Sad days in #Malta!
Instead of preventing harm, our law courts continue to adopt draconian interpretation of the law and consider 12 grams of cannabis a serious crime..
Cannabis decriminalisation or just a masquerade?
#reefermadness
#oppression
#persecution
Dear experts, doctors, and others..
Correlation is NOT causation
Blood detection and levels do not equate to impairment
Stop using us as a scapegoat, the real problems are:
π¨Overspeeding
Alcohol binging π«£
β οΈUnsafe infrastructure

We respond to questions π§π€
Why more plants? So we donβt live in fear of arrest.
500g is exaggerated! If decrim allows acquiring 50g/month (+500g/year), why isnβt a Home Grower treated equally?
Why label us βcriminalsβ instead of equal citizens?

#SupportDontPunish
And π²πΉ Malta? Still waiting for thousands of criminal records to be cleared.
Fines for cannabis use on the street & at home if a neighbour has it. π‘
Aprilβs legal changes? No help for home growers & risking CHRA membersβ privacy with data leaks.

π΄ How can we rest assured the personal data collected by the ARUC through Cannabis Harm Reduction Associations will not end up being leaked or passed on for political reasons? π€

In collaboration with Harm Reduction #Malta we embarked on a national campaign to promote less risky methods of consumption.
Positive behavioural change is possible.

The ARUC is presently sharing very worrying posts on the legal amendments it proposed and enacted through Parliament a few days ago.
Disproportionate laws hurt us all, especially members of CHRAs, presently the only ones exposed to a breach of privacy and rights.

Bill 128 on cannabis related activities exposes cannabis consumers and growers to human rights risks and unnecessary harms from profit driven stakeholders.
Read ReLeaf Malta's statement for more information. π
'Very sadly, it seems government-funded entities, and other stakeholders with a direct commercial and financial interest from cannabis sales are leveraging political pressure to demonise home cultivation and tarnish the reputation of home growers.'

Who are these amendments designed for?
Why not LEGALISE CANNABIS and spare us all this confusing act?
#malta
''NGO ReLeaf is seeking an urgent meeting over proposed law changes that would, among other things, give the government access to the personal data of all members of cannabis clubs..''

The relationship between the effects of cannabis and 'the lazy' stoner image seem to be more linked to perceptions than to actual reality.

The 2nd ARUC training for workers of CHRAs kicks off today!
In 2023, the ARUC invited Mr Γscar ParΓ©s & Ms Anna Obradors to deliver the training. They both have extensive experience researching & working with members & founders of Cannabis Social Clubs in Spain.
Good luck to all participants πβοΈπ«
Bonello also expressed concerns that the agreement could see police issuing arrests on the pretext of βresearchβ & βharm-reductionβ.

βWe fear a similar agreement will give the Police a new found mission of βarresting home growers / personal usersβ on the pretext of βresearchβ and harm reductionβ
"One understood that people convicted of crimes related to cannabis and falling under decriminalised / depenalised measures would automatically be deleted from personal criminal records," the NGO said.
