Uhg.  Just uhg.

Let's make coffee illegal too...since caffeine can make some people louder and more easily agitated.

They should pass a law that makes it illegal to smoke anything except the real stuff! Keep it real, keep it organic!

Elden...based on the back and forth emails between Fedora and myself on this issue, the answer to your question is "no."

Lewis Black has made a career out of being loud and angry. Perhaps we should ban him, too.

How does one smoke a large mountain?



(sorry, I tried to keep it to myself)

Meh

THE SKY IS FALLING! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!  WON"T SOMEONE THINK OF THE CHILDREN!  DO SOMETHING - ANYTHING*


Coming soon to a city council near you - a ban on all CAPS posts on the internet.

The more corrupt the republic, the more numerous the laws.  ~Tacitus, Annals

What's next?  Are you going to regulate how many sheets of toilet paper I can legally use to wipe my ass?

Every time they mention banning this crap, Last Place gets a boost in revenue from rubes buying it up.

Sounds like a bunch of crap to me, but hey, to each his own. If the real stuff was legal and regulated we wouldn't be having this conversation.

Big E is right -- Todd Fedora is hoping to raise his profile, perhaps in positioning himself to run for mayor. Thus, his "it's for the kids" proposal to ban a product in local stores that's completely ineffectual. Anyone can buy it elsewhere or online, I am sure. I never even heard of this stuff before Councilor Fedora started complaining about it.

The only thing the DNT article/news coverage did for me was to make me want to go buy some and see what all the fuss is about. The ban was passed, but doesn't go into effect for 30 days...time to stock up! hahaha

I have dealt with a child that has been in treatment over the summer for a drug addiction. It is an alternative drug that we really have no idea what it will do to us or our children in the future. I know that it just may do more damage then the real thing in the long run.  I know that it alters thinking and decision making and I don't need that to deal with along with everything else my child has been through and put me through.  One less thing in my eyes the better ... just coming from a mothers point of view.

Everyone on the city council voted for the ban because to vote no would have been political suicide.

Thus the reason politics is not only ineffective but actually harmful.

Alcohol is sooooo not dangerous.  Have you not seen all of the wonderful drivers on the bridge coming back from superior after 2am?  I mean what skill, blood alcohol levels rising and trying to beat the blue and white.

P.S.

Why does DNT choose to use disinformation to get its point across? 

"CANNABIS CRACKDOWN" - I doubt if the man was smoking the best of the best indica he would be getting into high speed chases.  Thanks DNT for blurring the lines yet again.  THE STUFF IS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO BEING CANNABIS!

Lots of my friends smoke the stuff all the time. Good guys too, usually supervisors and management position people. It "was" a legal way for an honest guy to catch a buzz in a pretty harmless manner, or thats what it came across from my point of view. I dont smoke the stuff myself, gotta stay sharp you see, but there has been a definite lack of axe wielding or seizures in my immediate circle, even though over half of them partake. I'm probably on the wrong side of this one too, so go ahead and let me know why...
