That’s a misleading headline. Makes it sound like 70% of young people use cannabis. The figure is that of people who were charged with cannabis related crimes, 70% were in their 20s. About 1.8% of their population had ever used cannabis in 2019.
Possession of marijuana is already illegal in Japan. Now they’re sending anyone to prison that’s tests positive for thc metabolites. Boycott these fascists, don’t buy stuff from Japan and don’t support Japanese companies if you can help it.
