Belgians Can Grow Cannabis Legally - Trekt Uw Plant
http://pr.cannazine.co.uk : Trekt Uw Plant, Cannabis Social Club in Antwerpen, Belgium plans a new action on the Worldwide Marijuana March Day, 3 May 2008, on Vrijdagmarkt, Antwerpen.
In January 2005, a ministerial decree was signed by the Belgian Minister of Justice and the 5 main Attorneys General, in which the possession of max. 3 gram or 1 female cannabis plant was declared a "non-persecutable offense."
In December 2006, Trekt Uw Plant presented the first collective cannabis plantation in Belgium, based on the principle of one member one plant.
The legal authorities stopped this plantation, and we are currently involved a legal procedure to obtain our right.
However we are still allowed to help our members (who should be adult, living in Belgium, aware of the risks of cannabis use and who should have joined the organisation voluntarily) to grow their one cannabis plant...
So we are calling on all those who wish to consume cannabis and are tired of beinng dependent on the illegal circuit to join us, on 3 May on Vrijdagmarkt in Antwerpen..

To simplify matters even further, if you live in Zeebrugge, Belgium, you are allowed to grow one cannabis plant for personal consumption. But if you live 40 miles due-North of Zeebrugge, in Ramsgate England, that same single plant brings with it the threat of arrest, a an appearance in court and a criminal record? So how does THAT work?
Have your say What do you think? Should cannabis be allowed for recreational/medical purposes here in the UK? If so why do you think its not allowed? Is it as the government says? A question of public health?
Or is there perhaps another, hidden agenda which the government are working to?
