, you increase the amount that can flood into the foreign black markets and in doing so, increase the amount of weapons that are traded back to Jamaica.
          • compdude32, on 03/05/2008, -0/+0Wait, your asking a pot head to think? you should know that is not possible.
    • IncogMosqui, on 03/04/2008, -2/+2I dunno about anybody else here, but when I smoked, I didn't feel like getting up to change the channel. I don't have the energy to do anything else let alone commit a crime..

      • aidave, on 03/04/2008, -1/+16Yeah, cuz its such a great thing America has done for the world, a war on plants. Couldn't be anything implausible about that.

        *head explodes*
        • bullcutter, on 03/04/2008, -6/+1the US is not with-holding aid or imposing sanctions on Jamaica, that is what is implausable. this person is just ripping on the U.S. because it is a popular thing to do was my point.

          i am a fan of thcs and a true believer in their powers, but i also understand MJ is not good for the "prime directive" of America (as Bill Maher likes to put it) -- it doesn't do much for a classic work ethic, and while some individuals owe their creative successes or their ability to cope with stress to it, many more owe their utter inability to function in society to it, as well.
          • Ansible, on 03/05/2008, -0/+1No not ripping on the US, ripping on the 'war on drugs', which has a bureaucracy and allied special interests with a ton of momentum and influence. Its a cash cow like the DOD, and it is constantly working to undermine our individual rights. Throw in the privatized for-profit prison system along with the law enforcement and you're talking serious money. If the drug war is ever called off there will be some big losers economically, and these interests will call for bullying countries that go against the agenda of ripping us all off paying for another unwinnable war.
        • sodade, on 03/05/2008, -1/+2Umm - you don't think that the US has pushed hard to influence other countries to follow our insane drug laws? WTFever man. Also, just because your personal experience with potheads leads you to your negative conclusions doesn't mean that you are right. Smoking pot motivates the hell out of me and I am pretty high up the corporate ladder of success. I know a lot of people like me. You don't.
          • bullcutter, on 03/05/2008, -1/+2no, i didn't say that at all. i didn't say any of those things, you are taking my point way out of context because you perceived that i said something bad about MJ and are letting your emotions get the best of you.

            you are missing the point that MOST THC inhalers AREN'T LIKE YOU, or the people you know! MOST PEOPLE AREN'T motivated by pot, as a matter of fact the exact opposite is true, and if you can't wrap your brain around this FACT its only because you don't want to.

          • wishninja, on 03/05/2008, -0/+1@bullcutter that is all a man's life is worth to you how much money they make? How much they have? Let me tell you what all of that isn't worth ***** man. The way a man lives his life, understands his own nature and learns to respect it is worth so much more. You think you are so high up on your damn horse looking down on the people judging them, you are wasting your life doing that. Go run your own life, man, and leave the people out of your sight and out of your thoughts then they will be much better off.

            Pot is not ***** motivation it is only a state of being high. Going with the flow is not lazy. It is motivation for motivation's sake that is what is all wrong with society today.
          • 40hands, on 03/05/2008, -0/+1Ballcutter. Your argument is pure conjecture. I half expected you to quote an Anti-Drug commercial as your source.
  • SevenTwo, on 03/04/2008, -3/+9Yah mon'
  • MCCULLAH, on 03/04/2008, -2/+10what? its considered illegal? and i live here....
    • JustFender, on 03/04/2008, -1/+1by here do you mean jamaica or is it some kind of philosophical statement about you being a nomad...or have i had a little too much to smoke
  • FcukAllYall, on 03/04/2008, -5/+2as much as they smoke, I thought it was already legal....went there on a vacation once with my boys and they were smokin like they were cigarettes..
  • dudefaceguyman, on 03/04/2008, -2/+20I read this thinking they legalized cannibalism.

    Pot makes soooo much more sense.
    • Jus2Gud, on 03/04/2008, -0/+5Were you high at the time?
    • evilpoptart, on 03/05/2008, -0/+2wait, cannibalism is illegal? shiiiiiiiiiit....
  • Mufonix, on 03/04/2008, -2/+7It may as well be considered legal. I live in Jamaica and though I don't smoke, you would have to be stupid not to be able to find some within 10 minutes of looking.

  • leffunov, on 03/04/2008, -9/+3Since when is considering an idea newsworthy?
  • robbob, on 03/04/2008, -0/+22This would make it safer for tourists, who expect it to be part of the scenery, able to score without dealing with shady thugs.

    Also, imagine a tour of a harvesting field---I'd buy that for a dollar!
  • 955701, on 03/04/2008, -5/+2That rustling you hear is the sound of hundreds of thousands of people in the US packing their bags for the last time.
    • sodade, on 03/05/2008, -0/+1digg it down all you like, but I'll ***** retire there and take my tax payments with me.
  • BSDaemon, on 03/04/2008, -1/+7Legalize or decriminalize? Big difference, and often confused (as with the same topic in Canada).
  • Jiyoui, on 03/04/2008, -2/+5Wait wait....

    It wasn't legal there already?
  • indiansfred, on 03/04/2008, -2/+32If you can't get pot in Jamaica you're retarded. It's EVERYWHERE. From the baggage handler when I stepped off the plane to even the tennis pro at my hotel was offering me it - AND I WAS A TEENAGER. Alert to authorities - POT IS EVERYWHERE and the only people in jail must have been trying to sell it to a judge...IN THE COURTROOM ...DURING A TRIAL...WHILE UNDER OATH....WHILE SOME "MORAL" TV REPORTER WAS PRESENT.
    • firesphotons, on 03/05/2008, -0/+3A guy in a canoe was trying to sell it while we were snorkeling! This begs the question how the hell do they have any kind of "US anti drug" certification? Everyone on that island is stoned...
  • TwoLOUD, on 03/04/2008, -1/+25Dugg..just cause its Jamaica.

    For the one who said crime would increase? Shut the ***** up..you dont know *****, get educated and come back with a plausible argument.
  • chewties, on 03/04/2008, -1/+12fyi, shrooms are already legal in jamaica
  • ridgelawrence, on 03/04/2008, -1/+13Last summer when I got off the plane in Jamaica, I got asked 2 times IN THE AIRPORT to buy weed. Then when we got in the bus the bus driver offered to smoke us out.

    It's basically legal, ill say.

    If you get caught, just bribe the police officer with like 100$, they will most likely take it.

  • captaindigger, on 03/04/2008, -2/+8I am so sick of the US government sticking its nose in other countries affairs. Government of the USA stay the ***** out of everyones business we don't give a ***** if you have your heads stuck your ass when it comes to Marijuana.
    • battletrax, on 03/05/2008, -4/+1If you weren't on Marijuana you could do something about it.
  • fsamuels, on 03/04/2008, -0/+21Concerning a previous legalization law... (from the article) "But lawmakers never acted, saying legalisation might entail loss of their country's US anti-drug certification. Countries that lose it face economic sanctions."

    That is the saddest part of the article to me. Why are we (the US) imposing our terrible policies on the rest of the world and why are we financially penalizing countries for decisions we should have no say over? That is just horrible.
  • SanFranMan, on 03/04/2008, -1/+2Just how many people are in a Jamaican jail for having weed?

      • jm4847, on 03/05/2008, -0/+1It isn't in Holland. There's even gay marriage there. Granted I didn't know that about Jamaica.

    • scamper22, on 03/04/2008, -1/+1and it''s jamaica's right to somehow get access to US foreign aid?
      • orph3us, on 03/05/2008, -0/+4Maybe not, but we shouldn't hold countries hostage for making things like this legal.
  • CrimsonFate, on 03/04/2008, -4/+30The Irish consider legalizing potatos.
