I’ll ignore the personal slight to get you up to speed.

Peyote is illegal for use under all conditions - Federally and in all States and territories; including growing it, unless you are a standing member of Native American Church, solely. (Native American Church of New York v United States (1979); Employment Division, Department of Human Resources of Oregon v. Smith (1990); People v. Woody (1964) 61 Cal.2d 716)

Cocaine is made from drying the leaves of the coca plant. It is a simple drying, crushing process. Just like making weed capable of being smoked. It’s not some magical process.

Heroin is derived from the resin (milk) of the poppy plant. There is no secret chemical process to it. It’s perfectly natural.

I would imagine you have no issues with making Hash or pot brownies, or pot “candies,” etc. or the modified hybrid marijuana grades? All are refined versions of weed that are less natural than straight cocaine, or heroin.

Yes, you are a hypocrite if you are in favor of legalizing one plant for recreational drug use and not the others.

What is your argument against legalizing cocaine and heroin?

I’m dying to know. Keep it simple though. I’m a moron.

How does it turn into a white powder? Just curious.

Can’t comment on your intellect, but your reading comprehension needs a bit of work.

Nowhere in this thread have I made a single comment favorable to recreational drug use.

Thank you for making my point though,regarding peyote. It’s the use as a drug that is outlawed and not the plant itself.

Anyway, don’t strain yourself with the virtue-signaling....

Coca leaves contain about 1% of the alkaloid known as cocaine. Solvent extraction is necessary to make the street drug.
