Speaking as an aging baby boomer, I never thought I'd be nostalgic over a $20 baggie of Mexican.
Who wrote this piece - Count Floyd?
SCTV Flashback - "Monster Chiller Horror Theater".
"Scary, huh, kids?"
Yep. All the advertising hype is gospel, and all the cannabis out there is hydroponically grown superweed. Got it.
This starting statement is utter bullshit. I didn't bother to read any further.
Antonio Maria Costa? Gender identity crisis.
It's goofy stoner ad copy. As an aside, the "AK-47" this U.N. stooge mentions is not, as one would think, named after the weapon, but for the flowering time (47 days give or take) and heritage (Alaskan). No rubble, no quicksand. The fact that the seed banks make up names for their stock is not surprising. The fact that they hype it with ad-copy isn't either.
Still, you should see him on the back 9 at Augusta.
Okay... Wait, what did you ask?
> The distinction between "soft" and "hard" drugs is, at best, artificial, especially with such a damaging psycho-active substance as modern-day cannabis. Even some advocates of cannabis as a "soft" drug are now reconsidering as they observe the devastating health consequences of abuse.
Why is it that fanatic drug haters always ridicule themselves by showing an absolute lack of knowledge about the subject? Not that I recommend getting high on dutch killer everyday for everyone, but devastating health consequences...do these people want to be taken serious?
Yeah, right.
More than a century of universally accepted restrictions on heroin and cocaine have prevented what would otherwise have been a pandemic.
< whiney voice > "It would be so much worse if we didn't have 'drug control'." < off whiney >
This is the same "It woulda been worse.." excuse liberals use for everything they try to fix. If demonrats get control and gas goes to six bucks...
(I should have added, "Then click on 'Add to My Cart'", but that probably goes without saying.)
Sheer idiocy. Just for starters, nobody has ever fatally overdosed on even the strongest marijuana.
North America is the world's largest cannabis market and most of its cannabis is homegrown. The U.S. market alone has been valued at more than $10-billion. As Canadians are starting to discover, a market that size inevitably attracts organized crime. So cannabis is a security threat as well as a health risk.
No, LAWS AGAINST cannabis are a security threat. When the drug alcohol was illegal, that market attracted organized crime.
People who drive under the influence of cannabis put others at risk.
People who drive under the influence of alcohol put others at risk ... is that sufficient reason to ban that drug?
Global levels of drug addiction -- think of the opium dens of the 19th century -- have dropped dramatically in the past 100 years.
Actually, Ken H has shown that drug addiction is higher in war-on-drug meccas like Singapore than it is in the USA.
With the name Antonio Maria, I doubt they'd let him within 100' of Augusta National.
It is a security threat and a magnet to crime precisely because it is illegal. Duh.
