POLICE ANTI-POT RAMPAGE AT RECORD LEVEL


NORML - Police arrested a record 872,721 persons for marijuana violations in 2007, according to the Federal Bureau of Investigation's annual Uniform Crime Report. This is the largest total number of annual arrests for cannabis ever recorded by the FBI. Cannabis arrests now comprise nearly 47 percent of all drug arrests in the United States. . . Of those charged with marijuana violations, approximately 89 percent, 775,138 Americans were charged with possession only. The remaining 97,583 individuals were charged with "sale/manufacture," a category that includes all cultivation offenses, even those where the marijuana was being grown for personal or medical use. Nearly three in four of those arrested are under age 30.

Idiots. Legalize it and sell it in a tub or in pre-rolled packages.

Those idiots aren't idiots though scratch, they're capitalists, there's more money in keeping it from the people. Can't have us self medicating eh.

Damn is right, it's the #2 reason I hate capitalists they literally make my bones hurt to fatten their accounts, they are my mortal enemies.

Would you smoke government weed if given the chance, DB?

It would be safe, maybe on the pricey side but still....

No, it's not the right variety, all cannibis is not equal, Health Canada know squat about growing and processing cannibis. When we get a government for the public instead of in spite of it, I should imagine we will be allowed to grow what we need same as potatoes.

Its been tested independently before and found to be unsatisfactory for consumption oweing to residuals left from fertilizer and additives, it was suggested that it was unsafe to smoke I haven't heard if its improved since then. Also at that time the entire plant was chopped leaf and stem and stuffed in bags.

I do not have an answer for that but it would not get FDA (Five Day Approval) here.
