1. Very interesting...

Nothing happening out in this neck of the woods though, except the usual "Drug Task Force" warrant
taped to a sledgehammer or boot. What is the greater threat to your life, that bong hit you're
fixing to take or the heavily armed psyched up entry team just outside your door? You could deprive
the drug cartels of an immense amount of cash by legalization and regulation but that would make
too much sense, I guess.

Common sense means that certain interests that benefit from a bad policy will lose money. Best to stick to injustice and stupidity - at least it doesn't threaten the social order!
