Episode 2
In the second episode, James explores the hidden world of organised crime linked to the supply of
cannabis in the UK, following a police drug squad and the UK Border Agency as they target gangs and
smugglers. He meets the casualties of the drugs trade, including a 14-year-old addict who has
convictions for burglary to fund his habit and a Vietnamese teenager smuggled into Britain by lorry
to work in British cannabis farms to supply the huge demand.

The world just needs to legalize it. The prohibition laws impose a far greater harm on society than
the substance itself. No prohibition would mean no black market, that's were the majority of crime
and harm comes from.

Legalize it!!!!

I didnt exactly get the conclusion of this peice.

Cannabiss is illegal, so drug gangs traffic people in to the country to illegally grow it.

Why not at least say that none of this would be happening if it was made legal.
Bloody propaganda.

Exactly, any rational person should be able to come to that conclusion. The black market thrives
and innocent people get arrested... plus everything else involved, is actually the result of
prohibition. Just as alcohol prohibition created violent gangsters like Al Capone. With a legal
and regulated alcohol system, you don't have any of that. Same would be true for cannabis.

End Cannabis Prohibition - Legalize and Regulate, it's the only way towards true harm reduction and
would put the black market and all it's thugs out of business!

this second episode is plain ridiculous !
they show people saying they got chills n other withdrawal symptoms that weed caused.
I'd say maybe the problem in this case is not weed but the fact you r so co-dependent as a person,
you need a support group to stop smoking weed.

they try to spoil the image of cannabis culture by showing troubled individuals that got caught up
on t weed just to ease their shitty lives. No one mentions the fact that they couldn't get a hold of
weed, if it was legal in the first place. Nobody would sell weed to a 10 year old

and btw if your son starts smoking weed by the age of 10, theres really no one to blame but
yourself.Really.
Instead of taking control, you sit there and cry blaming life or god or weed for a shitty son.
When i was 10 i wasnt even able to watch tv passed "my bedtime"

I can't even believe they say, no fuck that, they believe that cannabis is physically addictive.
Thats royal horse shit.
weed is no more addictive that ice cream, fast food, sex or any other awesome, normally harmless
thing in this fucked up world.
Thats SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN and that fact is recognized by both doctors and governments worldwide.

I was expecting that kind of propaganda by the U.S not from uk. turns out england is americas bitch
after all.

This series should be renamed to Criminalizing cannabis Whats the Harm.

fuck, look how mad i got
that kind of sneaky propaganda along with stupid naive people always get me crazy mad.
if i offended anybody, fuck you!

cheers

Was this suppose to get people to stop smoking cannabis or something?

The obvious conclusions drawn from this "documentary" are plan out, idiotic legislators and smug
policemen are unable to uphold the laws they made up. Not only that, alot of people get in the
crossfire, thanks to the lucrative business the government has made available.

The piece was alright up until they went all haywire with propaganda and guilt-trips. It's rubbish
to blame cannabis-consumers for giving money to organized crime, they didn't make it illegal.

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
