Poll: Have you ever smoked cannabis?

There were protests across the globe yesterday as people seek to have the drug legalised.

YESTERDAY, PEOPLE THE world over celebrated 4/20 – a day marked by those who use cannabis – by turning out to demonstrations for the drug’s legalisation.

The code 4/20 is most often used in North America, attributed to a group of young people in the 1970s who met up at 4.20pm to smoke.

Several dozen people gathered at Dublin’s Garden of Remembrance to hold their own protest.

Today, we want to know: Have you ever smoked cannabis?
