What could go wrong? An illegal magic mushroom shop in Portland attracted hoards of customers

Shroom House sells psilocybin mushrooms despite the fact its illegal in Oregon The upmarket shop says it's 'not a dispensary' but a 'health and wellness shop' Its opening comes amid rising crime and an exodus of businesses from the city Applications for psilocybin dispensaries will start being accepted in January

Hundreds of Portland residents have flocked to a whimsical new magical mushroom store that has opened in the city - despite being totally illegal.

The upmarket mushroom shop, called Shroom House, appeared in the city even though selling products containing psilocybin - the hallucinogenic ingredient in magic mushrooms - remains illegal in Oregon.

The illicit business looks like a regular store and has a sign attached to its façade depicting a mushroom that also looks like a house. The same distinctive logo is plastered on its glass windows, with its arrival sparking fears that Portland's record-murder rate and soaring violent crime problems will spike further.

In November 2020 Oregon passed Measure 109 - a bill that would legalize the controlled therapeutic use of psilocybin mushrooms. However, that bill does not legalize their sale.

When challenged about the legality of the business, the store owner told local news channel KOIN 'they're not a dispensary, they're a health and wellness shop.'

Portland has gone Woke, so I can't see why they shouldn't allow this business. And since the DOJ and the Deep State support the Woke State, I can't see why they should bother enforcing the White Man's Laws.

The only complaint is the Shroom House is a business...and business is based on greed. In other words, the Shroom House should be owned by the government and all its products should be free.

In Aldous Huxley’s book”Brave New World” people were allowed and encouraged to take Soma a drug to make dealing with the world easier.

If you you keep people drugged, they become compliant and unaware of the problems around them, between mushrooms, fentanyl and other legalized drugs people are becoming the same as in the book

The Marxists who have indoctrinated our colleges/universities apparently believe that they can turn people into mush-minded zombies and they will still turn out to vote Democrat. And so far, they seem to know exactly what they are doing.

All the while, the Republicans think winning elections is about traditional politics and they are running around trying to get their message out and besmirching Trump.

The Greek root word for sorcery is pharmakeia, pharmaceuticals or drugs.
It does not mean magical powers, but mind altering substances.
Open use of drugs, I think, is a fulfillment of Biblical prophecy in regards to the last days.
It’s all part of Babylon, or confusion.

I would have figured the modern day Soma was prozac. The drug companies are not going to like this one.

They will just own the processes, like they did with marijuana.

It could very well be Prozac, I think the point is, the government doesn’t really care about slowing or stopping drug abuse, legal or otherwise because a population of drug addicted zombies are easy to manipulate and control

It’s a fulfillment of Thomas Huxley’s Brave New World, where we keep ourselves occupied with non-stop amusement.

"In Aldous Huxley’s book”Brave New World” people were allowed and encouraged to take Soma a drug to make dealing with the world easier."

Huxley was looking forward to our own time when Christianity and the offer of life eternal in Paradise restored had finally disappeared from the hearts of men and women with the consequence that fear of death would fill men's hearts with dread and terror. Thus, Soma would make life easier by allowing people to forget the approach of death.

In our own time, WEF guru Yuval Hariri has recommended the widespread use of psychedelic drugs to make life easier for the great numbers of useless people... made useless by technology and Artificial Intelligence. Having said that, he now wants a mass extinction event to deal with the useless people problem.

Try opening a gun store saying it’s what the people want, and dude, I’m just going with my karmic call from the universe to help people.

For sure legalized marijuana manufactures more Democrat voters. More global warming activists too. Now add mushrooms to this mix

I have watched Yuval Hariri videos but can't remember exactly where he discussed an "elimination" event (for useless people).

Do you have a link or can you remember where you heard/saw a discussion of it?
