Hey drug users!

[PricklyPete]

that begs the question though: wtf does all that shit go?

That shit's all bricked up and disgusting.

Canada obviously.

Not literally, but the OP makes a valid point. Drug users are largely oblivious to the fact that the money they're spending on illegal drugs funds criminal elements. It's not just terrorists or drug cartels either. It could be local gangs too. It's the desire for that money that leads the more violent of those elements to kill people to secure/expand their profits and trade.

Of course, if the government never banned these substances in the first place, creating a black market in which criminals are allowed to turn a profit, then there wouldn't be this problem either. The US experimented with prohibition in the 20s and should have learned it's lesson then with Al Capone and the like. But that was on domestic ground whereas the cartels have stayed in Mexico, so out of sight out of mind. Though if the cartels start messing around on US ground like they have been in recent months then that might motivate the government to take stronger actions.

wow. lots of people with zero experience on the issue basically repeating whatever glenn beck tells them.

here's the deal: not all drugs are purchased from the ghetto. In fact, outside of AMDhunter, there's probably no one on ATOT that wanders down MLK in their town to purchase their goodies from Jimmy the crackhead. Most know a grower. All their money goes to the grower. Done.

If you're white bagging or shooting heron, smoking crack...there's a decent chance some of your money is getting back to Mexico and/or Afghanistan. but unless you're in High School or live in the ghetto, your weed most certainly is not coming from any drug cartel. The US and Canada have much, much, much more desirable crops, which probably make far more money than shitty bricked Mexican dirt weed.

Thank you. One sensible poster on ATOT. The thing is your typical drug user lives in "lala land". If they had half a brain cell they would be well aware that their destructive behavior directly leads to thousands of dead people. This is why would should enhance laws against users as the violence increases. They are directly responsible for funding the madness in Mexico and around the world.

We need to seize their assests like the car they got busted in (even one joint) or set a minimum $10,000 fine to fund intradiction and enforcement of anti-doper laws. Maybe if we treat them like the criminal element they are they would start getting the message: People died so your mind could be fried.

see, this is what Nixon did in the 60s. Even the real conservatives today know what a fucked-up and useless waste such a policy is. hundreds and hundreds of people still serving 20-50 years for being caught with a sheet of acid. an ounce of pot. All of them non-violent offenders. All of them contributing nothing to our ecnomy now while they drain public money sitting in prison. what a fucking idiotic, archaic, and roundly rejected policy that you have proposed.

Why

THE FUCK

are you so damn stupid?

Teenagers

Awesome rant, I give this a 10/10.

 

[OCGuy]

Zin why did you fall for this troll?

Shame on ATOT.

 

[sourceninja]

If we legalized weed think of how many DEA officers would be out of work. Our unemployment rates are high enough as it is!

 

[Saint Nick]

I think a lot of people in the Middle East, including Americans, have been killed because of our thirst for oil. So, Felix, you are also feeding likely illegal activity and terrorism just by putting gas in your car.

I'm not even sure why this thread was brought up.

Son-of-a-bitch. You have a point. Maybe we need to make aspirin illegal to. I know this lady at work who's got a major addiction to that stuff if she's not drinking her COFFEE. Oh shit...I think I'm on to something...we could employ half of America in the DEA if we just banned coffee with its convenient proliferation of that nasty drug caffeine. That tainted bean makes people way to productive at work for their own good...its just not the natural way God intended.

We can just put them to work in Top secret America.

felix you are a troll par excellence or an exceptionally ignorant individual with only a surface understanding of any nonsimple issue.

Hm, I hope you're joking. Otherwise, I'm amazed by your extraordinary capability to ignore what everyone else has been saying and still be happy with yourself. There's no need to repeat what others have said or try to argue with you, as I won't get anywhere.

My best advice to you is to find some local weed and enjoy yourself. Since you won't listen to others, that's probably the only thing that will open your mind. Sounds cliché, yes, but it's true. You know, you can even vaporize it or cook with it if you're worried about hurting your lungs. Studies show that marijuana users have no loss in brain cells and are just as mentally capable as non users. My GPA has stayed the same, even after I started using. Doing quite well, with a 3.5 as a Computer Science major. So, I'm not quite sure what you're smoking, but it is obviously pretty shitty.

Oh, as a side note, I drew my avatar while I was stoned. It was really quite amazing. Too bad you can only see a small portion of it.

 

[Heller]

good advice , we should have a what ar you smoking tonight thread in atot.

 

[techs]

Hey, gasoline users, did you know your money goes to support terrorist regimes who kill innocent people?

Ooh, the ironing.

 

[Heller]

im funding the Mexican cartel, sue me.

 

[preslove]

im funding the Mexican cartel, sue me.

With those buds, you probably aren't. If you're in the Miami area, they were very likely grown in Florida.

 

[Heller]

i know i know thats just some miami indoor grown hydro. 1 blunts got my baaakkked.

 

[xCxStylex]

I honestly can't tell if this is sarcasm or if you believe this.

I've always wondered where the hell all of the mexican crap goes since I read so much about the boats and submarines and what not. All of mine is medical grade.

ghetto people & white trash have to smoke something.

Also, as a long time X user, I really don't know where any of my pills come from, nor do most people. People rumor that they're from within so cal or Mexico. I've heard about Canada, but I don't believe it, mostly because pokeballs, which are pretty much the best, cleanest, most legit shit to float around in the last couple of years, USUALLY start appearing in so cal and then float out around the west coast to Nor Cal and out.

If you're interested in tracking, check out pillreports.com and see how reports proliferate around the country and where the first ones appear.

 

[preslove]

i know i know thats just some miami indoor grown hydro. 1 blunts got my baaakkked.

Yeah, and you aren't funding a mexican cartel while doing so.

 

[zinfamous]

I think Heller achieved sarcasm.

and you managed to miss it....twice.

^ This.

How true. Pot meet kettle.

Anyway, my guess is 90%. whether the oil is from the USA or some "middle eastern" country, they're all still regimes killing innocent people.

 

[Heller]

ding! ding! ding!

 

[nerp]

My weed is grown locally.

The mexican cartels also have their hands in produce. That can of costco sauce funds terrorism.

 

[ahenkel]

I don't buy weed from Mexico because I don't like smoking brown cat piss smelling schwag.
