Frankly, I haven't smoked pot in ages, but I think that it is far less harmful than alcohol, especially when you look at the traffic fatalities.
This just sounds like scare tactics to me.

I smoke pot like a chimney in High School and had no long term problems except for memory loss and some other...things...which I can't quite remember...

If the UN says it's bad, then it must be good.
Roll up a fat one and pass it around!

Hell, pot isn't even as dangerous as nicotine, and anyone who knows anything about it knows that. One more stake in the credibility of the UN.

Good Lord! Even heroin isn't as bad as heroin.
These constant scare tactics on every single aspect of life have done their job on me. I now plan to drink whiskey while eating a stick of butter and getting a tan. I won't be wearing a helmet or using a seat belt while I do this.
Take that, UN nannies!

The day anyone takes anything the UN says seriously is a day the person DID hallucinogenics! Especially when it comes to drugs. Sounds like someone just needed to have a few words for a special day.

what a change from what he said when he was appointed - then all the problems with drugs he cited had to do with narcotics, trafficking and the violence and terrorism associated.
I wonder what (or who) changed his mind.
BTW, he holds degrees in math and economics and had always had economics related jobs before being made drug czar for the U.N.

Wow, so if you want alcohol banned in addition to pot, you have quite a lot of work ahead of you.

LOL!
I'll bet old Antonio is worried! The UN Office on Drugs and Crime has a yearly budget of over $60 million. 90% of that is "donated" by the US and the UK. He wants more money to fight the evil weed and this resistance to marijuana prohibition threatens his gravy train!
