I’m not the one spewing Reefer Madness propaganda around here.
I haven’t stated anything as fact, other than pointing out that you, and others are basing your arguments purely on bias and emotions, rather than fact, while attempting to pass off your views as fact.
Example 16 oz of harvestable Marijuana from a single plant. Great! Prove it.
Even your own numbers, 7 oz from one source, over a pound from another. Quite a gap, don’t you agree?
Yet, of course, you’re more than happy to “round up” when it suits you. Quite the generous assumption on your part, especially coupled with that “I’ll trust the police estimates over some Left Wing Dopers” comment.
Simply put, with what we’re arguing here, history is on my side. When Alcoholic Drug Prohibition ended, and legal Alcoholic Drug sales resumed, and taxed, they did become a reliable source of Tax Revenue.
Regardless of the fact that some people were able to Brew their own Beer, Bottle their own wines, or distill their own hard liquor.
That fact remains that although people CAN do it, doesn’t automatically mean they WILL do it, which is the foundation for your entire argument against the idea of Legalizing and Taxing Marijuana.
Face it, we’ve tried it your way since 1937, and you are no closer to eliminating Marijuana now, than they were in 1937.
Like it or not, the only clear results of the WOD is Bigger Government, and huge amounts of spending for a Failed Government Program.
You accused the police of lying. A bit of projection, it appears.
