In The Vast Majority Of The World, Marijuana Is Illegal

Post by Ben Zonia » Sun Mar 31, 2024 12:22 pm

Map of world shows that in the vast number of countries, Marijuana is illegal. In many countries, marijuana offenses carry the death penalty, including Communist China, where there are around 500 executions each year for marijuana offenses.

They must have a reason. Be careful of countries whose political systems you want to emulate, and of certain people who are now emulating them in many ways politically in the US. Persecution, prosecution, and execution of political enemies has always occurred in Fascist, Communist, and otherwise totalitarian countries. And it makes absolutely no sense to say that you are Anti Fascist, but Pro Communist or advocate Communist ideas in this country.

Well that's timely..

I'm in Amsterdam and enjoyed this brownie just yesterday. Sex for pay is also legal, in fact the sex workers are unionized and have terrific benefits. The men and women stand in about 270 windows around town like a vending machine. I think they had an Easter special today.

The Dutch are not communists, they are capitalist without the prudish America hang ups. Ben, you have to admit, many Priests have problems with children. They could benefit from this.

Amsterdam's Red Light District.

The Netherlands has become a narco state.

And about those Priests. Clergyman of all faiths, TEACHERS, COACHES, POLITICIANS, and other occupations, where there is private access to children, all have this problem. They've singled out Priests. Remember the saying about finger pointing.

We've only begun to know what Jeffrey Epstein's "empire" included, and who visited there. Obviously an international operation for blackmailing of powerful people.

Since you didn't read the article, let me highlight that one politician gave a quote calling the Netherlands a narco state. He sounds just as crazy as you...

Did you take the weekend off your meds? You've been posting crazy again.

Apparently, your "meds" are illegal in this country. So you went to Amsterdam. What's your next stop, Bangkok?

Pot is legal in Michigan, and about 34 other states. Bangkok? Missing another of your batshit references. You realize that I'm not a priest, right?

Asian Americans are far less likely to use Marijuana than other ethnic groups. Is that because they are "smarter" to choose not to use it, or are they "smarter" because they don't use it? I have to respect them for that either way.

Studies have shown that regular marijuana use lowers IQ scores by an average of 8 points.

So what I'm hearing is that the government should seize Christian propaganda networks like smile FM and switch them to reefer radio?

Sounds like you’ve got some sympathies with China and the DPRK. Have you thought about moving there? I’ll help you pack.

Am I the only one asking why anyone vacationing in Amsterdam would spend time debating on mibuzzboard? Maybe ride a bike thru the city, venture the canals, see a Van Gogh. Not TC. He'd rather argue with a nutball.

Just for clarification, pursuant to 21 U.S.C. Section 844, Marijuana possession is illegal at the federal level in this country.

This is true, but I think it should be a state's choice issue.
