"CANNABIS IS STILL ILLEGAL" (Just to Remind All of You)

Britain loosened its laws today regarding the use of marijuana, bringing good news to an estimated 3.5 million pot smokers and many pizza delivery chains.

An adult caught with a small amount of pot will be stopped and searched, but not necessarily arrested or fined. Additionally, the maximum penalty for possession was decreased to two years in prison; however, the punishment for growing and dealing marijuana has been pushed up to 14 years.

This tolerance for smoking pot is nothing new, as far as I know. Britain is just putting into legislation what its police officers have been practicing for the past couple of years.
