Yearbook article focuses on students smoking pot

[proud2BlibKansan]

High school publications have long triggered controversy, court fights and even warring state laws over teen limits in Missouri and Kansas.

The article does not suggest any downside to puffing away.

2. K2 - another example of why the war on some drugs is FAIL STUPID

The illegal drug: marijuana, is remarkably safe, while K2 is, well, nobody is quite sure what it is. The WOSD drives out safe recreational drugs and replaces them with unknown entities. People continue to get high, and will do so with whatever is available, generally without much concern for what those substances might do to them. If the goal is harm reduction, and honestly at this point who can make that claim with a straight face, then the war on some drugs is full of the stupid, and a complete failure.
