    Dr Henry Lowe (left), research scientist and entrepreneur, and Harvard Law School Professor Charles Nesson share a joke as they peruse a page in the book, Cannabis, Marijuana, Ganja — The Jamaica and Global Connection, written by Dr Lowe and Professor Errol Morrison. Professor Nesson was making a courtesy call on Dr Lowe at the Eden Gardens Wellness Resort and Spa on Lady Musgrave Road in Kingston last week Monday.

    HAMILTON, Bermuda (CMC) — Opposition Leader Marc Bean has come under fire from a leading children's rights advocate after admitting he gave his then-young daughter "ganja tea" to treat her asthma.

    The advocate, Sheelagh Cooper, said she was shocked by Bean's statement in the House of Assembly.

    Speaking during a take-note motion in the House on the report of the Cannabis Reform Collaborative to potential changes to the island's policy on marijuana, Bean said he had in the past used marijuana medicinally for both himself and his family.

    "It therefore is useless and pointless, unless it is for share malice and victimisation to arrest and charge a 92-year-old man for such a simple offence. There is nothing morally wrong with this man smoking a spliff; the only thing wrong is that it is still on the law books," said Chevannes.

    Time for Roger Goodell and NFL to get real about players' marijuana use

    More NFL offseason: League minicamp dates | Latest news, notes

    Enough with the NFL's Reefer Madness already. It needs to stop.

    I fully realize that nothing of significance changes in this league without a fight between the league and its union, but the fact that lighting up a joint is dealt with in a draconian fashion, while domestic abuse punishment is often meted out in a far-less severe manner, is just one of many incongruous corollaries to the NFL's weed policy.

    At a time when the government's approach to pot is taking a dramatic turn, and the drug is being increasingly legalized to some degree or another in state after state, for young stars in their prime like the Browns' Josh Gordon and the Cardinals' Daryl Washington to both be potentially missing all of next season, if not longer, for using marijuana, is ludicrous (now, if you want to kick Washington out of the league for 2014 for other transgressions, you won't get an argument out of me).

    This is getting ridiculous.

    NFL hits Cards' Washington with 16-game ban
    The penalties are far too severe, seeming to hearken back to a bygone time when stricter federal mandatory minimums for drug possession of any kind were all the rage. The times, they are a changin'-- no matter which side of this issue you are on, and on Friday alone the House passed an amendment restricting the DEA from targeting medical marijuana operations in states where it is legal; a bill that was backed by bipartisan support.

      "it's a drug of choice to help relieve pain, escape the rigors of the game, and compared to the litany of painkillers that teams will gladly distribute via pill or injection, that will wreak havoc with one's liver and kidneys and god knows what else, it's seen by many, many players as a healthier alternative."

      Wrong , its a drug of choice because of culture, nothing more or less.Whatever that cultural use maybe, leisure or medicinal.

      This is the problem with Jamaica, they are in denial as it being a part of the culture,the escapisim is its a ghetto yute ting, so to criminalise and brutalise doesnt affect me, wrong again spending 12 billion JMD a year to incarcerate takes away from viable social programs, thats just incarceration, court cost could be another 12 billion.
