moon sky 1/30/2013 10:08:16 PM ReportI dont understand why the cops cant go after the guys selling crack, cocaine,pills..things that can acually kill you...Weed is a plant that is grows from a seed or a clone.. I havent heard of anyone over dosing on the stuff..maybe eating to much when the munchies hit you..

JellyFisch 1/30/2013 10:38:54 PM ReportYes beej. Well understood. What stumps me is that you're surprised with the thought that It did go over my head. Sounds like you've gotten to know my intellect or personality. You're a good judge of character on somebody who just posted their first comment ever on sootoday.

seen_your 1/31/2013 7:03:46 AM ReportWhy do the police overvalue marijuana all the time?
nowayman 1/31/2013 7:10:46 AM ReportThank you!!! makemyday. I think you have said it right. Have a great day everyone
Bad Dawg 1/31/2013 8:16:21 AM ReportThey over estimate the amount seized because they can say they took so much off more the streets. I agree they need to start busting the pillheads who believe it or not are worse than crackheads.
hunti 1/31/2013 8:34:49 AM ReportWell here we go again someone charged for marijuana,go after the true drug traffickers,you know Mr.Police Officer the one's that are selling pill's,oh ya forgot you need to keep your snitch's on the street so you can get the one's that smoke marijuana instead.Now a day's you can do more time for smoking marijuana than you can for murder,pretty sad.Does anybody know the stat's on how many people are sitting in our Canadian prison's for marijuana,would like to know.
crashed13 1/31/2013 10:14:56 AM ReportLove how they up the price on these drug busts to make it sound larger then they realy are.
$20 a gram works out to $570 a ounce . LOL
Hope the Government never sells legal pot,nobody could afford it.
Tom_Bom 1/31/2013 10:31:48 AM ReportWhen will we come together as a sensible group of adults and learn, that marijuana is not the problem. in a census sent out, more than half the Canadian population admitted to having used it in their life time. Does half of Canada deserve to go to jail?
Prohibition is the drug problem, because instead of the government selling it and taxing the butt off of it and making money, they leave it in the hands of organized crime who then profit off it. If marijuana was legalized today, organized crime would be crippled, we'd have more money to give to the police force to take them down, and society would be a lot better off.
According to the Surgeon Generals report, 0 people have ever died from a Pot overdose as it is physically impossible. It is far less harmfull than alcohol and tobacco, and science is discovering that it has anti cancer properties.
Why can't we all get together and lobby for legalization, benefit from the tax money, cripple organized crime, and stop demonizing the drug and making it into something it's not?
I haven't partaken since highschool which was years ago, but anyone with a good head on their shoulders knows that right now its easier to get pot than it is alcohol, because its readily available and organized crime doesn't put an age limit on it. If it were legalized, we could put an age limit on it, get it out of the hands of our children, and let responsible adults over the age of 19 decide if they want to partake or not.
The war on drugs will never end, but legalizing marijuana would be a huge step forward it dealing it a huge blow, and thus dealing organized crime a huge blow as well, taking away their biggest cash crop.
Thank you for your time.
