    Think about how stupid that is. The government outlaws a plant, a living thing that grows in the ground. Marajuana. Because it has some medicinal values and makes one feel good and lifts ones earthly burdens for a while. For that it is a crime for this plant to even exist.

    They might of outlawed plants, but like the complete fuckwits that they are they did so before they outlawed guns. That government is to incompetent to even get tyranny right is a blessing to us all and a warning to the first dipshit that tries to put me in cell for growing or smoking or distributing said plant.

    However, it is a crime for you to exist.

    This is why I do not believe in God.

    I wonder how much money a pot tax would bring in to the country if we legalized and regulated it. It's always gonna be grown, sold and used, wouldn't it be better it that money was being put to better use? I think so. :whoa:

    That and all the money spent on enforcement of this arcane law could be saved. Of course this is is part of the problem for it to be legalized, as a lot of federal, state, and local employee jobs exist to enforce this law.

    I don't know how it is in Ireland, but here if they find some existing on your property that is a crime.
