I see the evil desperate "used to be rich" people with the power they have left will destroy all efforts to legalize any kind of drugs.. IN FACT!!! I see that even more substances will be made into "illegal 'drugs' " ... b/c then they will have more opportunities to "fine" (aka steal your money) you for possession of w/e they make illegal.. I wouldn't be surprised if they try to make Vitamin C illegal in the next 10 years or something lol... making substances necessary for life is taking the "war on drugs" WAYYYYYYY TOO far... but thats where it is going people. SO step it up and stop blogging about it and get out there and start businesses, make money, network and gain power... once you have become quote on quote successful you will have the POWER and MEANS to actually CHANGE shit in society! YA SEE!!!

Not everyone has good business sense, or even an inkling of political fibre... but we can all get involved!

I was thinking about putting out some flyers, mass-production style. A public service message on every billboard in the area. Anyone can do it! Any message can be posted anywhere, and who better to do it than those whom have the most angst?

Full-color, full-page copies can be made at most public libraries for about 10 cents a sheet.

Any person who has access to a printer can totally fucking plaster a billboard anywhere.

I'm mentioning this because becoming powerful to gain influence over legislation isn't an option available to everyone!

Isn't Florida one of the harshest of the US states regarding drug laws? A win for Florida might win the entire board. Freedom Of Mind For Everyone!

Florida has some of the harshest weed laws in the country. But Florida also has the most lax prescription narcotics enforcement in the universe. Case in point (this is from yesterday):

House kills plan for drug monitoring database

TALLAHASSEE — With little debate Thursday morning, the House health and human services committee voted to eliminate the state’s plan for prescription drug monitoring database.

The proposal is a top priority of House Speaker Dean Cannon and Gov. Rick Scott, who say the database doesn’t help solve the problem of prescription drug abuse and is an invasion of privacy.

“That database only tracks the problem, it doesn’t solve it,” said committee chairman Robert Schenck, R-Spring Hill. The database was supposed to be up and running by December, but bid protests delayed its launch. An administrative judge this week resolved the dispute, and the maker of OxyContin offered to donate $1 million over the next two years to pay for the program.

Schenck dismissed that offer from Purdue Pharma, saying it’s like the “fox guarding the henhouse.”

Before the vote to eliminate the database, the committee passed a bill that would prohibit doctors from dispensing narcotics, making the drugs largely available only at pharmacies. The bill also would eliminate registration and inspection of pain clinics, and a ban on felons owning pain clinics. And it would require wholesale distributors of narcotics to report who they are selling the drugs to so law enforcement officials can identify unusually large purchases. The bill calls for appropriating $1.5 million to track down the large, non-pharmacy dispensaries and return the drugs to wholesalers.

The database and regulations of pain clinics are laws that were passed in recent years, but Schenck said there’s no evidence those solutions will work.

“I truly we believe we need an approach that stops the supply, not tracks the problem,” Schenck said. “This stops the supply before another addict is created.”

He also noted that there’s no requirement for doctors and prescribers to input information into the database, which means scofflaws aren’t likely to participate.

“If you’re a bad-performing doctor that’s operating a pill mill or pain clinic, why would you use the database anyway? It’s not like you’re on a high moral ground to begin with,” he said. The tracking of wholesalers, he said, “will give us a much better picture of where these narcotics are being distributed and given out in an abusive way.”

Even supporters of the dispensing ban by doctors expressed concerns that there would be ways around the law if it passes. Some pill mill operators already have pharmacies in their clinics, and others could open pharmacies or create partnerships with existing pharmacies.

Schenck said he understands that the bill may have some flaws.

“Are there other loopholes to game the system that might spring out? Potentially. I am open to closing those,” he said. “It is my absolute intent to stop this practice in the state of Florida.”

*I'm actually not certain about FL being tops in the universe. There could be intelligent populations somewhere in some galaxy that allow unfettered access to schedule 2 opiates.

Yep, it's called Mexico.

..along with many other places with extremely relaxed/unenforced drug laws.
 
No way, making marijuana legal only under "regulation" will just spawn a system that tracks every single "smoker" in the country and the industries will fuck up the bud.. Just have it be straight up legal, same as if you were to grow a tomato plant... its no one business how you use the plant..

What thesaurus did the writer of that article get that gem from?

I also agree with Sackynut in saying that if pharmucitical companies were able to somehow patent and sell marijuana then it would be legal in no time flat.
