One OF the USA's BIGGEST HYPOCRICIES

Jabow · Sep 13, 2004

Now I'm not a (cough,cough) marijuana user but answer me this.

Why is it you get locked up and put in JAIL for YEARS for possession/using MArijuana.

And in every Supermarket/corner store drug store etc etc etc you have a product much, much more worst than marijuana.

If a headache pill is on the "market" and is deemed "dangeroug to you health" is what?

Recalled and yanked from the shelves

SO EXPLAIN TO WHY C I G G A R E T T E S
are LEGAL????????????????/

The damn SURGEON GENERAL, not your doc down the street, THE big BOSS himself says
It is VERY bad for you, thousands and thousands die from it weekly, monthly, and yet it it LEGAL.

WHY? WHY? WHY?
I have an idea, but maybe others can fill me in

I would like someone to give a rough calculation on taxes collected on ciggarettes and we will be sooooooooo astonished.

Thats my reason why I think it is, but maybe YOU poster can give another reason.

By the way, (cough,cough) I dont smoke weed.

maybe the legislators feel that its more fun to smoke their doobies when it's illegal.

Jabow-you are correct about the taxes derived from cigarettes and also that much of the economy of the "old South" depended on the harvest of the tobacco crop to feed their family.

The argument you get is the addiction from tobacco and alcohol: as compared to marijuana. (I don't know, because the few times I used marijuana--I was just plain silly and hungry as hell when the buzz wore off. Yet Alcohol took me to another world that I would just as soon forget about. I never will of course and the memories are not particularily happy ones for the most.
It hasn't been too long since the goernment banned epferhan. (Don't know how to spell it). But I think that it had been tested by the FDA earlier and found to be ok. Now BANNED! My strong guess is that the problem with ANY drug is overuse and/or abuse.
Never a pretty picture for the most part.

JABOW, if you would like to do more than vent, contact me via the website in my avatar. We can show you how to help us continuing changing laws both here in the U.S. and also in Canada.

Maybe barman could pass on here exactly what store(s) today carry this product: "Ephedrine".

Those stores don't happen to only be in Florida, I hope. Unless of course they have figured out how to fix their voting machines.

Kaya man, interesting stuff indeed.

But Its so amazing to see that cigs are legal over weed.

With all the different vocal groups and organizations out there everyone still seem to be so quiet about it.

Its not that I'm Pro marijauna but with the facts so vivid regarding cigs and marijuana its unbelieveable that its illegal for one

AND GET THIS is LEGAL for the one that IS MORE POTENT AND DEADLY, and if thats not all

THE GOVERNMENT COLLECTS CASH , CASH,MONEY, DINERO< MOOLAH, FOR THE SALE OF EACH AND EVERY ONE SOLD.
