   i’ll smoke some nuggets to that. what else do i have to do? my father lives many miles away. it’s a rainy day and i’ve spent the last few hours feeding the geese and ducks.

   time to whip out the mike oldfield, david gilmour and get out the jerome baker.

   happy father’s day douglas.

   what? you can’t mention drugs on belowthebeltway? talking about smoking a spliff or putting dank in a jerome baker, isn’t like talking about doing rails of anhydrous ammonia crank or nothing.

   i guess…”I believe in the free speech that liberals used to believe in…”

   John Stossel is dead on. If the horror stories were true, then all of the states that legalized/decriminalized would be overrun with drug related crime waves. San Fransisco is probably the most liberal of all and it’s a much nicer place to live than Chicago, Detroit, Baltimore, etc etc etc.

   if they legalized and regulated you could also get quality stuff. most of the charly that comes through is so cut up it’s like meth and more unsafe. i’ve done heroin before and i have to be honest, i’d be very wary about legalizing it. there is want that is totally unreal and unfathomable. plus once you’re bodies submits to opium you’ll always be addicted to opiates.

   Not only would the quality go up – making most drugs safer and require less to get high, but the money being spent on enforcement could go to education and treatment programs.
