You're walking on the sidewalk at night and then you come across a bag. You open the bag and find a kilogram(2lbs) of marijuana. What do you do with the bag.

I don't smoke and I don't want to get involved in anything illegal. So I call the police.

Marijuana in the UK is legal for personal consumption (I'm fairly sure... >_> ... <_< ... =_=), and I haven't had a toke in ages, so I'm rolling up, thanks!

EDIT: Before more people start quoting me, I have now been disabused of the legal status of cannabis in the UK, but I'll live.

As the Dango above me said, call the police.
I don't need to deal with that crap, and I'd be doing a service by getting that stuff off the streets and destroyed. Or whatever they do with that.
Yeah, I'm a goody two-shoes, but it pays better than a bleed-all-over-shoes-from-stab-wound...shoes.

Meh, I'd probably sell it.
I'm sure that there's some idiot at my school who'd buy it for way more than it's worth.

I'm pretty sure it isn't... ?

Also, I'm the only person who would just leave it? I don't smoke weed, but i have nothing against those who do. I'm honestly surprised that of the people who don't smoke/sell it, everyone apparently chose to inform the cops.

I consider marijuana a safer/better drug than alcohol, myself.

Edit: Wikipedia: "Cannabis is illegal in the United Kingdom but punishments are usually minor, resulting in a confiscation and a "cannabis warning" for small amounts. However this warning will appear under one's name on government databases and in CRB security checks."

I've actually been in this situation. Not, you know, 2 kilos as that's kind of a lot to find laying around, but a rather full baggy.

Took it, smoked it with the wife, good times were had, didn't look back.

As far as I'm concerned it was a gift from the universe. So thanks, universe! You're pretty cool in my books.

I would not have the balls to smoke found weed, no matter how much I might want to. If I could somehow guarantee that it wasn't laced with something then I'd do a combination of smoking it, selling it and giving it away.

I know people who would want to get there hands on that stuff. So I would hand it on but would not accept direct payment. You can get into some serious shit for selling drugs in this country so I would not risk it.

i'd leave it, i wouldn't smoke it and i don't know anyone to sell it to so may as well leave it there for someone else to make use off

Well. To accurately adress this situation, we'd have to weigh the pro's and con's.
Let's say you were the sort of chap to enjoy the smoking of this substance. There are the possibilities that you'd be caught by the police or something while removing the said bag from it's current position. Or even worse. There was a drug deal going down, and you made an attempt to run away with their goods. That won't end well. Or of course, someone might have tampered with the stuff, leaving you unknowing of what you're actually smoking. Now - does the enjoyment you could derive from this weigh up for all of these possible scenarios? If so, then I'm sure I'd take it. If not so much, I'd probably take it anyway. If very little so, I'd leave it for someone else to find.

Now if you weren't into this kind of stuff you'd have two possibillities. Take it and sell it onward, or bringing it to the police. Say you bring it to the police - what is your reward? Next to nothing, perhaps a pat on the shoulder if you're lucky enough to not be considered a suspect of possessing or dealing. If you do decide to sell it, you'll have to get down to the parts of the society where this is possible. These parts are usually not know for their hospitality. Therefor, if you're not really used to dealing with this stuff, you might just end up mugged, beaten and perhaps stripped of some clothing. No reward for you what so ever. Still possibly better than being looked upon with suspicion by the cops. Now if you were to be able to handle the drugdealing thing. Then you might just wind up with a load of hard cash. And that certainly would be pleasent.

With that summary, I'd say the two most valid option would be to smoke it yourself or sell it onward. You decide, kids. And remember:
Just say No ;)
