    Iqela Lentsango: The Dagga Party of South Africa  is a South African political party founded in February 2009 by Jeremy Acton, who remains the party's leader. The party's position is that cannabis users should have the same rights as people who use tobacco and alcohol.Acton was one of the people responsible for bringing the case before a South African court which resulted in the partial decriminalisation of dagga in South Africa.

    I think it takes enormous courage to stand up for a cause, especially when that cause has so much stigma attached, mostly due to misinformation and blatant lies. If scientific facts were considered, then cannabis should never have been criminalised in the first place. However this topic can and probably will be debated for a long time to come.  A huge thumbs up for Jeremy Acton and like minded thinkers.

    But perceptions are changing, I know mine has, I was one of the absolute critics when the use of cannabis was discussed - "DRUGS".  Once more money is spent on research and development and more facts are published, then the stigma of cannabis use will definitely not be an issue any more.

    This will probably put a huge dent in the pockets of the pharmaceutical giants, another huge topic for discussion.
