GREEN HARVEST SHOT DOWN!

[Dave M]

Good points,

So now that I don't feel like the lone ranger, let's take it one step further. To pick up where Kathy left off:

""I would have never believed, 40 years ago, that in 2007 pot would STILL be illegal.""

Soooo... why do y'all think an herb which is less detrimental/addictive than alcohol is still illegal? I think it goes back to lobbyist and big business, or in the case of weed the lack there of. Granted it would be a big business but there are no big businesses that are existing, legally, that have a dog in the fight.

I'm really starting to believe that our country is being run by big business through ear marked money and lobbyist. Yeah, I know we have a vote but the way the last few elections have gone, I don't even know if that matters anymore.

There was a group out there called NORMAL, I don't know if they still exist but that's the only group, I've ever heard of, that attempted to reach congress on the subject of legalizing weed.

The story about lilianiguys' mother being told by her doctor that weed would help her endure the cancer treatment is not rare. Doctors have lined up to say that marijuana is useful for many purposes.

So that's my question to yous guys why is marijuana still illegal. Many here have stated they don't use it but they don't think it should be illegal. I agree with them and don't smoke anymore but if I were going pick up any of my old habits I think weed would be the most harmless of them, including smoking cigaretts. Anyway your thoughts?




Take care,
