| Message | "Cannabis; it brings no harm to the human body and is much more healthier than smoking or even drinking" That is quite frankly BS. I have friends who smoke cannabis all the time, they went from bright people to retards, they do not speak clearly, are slow of thought and just not what they used to be. |

| Message | The Study Group of the RSDP will look into this proposition, however we do not have a formal stance yet. |

| Message | That's strange. I have a lot of friends that smoke Cannabis and they are healty young people. On the other hand, I have friends that drink a little bit too much and they are really retarding, while the smokers kill themselves, speaking about long terms. |

| Message | "Suffice to say that the findings of the most recent authoritative review (9) concluded that cannabis use has not been found to produce health effects any more harmful than that of legal drugs such as alcohol and tobacco and certainly not compared to crack or heroin" http://www.drugscope.org.uk/druginfo/evidence-select/cannabislegislative.htm |

| Date | 13:20:14, June 30, 2005 CET | From | Libertarian Alcoholic Par-tay | To | Debating the Cannabis act |
| Message | In fact, we support going even further and legalising all currently illegal substances. |
| Date | 13:27:21, June 30, 2005 CET | From | New Democracy | To | Debating the Cannabis act |
| Message | Against. This is unnaceptable. Drugs are evil, and thus this bill has our strong opposition. |
| Date | 15:35:15, June 30, 2005 CET | From | RSDP - Democratic Front | To | Debating the Cannabis act |
| Message | We have decided to vote in favour of this bill on the condition that the excessive use of cannabis, to the extent that it leads to abusive behaviour, will be punished. |
