    peyote, psilocybe mushrooms, LSA(hallucinogenic precursor to LSD), DMT, not to mention caffeine and theobromide(chocolate feel-good drug) all are naturally occuring substances, some of which occur in your brain (DMT) while you dream. Prohibition is prohibition, and personally I’d be satisfied if just weed were legal, but the RIGHT thing is to not limit the freedom of any person to put whatever HE/SHE SEES FIT into his/her body.

  Well written. Thank you. I just recently had the MJ debate with a couple of friends and was shocked and saddened to discover that, essentially, they would deny me the only thing that makes me want to continue breathing in the face of being sick because of other people’s bad decisions that I didn’t even have anything to do with, and a refusal to realize that the only reason they believe MJ is bad is because they grew up in a society that told them to.

  i would caution that employing the state’s nomenclature, and lending recognition to the state’s bias legal interpretation leads to slippery assumptions about the very nature of the drug trade. there is no body of crime in a drug transaction, therefore neither a drug purchaser nor a drug dealer is a criminal in a true sense; as in the example of a … Read Morerobbery or a rape; it is a socialist moral biased to think otherwise. progressives want to use state power to reverse state policy and precedent. this is the problem with progressivism, it does not solve problems. rather, is perpetuates the state’s recurring 50 year cycle of oppression and reconciliation. this is what happened in the case of civil rights. progressive statists claim the mantle of the civil rights movement, but was it not the state that created jim crow in the first place? and was it not a religious leader, not a state agent, that served as the catalyst for civil disobedience that ended jim crow. i bring this up because in the case of drug war, the state has managed to oppress blacks further, despite civil rights; the drug war is the state’s lateral shift in the oppression of blacks. just look at prison statistics. the answer, is to severely limit state power in the first place, abolish the nanny state, and allow free markets (now black markets) and a paradigm of personal responsibility and self sufficiency.

  You choose not to use drugs, so no one should be able to choose to use them?

  There I believe, is your slippery slope. Taking personal freedoms from people based on your moral objectivity.

    Brilliant article.
    Brilliant post.
    I do not do drugs but I believe that it is not anyone’s business what another person puts into their own bodies.

  “the drug war accounts for the unlawful redistribution of wealth from free market entrepreneurs into the socialist prison industry. this is the catalyst for the increased militarization of law enforcement and the dismantling of the constitution. it is also responsible for giving the supposed freest nation on earth the highest incarceration rate in the world. it has also contributed to the bankrupting of our system by spending over $600 per second of our taxes, now the state is broke and borrows money from a communist nation with the highest execution rate in the world to cover its racist drug war. it is a literal war that should be answered militarily by the citizenry.”

  The feasibility of all out legalization might not seem present in today’s society. However, when one analyzes the pharmaceutical industry and identifies the molecules within the plethora of ‘drugs’ that are ‘given’ to citizens, it is fairly easy to address the double standards and contradictions that consistently flood our media and publications. Cannabis will be the vehicle of this ‘battle’. Simple experiments can be administered by common people. There just happens to be a group of people in this country that have seen and heard it all in their lives and have finally dropped all prior plagued programming and have opened there minds to LIFE. This group I speak of is the retiring community of the baby boomers. This group is, in fact, the leverage necessary for collective understanding of truth. Many of these individuals have never seen ‘pot’ (i despise that word) like today. The mere act of informing them (in person) of these strains first hand is really the only driving factor needed for the end of disinformation about the sacred plant. One must only watch the television for five minutes to notice the target segment of the seniors and its implications in the pharm industry. I know how much the older dislike medications. I happen to know for a fact that many have already ceased taking most of their meds and seek alternatives that are natural and beneficial, contrary to the synthetic ‘skittles’ the ‘doctors’ tell them to consume, following endorsement criteria. Much of the rigidity of the opposition can be rooted in this group of people. It isn’t necessarily their fault, though, with a little exposure to additive free cannabis, the seniors of this country embrace it with open arms. They are not scared of prison. They have seen this world shift with the most contrast. They are not afraid to speak out as a whole. I support the legalization of all drugs and embrace responsible, accountable action, though, find only cannabis serving significance. Nonetheless, i feel that most of the drugs of today will gradually fade away (this is pharma’s nightmare) when the collective knowledge of health and all things conducive to it is shared by all. Many have already seen this happen within their peer groups. We all know what some drugs do to the body. I think is time that all people have the opportunity to administer and participate in valid and controlled experimentation with proper dependent and independent variables while making their conclusions about what drugs do what to them; this is the primary way to acheive accurate results applicabe to each individual. We are all unique and share many qualities. In fact, people are so different (physiologically) that many children are prescribed amphetamines for academic acceleration and some college students can score highly in accounting and actually think critically after the use of cannabis (or without). The war on personal freedom is falling apart. Tyranny is shifting to liberty. This is evident in the lack of fear of the govenment by the people. We must all ask ourselves: are the ones in charge of our health really devoted to facilitating it? This is very easy to answer with very little research. It seems as if someone wants everyone to catch the BUG and take the SHOT, but if cannabis is conducive to health without the need for innoculation$ and free from nature, then it must be the devil’s lettuce. Incoherent, insiduous forces from within have ostracized themselves from the unity of the people. Good Riddance. OneLove.

  Thanks for the post. I wrote a paper at Gov. State covering those issues as a portfolio piece 3 years ago, got me an A and 3 credit hours for 16 pages. Prohibition: It still doesn’t work. Here is a section from the introduction: Abraham Lincoln once said: “Prohibition will work great injury to the cause of temperance… For it goes beyond the bounds of reason in that it attempts to control a man’s appetite by legislation and makes a crime out of things that are not crime. A prohibition law strikes a blow at the very principles upon which our government was founded”.
  Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
