  1. “Gardaí attribute the primary reason for the reduction in prosecutions to the addition of possession of cannabis and cannabis resin for personal use to the Adult Cautioning Scheme at the end of 2020.”

  2. “Prosecutions Halved”

    What low hanging fruit are the great Garda Síochána switching over to now, if they’re not doing people for small amounts of cannabis anymore.

  3. That’s bullshit there’s no proof they did that just their word same way they lied about the penalty points. Ridiculous arresting people over cannabis majority who are not causing trouble.

  4. Don’t smoke weed myself but would rather bump into a bunch of stoners than a bunch of drunk people anyway, in this day and age all drugs should be decriminalized,

    Prohibition doesn’t work at least people wouldn’t be getting charged for personal possession

  5. I find it so strange that we have threads about criminalising tobacco and decriminalising weed and both get support.
