Nepal

Medical Marijuana have been legal in Nepal for ever, please update your article — Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.44.113.19 (talk) 07:55, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

Every source I've looked as says cannabis was banned in Nepal in the 1970s. Do you have any source that says otherwise? Just becaese people use it doesn't mean it's legal. Goonsquad LCpl Mulvaney (talk) 17:10, 30 June 2018 (UTC)

Brazil Section

The section that talks about the legality of cannabis in Brazil doesn't really talk about legality. I believe that it should be completely rewritten, since it only says about how the brazilian society sees cannabis users, among other few minor things. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.89.240.216 (talk) 04:26, 20 June 2012 (UTC)

I agree with above. The Brazil section is a subjective view on the matter in favor of legalization rather than an explanation of the legal status of cannabis in the country, probably written by a marijuana supporter. Unlike what's written, according to a survey made by Unifest in 149 brazilian cities, 75% of the population is against legalization<ref>http://www.cpadnews.com.br/integra.php?s=6&i=13895</ref> and marijuana isn't decriminalized here, it should be orange on the map. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yon Dourado (talk • contribs) 18:44, 21 August 2012 (UTC)

Edit regarding Belgium

I usually don't just go ahead and edit introductions to articles without having opened a discussion, but I just took out Belgium from the list of countries that have legalized medical marijuana. In Belgium, there is no way for patients to legally buy marijuana or for doctors to prescribe it. The only exception would be if a Belgian doctor writes a prescription for medical marijuana that can be used in a Dutch pharmacy. However, medical marijuana obtained in the Netherlands cannot be legally imported to Belgium by Belgian residents. C.d.rose (talk) 17:10, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

USA - Barak Obama & all but decriminalized marijuana

The article is bias. Its tone is that Obama Administration has become more lenient in the way the Federal Government has pursued illegal Marijuana. Per this article http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2012/05/03/pelosi-condemns-obamas-continued-raids-on-marijuana-dispensaries/ (and many others) there has been a notable uptick in raids on Marijuana dispensaries under the Obama administration. He has also received criticism from his own party on the matter. While what is written about Obama in the existing article is not false as it is a collection of statements made about Obama, it does not paint an accurate or realistic picture of the current situation under his administration. It can even be said that it is hypocritical that a man who once smoked Marijuana now overseas an Agency who jails people for doing it. I leave you with quotes:

Since President Barack Obama took office, “more than 200″ state-approved medical marijuana facilities have been raided, according to Kris Hermes, spokesperson for Americans for Safe Access (ASA), who spoke to Raw Story on Thursday.

“That exceeds the number of raids his predecessor, George W. Bush, oversaw during his entire eight years in office,” he said.

The startling statistic wasn’t lost on Pelosi either, whose statement comes just days after she received a petition by marijuana patients in her district.

“I have strong concerns about the recent actions by the federal government that threaten the safe access of medicinal marijuana to alleviate the suffering of patients in California, and undermine a policy that has been in place under which the federal government did not pursue individuals whose actions complied with state laws providing for medicinal marijuana,” she said. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.25.95.5 (talk) 13:42, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

Edit request on 27 May 2012


In the subject of Spain's legality of cannabis, the text presented is originally copied from this site:


http://formenteraganja.blogspot.com/p/faq.html


It is my understanding that the text taken from this page, represents a biased stand, as to how it is represented at wikipedia now:


From wikipedia:


"In Spain the possession and use of cannabis in public places is classed as a misdemeanour under public health laws and is punishable by fines and confiscation. Trafficking is a criminal offense. One can be denounced for doing so by neighbors or ill-wishers, and the burden is then effectively on the user or grower to prove that the material is for personal use only."


While the original content has more information to offer:


"In Spain the possession and use of cannabis in public places is classed as a misdemeanor under public health laws and is punishable by fines and confiscation. Trafficking is a criminal offense. However, the right to consume marijuana and grow plants for personal consumption in one's private property is protected under the Spanish constitution. In practice one can still be denounced for doing so by neighbors or ill-wishers, and the burden is then effectively on the user or grower to prove that the material is for personal use only."


While there is no reference to this information, it correlates to the information presented in a similar wikipedia article:


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_cannabis_by_country


In concerning Spain:


"Buying and selling cannabis is a criminal offence punishable by law. Possession and consumption at a public place constitutes a misdemeanour and is penalized with a fine and confiscation. Growing the plant on private property for personal use, and consumption by adults in a private space is a constitutional right and hence not illegal."


The main focus of the edit, is to provide information about the constitutional right, which is excluded, maybe somehow intentional, from the first article, concerning the legality of cannabis in Spain.

Edit request for Peru June 10 2012

I am in Peru and all the Peruvians I have talked to have said that marijuana of any amount is illegal, whether or not police will do anything for small amounts is a different story.

The source listed for Peru is to a marijuana blog of sorts that lists no source. Unless someone can find the specific law in Peruvian legislation, then I think Peru shouldn't be listed as 'legal.' — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.232.250.74 (talk) 23:12, 10 June 2012 (UTC)

Someone has mentioned in section on India "In Hinduism there are many elaborate spiritual practices that involve cannabis". This claim has not been substantiated by credible evidence. The reference number 48 doesn't even mention any thing of sorts. Being a student of religion, i can say that this statement is like "There are elaborate practices of orgies in Christianity".

I don't where you get all the slang names like "papagwaai gwaai"etc but you are wrong. We call it weed, spliff and ganga -like many people all over the world.

Medical marijuana is illegal in every U.S. state

The lead is incorrect. Medical marijuana is not legal in 16 states, since state law is superseded by federal law, which bans the sale and possession of marijuana without any qualifiers. —Designate (talk) 00:58, 6 July 2012 (UTC)

Hmmmm.... I don't think we can ignore state law here. All reliable sources do not agree with you that "medical marijuana is not legal" in any US state, so there's no need to bend the article towards any version of truth. Jesanj (talk) 22:32, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
Federal law supersedes state law. If the two contradict, the federal law is the correct one. If reliable sources disagree, we report both sides (or the majority side). We don't report *only* the incorrect side as the lead currently does. —Designate (talk) 22:53, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
I understand you think federal law is the correct one, but many states behave as if it were not so. We could add "despite federal law". I'm not a lawyer, is this what you would consider an example of Federal preemption? Jesanj (talk) 00:37, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
I think we'd both agree on this change. Jesanj (talk) 00:39, 8 July 2012 (UTC)
The states aren't under any obligation to enforce federal law, though. Just because the state governments don't prosecute marijuana users doesn't mean it's legal there. The federal government still prosecutes users in those states. Saying it's "legal in contradiction of the law" is just not a sensible way of describing the situation. —Designate (talk) 01:14, 8 July 2012 (UTC)

The current state of the law regarding medical marijuana is that it's legal under some state's laws but illegal under federal law. Because states are not under obligation to enforce federal law, it's legal as far as state and local law enforcement are concerned. It's still possible to for the feds to arrest and prosecute you for it though I am not aware of them having ever done so recently for individual medical marijuana users. The issue is simply one of when you say legal vs illegal, which government body do you refer too (federal, state, or local). Thus it's legal in some states on the state level, which is how it should be worded with a mention that it remains illegal on the federal level. --Cab88 (talk) 03:19, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

Italy section

The Italian sections contains many errors:

1) over the limits indicated by the law (500mg THC), unauthorized possession and production is not necessarily regarded as pushing. There must be other factors that show that production/possession "seem not to be for exclusively personal use". (The Italian Supreme Court of Cassation (Sezione III Penale, 13 January 2012, sentence n.919).

2)Possession and production for "exclusively personal use" is decriminalized as it is considered an "administrative offence" (illecito amministrativo, punishable with measures such as the suspension of the driving license or passport up to 1 year; or a simple invitation not to use the substance anymore for minor cases) even with higher amounts (art. 75, D.P.R. 309/1990). i.e. if the judge ruling the case deems that the cultivation appears to be for exclusively personal use, it is not punishable with 1-3 years of imprisonment, as it is an administrative offence.

3) production/import/export/sell/possession of any substance that doesn't appear to be for exclusively personal use is punishable with 6-26 years of imprisonment and a fine between €26'000 and €260'000 (art. 73§1-bis D.P.R. 309/1990). Reduced to 1-3years and 3'000-26'000 for minor cases (art. 73§5 D.P.R.309/1990).

For these reasons, I would edit it to something like that:

Cannabis is illegal in Italy. Possession for “exclusively personal use” is decriminalized and considered an administrative offence. The legislation establishes quantitative limits of active ingredient over which possession and production may be regarded as pushing. Although, other factors must indicate that possession and/or production seem not to be for personal use. Currently, the limit of THC is set at 500mg. In July 2008, the Italian Supreme Court ruled that Rastafari may be allowed to possess greater amounts of cannabis legally, owing to its use by them as a sacrament. Whoever is considered to produce, sell, give or traffic any kind of substance is punished with 6–20 years of imprisonment. Minor cases are punishable with 1-3 years of imprisonment. Medical use of substances prepared with marijuana is legal, if provided by medical prescription.

Brazil in the world map

Brazil's status is shown as "decriminalized" in the world map. This is wrong. It should be changed to "illegal but often unenforced". Cannabis is still considered a crime in Brazil. Possession is usually not punished by jail, but some alternative form of punishment is still applied. Italo Tasso (talk) 02:15, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

Several sections appear to be written by English as a second language speakers and should be rewritten to conform to standard English.

I noticed several sections appear to be written by someone for whom English is not their native language. As such some should go in a clean up such sections. One that stuck out is the France section but I believe others exist too. --Cab88 (talk) 03:34, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

Removing comment about broad support for marijuana use in Canada

The data that seems to justify this statement only identifies that 66% of Canadians favour fines as opposed to jail time. All that could be said is that most Canadians prefer fines to jail time. Misleading statement. --Canadiandy (talk) 01:21, 1 September 2012 (UTC)

Enforcement of Canadian cannabis laws.

There seems to be some common misconceptions about Canadian cannabis prohibition not really being enforced. In Canada, recreational cannabis use is illegal and banned under both federal and provincial law. Enforcement of this seems to be on the uptick:

"In fact, police and prosecutors in B.C. are escalating the war. The B.C. Ministry of Justice last month reported an 88 per cent increase in marijuana possession charges over the last decade. In 2011, 3,774 people faced criminal charges for simple possession."

http://www.timescolonist.com/health/votes+show/7538680/story.html#ixzz2C6dRX1LS

I understand that political trends are often drivers of these statistics, but nonetheless, for right or wrong, generally the illegality of cannabis in Canada remains enforced. The map implying Canadian pot laws as not being enforced should be updated to "confirmed illegal." Factcolony (talk) 12:56, 13 November 2012 (UTC)

North Korea

I understand that the growth, sale and consumption of cannabis is actually legal in North Korea, unregulated and isn't even classified as a drug. See HERE and HERE. So the map should be changed. Coinmanj (talk) 22:04, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

This is the wrong place to talk about the map. That would be at the talk page of the file on Wikimedia Commons (the map is used on other Wikipedias, not just the English one). Trinitresque (talk) 22:15, 18 January 2013 (UTC)
That being said, I have changed the map. Trinitresque (talk) 22:42, 18 January 2013 (UTC)
Has anyone yet, found reliable sources, confirming the lack of statute against marijuana use in North Korea? Because every article that is referenced, seems to have since disappeared. And articles which have appeared later in 2013 (the sources on here are mostly from January, are making big claims, based on "anonymous sources" and references to no police concern about it - but there's little to no concern about it in San Francisco, that doesn't mean it legal. No one seems to have a reliable, verifiable source, saying it has never been made illegal.
So far, it seems the general consensus is - no one is quite sure. CleverTitania (talk) 09:00, 11 December 2013 (UTC)

Islam does not ban hashish.

This line needs to be removed or revised:

"In the Arab world, the use of hashish has been widespread for many centuries, despite prohibition of its use in orthodox Islam."

Islam itself does not ban the consumption of hashish or cannabis. Nowhere in the Quran does Mohammed prohibit the use of cannabis. You can look here for historical explanations of this: http://rbedrosian.com/Downloads/Hashish_Islam_9-18th.pdf There are moments in Arab history where cannabis is outlawed by religious authorities, but these aren't by some religious consensus. There was usually some political or economic reason for the bans, and the bans rarely lasted long.

Some Muslim states, in fact, completely accept cannabis use. Iran's a great example. Alcohol's banned there, but cannabis is not.

Also, please refrain from making catch-all statements about Islam. Muslims are not a monolithic group: there are just as many interpretations of Islam as there are followers.

Cannabis isnt legal in Iran but that statement was unsourced and so has been removed for that reason. Thanks, ♫ SqueakBox talk contribs 23:40, 10 July 2013 (UTC)

Gonzales v. Raich

Gonzales v. Raich should be used here. While the Obama administration may have opted not take any action to block the implementation in these states, it's only action is inaction. They can at any point start enforcing the federal law and they can do so without any warning. As the law remains unchanged on the Federal level it, as it is the supreme law of the land, Marijuana is completely illegal in Washington and Colorado regardless of their state laws.Serialjoepsycho (talk) 05:35, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

Cannabis reform

The entire section on 'cannabis reform' comes across as NPOV. According to the Oxford Learner's Dictionary, reform means 'to improve a ... by making changes to it'. Why is this article discussing a reform of cannabis? It is not Wikipedia's place to be making such assessments. The phrase 'Some barriers to cannabis reform' is problematic as well as the title. Perhaps someone might like to address this. I would like to do so, but I feel that it should be left to those who know more about such matters. 131.111.185.66 (talk) 20:06, 21 February 2014 (UTC)

I have not addressed the aforementioned matters, but I did remove the section pertaining to the Netherlands, as it did not fit the definition of "reform" that is presented at the beginning of the section.

Oregon has legalized cannabis

Oregon passed a ballot measure legalizing cannabis. Washington D.C. did as well, but Congress has the final say there. Titanium Dragon (talk) 06:57, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

Marijuana Prohibition

From 1850 through 1915 Marijuana was made widely legal in the United States as a medicinal drug and could be purchased in pharmacies and general stores. Reefer Madness Italic text was released in 1936 to scare American youth from using it then a year later the government criminalized the medicine. In response Dr. William C. Woodward, testifying on behalf of the AMA, told Congress that, "The American Medical Association knows of no evidence that marijuana is a dangerous drug" and warned that a prohibition "loses sight of the fact that future investigation may show that there are substantial medical uses for Cannabis." His comments were ignored by Congress. A part of the testimony for Congress to pass the 1937 act derived from articles in newspapers owned by William Randolph Hearst, who had significant financial interests in the timber industry, which manufactured his newsprint paper. 1938 Supply of hashish from Chinese Turkestan nearly ceases. The U.S. company DuPont patented the processes for creating plastics from coal and oil and a new process for creating paper from wood pulp.<ref>http://www.advancedholistichealth.org/history.html</ref> Miguelsnchz723 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 04:26, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

The Falkland Islands in the World Map

Canabis is illegal in the Falkland Islands (should be red) and not decriminalised (orange). I assume this is a confusion about location (Malvinas) but note the Falklands are an Overseas Territory of the United Kingdom and follow many of their laws. The smaller population ensures drugs offences e.g. cananbis possession can be properly investigated and prosecuted (unlike in the UK where ubiquity allows for enforcement). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.137.251.142 (talk) 21:25, 4 March 2015 (UTC)

Cannabis in Russia

The map in this article says that cannabis in Russia is "illegal but decriminalized". It is a dangerous misconception: cannabis is neither "illegal but decriminalized" nor "illegal but often unenforced", is highly illegal in Russia (should be red on the map), and the drug laws are strictly enforced. You can go to jail for mere possession of only one joint.

Time for a Table?

Was wondering if it might be a good idea to put in a table at the top of the page listing jurisdictions where cannabis is legal - split into legal recreational use and legal medicinal use. Something like this (admittedly incomplete but you get the general idea):

Legal status of
Cannabis
Recreational
Cannabis portal

It's inspired by the Same-sex marriage article table. Obviously it would need some fine tuning, for instance I haven't listed any jurisdictions under medicinal use because there may be no use for it. Jono52795 (talk) 09:22, 24 May 2015 (UTC)

The color-coding of Romania in the adjacent map

I would like to make a comment about the accuracy of the adjacent map; in Romania, the use of marijuana is not even remotely treated lightly. The law regarding the production, import, distribution, sale and consumption of cannabis is enforced to its fullest extent (and according to some sources, perhaps too harshly!). Although I cannot comment on the accuracy and precision of the rest of the map, I believe this is not the only complaint brought to the editors' attention; considering that the map has been labeled as a potential work stemming from original research (and considering Wikipedia's no OR policy) and appears to be insufficiently referenced, can something be done about that? I agree that an imperfect map is better than no map, but it really gives off the wrong impression about an entire social and legal array of things. Considering that a similar objection has been related in relation to the Russian Federation specifically, are there any objections if the map is removed again? It has been removed a priori to this post, but has simmered back on the article again. Thevaluablediamond (talk) 10:54, 6 June 2015 (UTC)

The new map you inserted into the article is only about the legality of cannabis for medical use, and doesn't consider recreational use at all. But the caption still claims it is also about recreational use. This needs to be corrected. I propose going back to the previous map, assuming that the error about Chile will be corrected soon. Marcos (talk) 12:14, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
Another map that could be used is File:Cannabis laws.svg. It seems to get Chile right, but is outdated for Alaska and Oregon. I find it quite strange that there isn't a continuously updated map for cannabis legality like there is for same-sex marriage and many other topics on which the legal situation varies between countries with occasional changes in some countries.

Portugal?

I'm very surprised there's no mention of Portugal here, which to my knowledge has decriminalized all drugs (that includes cannabis). To be honest I don't have enough of an understanding of Portuguese law to say anything for definite, but surely Portugal should be mentioned here? Wasn't it one of the first countries in the world to decriminalize cannabis?
