Call for UK prisons to trial free cannabis to see if it cuts drug deaths

Post by The Aspie Toker »

"Prisons should trial free cannabis schemes for drug-dependent inmates to ascertain whether it could reduce overdose deaths, bring down violence and help people overcome opioid addiction, a police and crime commissioner has said."

Yea I missed a couple words in my post after I sent it lol but yeah there in the right direction just focus on more than one spot ... people are in need of help everywhere for different reasons pain anxiety mental health etc so why all of a sudden help them ...not at saying it's bad cause it is a good thing you can actual die from not having a certain drug alcohol cause your body need to wean off of it etc cause it can put your body in shock
