Smoking tolerance level [1= very illegal 5=virtually legal]: 4 ---
Legislation:
Marijuana is illegal in Trinidad but can be found almost anywhere.
Law Enforcement:
If you’re caught with one smoke then the cops might yell at you, laugh at you, slap you and go away, or book you: it all depends on the officer. However, anything considered “large” (use your discretion) will definitely warrant a search and ride down to the station. The judge won’t waste time on you if all you had on you at the time was one joint.
Where to Buy marijuana:
Compressed/Schwag can be found almost anywhere you see guys on a corner/house in middle/down scale pats of the country. Each block has it’s own supply and variety ranges from dealer to dealer. High grade is more difficult to find and not easily available on everyday blocks, requiring you to know someone, who knows someone.
Marijuana prices: Lows: $10TTD/1.58USD for 1-3 grams;
Mids: $10TTD-$20TTD per gram, $200+TTD/Oz;
Highs: Expect to pay anywhere from atleast $50TTD/Gram to atleast $100TTD depending on genetics.
Marijuana brands: St.Vincent,
Trinidad, Jamaican, Exotic Varities

My dad is going on a trip at the end of the summer for a buisness meeting in Trinidad. I know zero about this place, other than it's an island in the carribean. I did some searches and this is what the "CIA World Factbook" said about "illicit drugs":
"transshipment point for South American drugs destined for the US and Europe; producer of cannabis"
...
Just some local laws for you. Always be informed!
"All narcotic drugs are illegal in Trinidad and Tobago. In any quantity!
There are no exceptions and no excuses.
Trinidad and Tobago laws do not allow for "personal possession" nor for ignorance of the law. The smallest quantity of marijuana found on your person will earn you at least a night in jail, and a hefty fine. Larger amounts of marijuana or any amount of cocaine will get you charged with "trafficking" - penalties for this include a minimum of 5 years in Trinidad's State Prisons, and possibly confiscation of your assets back home.
Finally, do not even think of taking home any "souvenirs". The airport drug squads are very efficient"
...
yo dude i live in trinidad i smoke everyday or close to it and getting weed for me i got 3 dealers in my area that i use there are many more but u cant just buy weed anywhere being new it can be dangerous, what u want to do is go to port of spain thats the capital city of trinidad and you can go to "the drag mall" which is basically some wooden some brick structures its on the main street in port of spain which is fredrick street.

...
or higher up fredric street there is a place called zero effect a stairs going up to a bar really not noticible but but concentrate on the left side of the street if your walking up ull see on a piece of the wall next to a staircase "the zero effect" its basically a bar where weed is accepted (STILL NOT LEGAL THOU) but u can g in there purchase weed and also sit and smoke it and there is als a bar if ud be interested in trying a few of the local rums or beer, and thats it.

N.J. Senate approves medical marijuana bill -
Monday, December 15, 2008 |
TRENTON BUREAU:
A Senate committee today cleared a measure that would allow medical use of marijuana in New Jersey.
The Senate Health, Human Services and Senior Citizens Committee voted to approve the long-stalled bill by a 6 to 1 margin; two senators abstained.
The bill calls for creating “alternative treatment centers” where people with chronic and terminal diseases would be allowed access to marijuana. Supporters say marijuana is a viable treatment option to alleviate pain in many cases.
“It is the definition of basic human decency that we do whatever we can to ease the pain and suffering of people living with severe chronic and terminal diseases,” said bill sponsor Sen. Nicholas Scutari, D-Union.
“When all other avenues of currently-approved pain relief have been exhausted, we need to give doctors the freedom to prescribe medical marijuana to give their patients a measure of comfort and dignity in the face of their debilitating diseases. This bill is about the most humane, compassionate option for those state residents who have nowhere else to turn in managing their illnesses.”
If ultimately approved by the full Legislature and signed by Governor Corzine, New Jersey would be the 14th state to allow medical use of marijuana.

A new study entitled Marijuana Effectiveness as an HIV Self-Care Strategy, which was released this past weekend in Clinical Nursing Research, indicates that persons living with HIV/AIDS rate cannabis as more effective in treating the symptoms of anxiety, depression, fatigue, diarrhea, and neuropathy than other prescription and over the counter medications.
The study, which was conducted over a two year period and included 775 patients from the USA, Africa, and Puerto Rico, assessed the use of cannabis as a symptom management approach for anxiety, depression, fatigue, diarrhea, nausea, and peripheral neuropathy. 27% of survey participants reported using cannabis for medicinal purposes.
Researchers wrote that cannabis use “was rated slightly more effective than antidepressants for anxiety and depression, Imodium for diarrhea, [over the counter] (OTC) medications for fatigue, and anti-epileptics and OTC medications for neuropathy” while cannabis was rated “slightly less effective for nausea than either prescribed or OTC medications.” Authors concluded that cannabis “is perceived by users as at least as effective as prescribed medications in symptom management.”

Caribbean News Now!:
Marijuana and hemp production can boost Trinidad and Tobago's economy, says activist
|
PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad -- The marijuana industry could be a billion-dollar industry -- an industry that could change Trinidad and Tobago’s economic and social climate should it be decriminalised.
This is the view of the head of the Decriminalize Cannabis Group of Trinidad and Tobago, Shyam Singh, and comes on the heels of similar concerns recently raised in Jamaica that the island might lose out on the economic benefits that could be derived from the commercial production of marijuana due to the reluctance of the government to decriminalise its use.
Singh, 40, of Chaguanas in Trinidad, is not only the head of this fast-growing social media group but also a successful entrepreneur and musician. He has been at the forefront of guitar playing in this country for the past 20 years. He also operates a hydroponic garden that can feed a small village.
Speaking with watzuptt in an exclusive interview, Singh said he strongly believes that cannabis (marijuana) prohibition reform is more important to Caribbean people than any other.

Caribbean: Trinidad & Tobago Political Leader Calls For New Approach in Dealing with Marijuana
|
Posted in: Crime & Violence Decriminalization Marijuana -- Personal Use News Brief Politics Outside US The Drug Debate
>> In the run-up to Trinidad & Tobago's national elections Monday, United National Congress (UNC) Party leader Basdeo Panday called for a new approach to dealing with marijuana in the island republic. It wasn't enough to bring the UNC to victory, though; it was defeated once again by the ruling People's National Movement (PNM), which picked up 26 seats in the legislature, compared to 15 for the UNC. Still, the leader of the primary opposition party in the country is calling for a reefer reassessment.
"I think we ought to look at that to see whether prohibiting things really ends the problem," Panday said during a pre-election radio forum. Panday recalled the "old days," when there was a shop selling "ganja" in Princes Town and people would smoke it in chillums on Saturday nights after working in the fields all week. "It never was a problem. That is the strange thing about it. I think we ought to go back and study that," Panday said.

US Government Says It Will Stop Interfering with Medical Marijuana |
According to this article, US Attorney General Eric Holder has said that states will be allowed to make their own rules about medical marijuana, and that the US federal government will stop raiding medical marijuana dispensaries in California. (See article “Can Marijuana Help Rescue California’s Economy?”at this link)
In the 1990s, several US states passed referendums which allowed marijuana to be used legally for medical purposes. In a referendum, the registered voters vote directly on the proposed law, as opposed to the law being passed by the state legislature. Thus, when these states passed these referendums, it meant that the citizens of these states really wanted medical marijuana to be made legal.
However, in a blatant disregard for democracy and the people’s will, under the Bush administration, the national government refused to accept this law, and carried out raids of the medical marijuana dispensaries.

Legalisation: The First 100 Years By Mike Jay (Info, History) What happened when drugs were legal, and why they were prohibited. Today, as the notion of legalising drugs is making its way into the mainstream political agenda for the first time in living memory, one of the most common objections to it is that it represents a high-risk experiment whose outcome cannot be accurately modelled or predicted.
Yet within the context of history, the opposite is true: it is the prohibition of drugs which is the bold experiment without precedent. Visit: http://www.thehempire.com/index.php/cannabis/cannabis_hemp/legalisation_the_first_100_years
THE REEFER MADNESS ERA, REEFER MADNESS BOOKS (Info, History) By definition, it would be a contradiction in terms to list or classify a Reefer Madness book as a work of "Non-Fiction."

However where appropriate the terms [Fiction] and [Non-Fiction] are used.

The History of the Medical Use of Marijauna ... In Nepal, it is distributed on certain feast days at the temples of all Shiva ...
Cannabis is used in Hindu and Sikh temples and at Mohammedan shrines. Besides using the drug as an aid to meditation, it is also used to overcome hunger and thirst by the religious mendicants. In Nepal, it is distributed on certain feast days at the temples of all Shiva followers (Blum & Associates, 1969, 11: 63).

Informational Guide on Medical Cannabis |
If you have ever heard of the song, “Lets Go Get Stoned,” as sung by Ray Charles or Joe Cocker, you know the lyrics were referring to getting high or using cannabis aka marijuana. This mind altering drug goes by other names as well; names such as weed, pot, joint, blunt, hash and mary jane are quite common among users. Cannabis is a plant that contains a chemical called cannabinoids or cannabinolidic acids.
Another substance that is found in cannabis is THC, or Tetrahydrocannabinol, which gives the users that “high” sensation. When speaking of marijuana, the actual substance used in creating the high feeling comes from the leaves and flowering tops of the cannabis plant. Marijuana is considered to be a schedule 1 controlled substance today, because of the THC, which can be highly potent, depending upon the concentration factor of the THC.

THE REEFER MADNESS ERA, REEFER MADNESS BOOKS (Info, History) By definition, it would be a contradiction in terms to list or classify a Reefer Madness book as a work of "Non-Fiction." Thus both genres are group together here simply as "Hard Cover" books; if only to distinguish them from the "Pulp Fiction" or "Dime Store novels" discussed elsewhere. However where appropriate the terms [Fiction] and [Non-Fiction] are used.

Factbook: Medical Marijuana
1. Since 1996, twelve states have legalized medical marijuana use: AK, CA, CO, HI, ME, MT, NV, NM, OR, RI, VT, and WA. Eight of the twelve did so through the initiative process. Hawaii's law was enacted by the legislature and signed by the governor in 2000, Vermont's was enacted by the legislature and passed into law without the governor's signature in May 2004, Rhode Island's was passed into law over the governor's veto in January 2006, and New Mexico's legislation was signed into law by Governor Bill Richardson on April 2, 2007.
2. The Institute of Medicine's 1999 report on medical marijuana stated, "The accumulated data indicate a potential therapeutic value for cannabinoid drugs, particularly for symptoms such as pain relief, control of nausea and vomiting, and appetite stimulation."

Proven : Cannabis is Safe Medicine
by Ian Williams Goddard | In reaction to medical cannabis access referendums on the ballots in Arizona and California, former presidents Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, and George Bush signed a letter stating that they "categorically oppose'' access to cannabis for its many proven therapeutic uses such as the prevention of blindness and epileptic seizures. Their chief concern was that legal medical access would send the message that cannabis is safe. The presidents can, however, lay their safety concerns to rest because the scientific literature overwhelmingly confirms that cannabis is both an effective and safe medicine.
The Cannabis Safety Profile. The journal PHARMACOLOGICAL REVIEWS reports that decades of research prove that, "Compared with legal drugs...marijuana does not pose greater risks." Yet based upon mortality statistics, we can safely conclude that cannabis is one of the safest medical drugs known, for, while prescription drugs, defined as safe by the FDA, kill up to 27,000 and aspirin up to 1,000 Americans per year, cannabis kills 0 per year.
