    The big money is in the fines, seizures and even the prison budget. Cops and DEA love stealing people's cash and houses and shit and selling it off.

      The whole trend towards YouTube links in forums doesn't really jive with me.

      Other than the odd music clip, I don't watch any of them.

      Don't have the patience/time to sit through them. I'm much more of a text-based, scan/read-an-article type of forum user.

        That's more of the fallout of this whole stupid war on drugs mindset which is a different matter and has cost so many innocent lives in the process. I was speaking more of the anti-marijuana propaganda wave being pushed and funded without scrutiny. Being a gun owner myself never once while I was stoned think it was brilliant idea to play with a loaded firearm.

        Oh, and to say marijuana is a "gateway drug" is just as ridiculous. Again, never once stoned did I think "Gee, you know what would make side one of 'Fair Warning sound so much better...if I was on heroin!"

            Also try 'Mighty Arrow' brewed by the same company. It'll hit you a lot harder if you're into that sort of thing.

              Still like the Pacific Northwest brews best of all. So there you go.

                That was a one-time deal. I'll put something more recent up soon.

                    Although I do not partake, I'm for legalization.
                    It's had numerous uses for centuries.

                    Queen Victoria used to eat weed candy for her menstrual cramps [yeah, whatever].

                    Booze will have a hard time competing with a recreational activity that doesn't give you a hangover.

                    But how do you get around the drug testing thing? Do you really want a OTR trucker hauling a roll of steel coil stoned?

                    And does he deserved to be fired for burning one a month ago, when the SUV cuts him off and gets rear-ended?

                    You can test for BAC on the spot, can you accurately do the same for weed?

                    That's the only problem I really see with it.

                      I took a couple hits at the outdoor concert saturday walked up to a couple dudes standing there in the shade they had the blunt down cool like and I was bs'n and they asked a couple times I said no thanks and then wtf...

                      If a cop would have walked up to me and tried to bust us I would have kicked him in the nuts and ran...

                      Not really but I just have never seen the big deal of "It's the devils weed" "It's going to lead you to other drugs"...

                      I never purchase anymore and always feel like a mooch if I smoke a joint once every 5 years,passing me by, but just like the old days walking around the concert, my nose would catch a sent and like a pointer, my body would just turn off whatever path I was on and head that way,,..lol

                      How could something that smells so good have such a confusion associated with it.

                      Yes I can tell the difference between good pot and skunk or mean green still...

                      A permanat record with a pot bust can slow your corporate advancement they have HR people who can check your cop records google sh!t It's just bullsh!t that something like a pot bust..... is a "Drug" bust..pathetic.

                      You can use drugs as a tool or you can be a tool of the drug .


                      It depends on what You want...

                        I know others did this but our highschool weed was always stripped and bagged.

                        So:

                        We would go down to the river and find some wild bunk and pick some small leaves and go to the store and hot laminate them in plastic, hard like a credit card clear plastic..and carry them around in our wallets.

                        Cop gets ahold of a friend of mines and tries to bust him for, posession, advertising and felony drug like a conspiracy charge, and attempt to distibute.

                        His dads lawyer got it thrown out of court, but the insanity of the laws is just stupid regarding this drug.

                        Remember that dude on 20/20 15 years ago or so who did like 17 years for having three kilos it was alot and we all know he was going to sell some,,personal use my ass but i guess you all can tell the system can be wrong when dealing with personal freedoms american or not as far as I am concerned.

                        It should be legal 21 older and same as booze laws.

                          There is a prescription drug called Marinol that I have seen here and there as a nurse over the past 20 years...

                          The THC in it is synthetic. I have a patient on it now. He waits for it like the "pain pill" patients do...

                            What does the marinol actually DO? I've heard it was useless as anti-nausea medication, AND it doesn't get you high at all. Just seems like another attempt of the pharmaceutical companies cashing in on something they can patent, rather than actually using the medicine God gave us.

                              I remember someone saving up 20 or 30 pills and he said he was high for two days...

                              But a single dose dose little, I think...
