Cannabis lawyers
Today, France severely punishes the possession and consumption of cannabis. Visit cannabis is still illegal in France, Simple possession is still punishable by 1 year's imprisonment and a €3,750 fine. Some lawyers have turned to defending cannabis users, or have taken an anti-prohibition or even pro-legalization stance.
In the event of cannabis-related legal problems, you can also contact the IARC (email at the bottom of their page).

I'm in favour of no repression and the freedom to plant a minimum of 5/8 feet for personal consumption; warn teenagers not to smoke with just anyone; beware of mixing alcohol and cannabis; when driving, you have to adjust the dosage, as there are still traces even if you no longer have any effect, so it's unfair.
because it can be several days later it's disproportionate
