A MarketPlace of Ideas

Ever hear the saying "When guns are outlawed only outlaws will have guns" ?

That is the exact situation a Mormon community finds itself in Mexico.  Heavily armed drug gangs pull people out of their houses and put bullets in their heads while the Mormon community is told by the government it can not have weapons.   This is the real world and not some rainbow and unicorn liberal paradise.   Liberals think outlawing guns will result in a paradise.  The exact opposite occurs.

A final point to consider while watching the video is that if we legalized drugs we would remove the funding source of the cartels.  Classic reverse baptist and the bootlegger theory.

Very interesting video about the GreenReliefExpo.   Unfortunately due to the fact that indica marijuana is easier to grow and that the THC content has risen by a large ratio it most of the medical marijuana available no longer stimulates thought according to the researchers I talk to.   It is ironic that this has happened after years of opposition to legalization by the beer lobby since beer is the quintessential "stop thought" drug.    It is tempting to consider this  a result of some sort of conspiracy.  However I have come to view it as a natural result of our "societal processor" where in you need the permission of idiots to do anything.  Idiots meaning politicians or worse yet those with left leaning political views.  I would have said liberals but a true liberal is libertarian.  Alas there is no liberation in left wing politics.  Only slavery and shoddy product.   Nonetheless for anyone acquainted with the history of cannabis the following video is interesting as it marks the beginning of the end of cannabis prohibition.

   Please remember that cannabis is a gateway drug to marijuana.  Ponder that while you are eating your prolapsed apple flappers!
