Anyone else see the episode of Penn and Teller's "Bullshit!" about the war on drugs? I just noticed its back on google video, so I thought I'd make a topic about it.
http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...352489&q=drugs
Loaded with great facts about the truth about not only weed, but the war on drugs in general.
Ha! how true:
"â?¦we wanted to check those numbers, but it's kinda' difficult, since they pulled them directly outta' their asses."
A WAR ON DRUGS IS A WAR ON CIVIL LIBERTIES....
yeah when i saw that a few weeks ago it got me hooked on penn and teller for days. i love those guys but i think the fact they they claim to have never even sipped alcohol is...Bullshit!
I watched this yesterday. "Wiener, wiener, wiener, FUCK"
The "war" on drugs was lost before it was started. It's a waste of tax payers money, and a waste of police time, when really they should be focusing on REAL criminals, you know, ones that actually are doing something wrong.
They are fishing for criminals, when we already have millions. Infact, we have so many that English Prisons are starting to become over-crowded.
I'd like to see what they do when the prisons are all full... Legalise the things that shouldnt have been made illegal in the first place, i doubt it. They'll probably go back in time and send us to Australia.
At the moment we have the worst government England has ever had. A deputy PM who shags everyone he sees, a PM who has no idea where he is... and Gordon Brown... well, what the hell can i say about him other than he's a joke, along with Pressa and Blair.
I supose when the younger generation get into power, alot of stupid laws will be changed.
I mean, at the moment in England the current drug classifications were made in 1971. Obviously times have changed, but these classifications havnt.
LSD/Magic Mushrooms/Ectascy shouldnt be in the same league as Heroin or Meth.
Most of the drug classification system is based on its effect on the user, long term effects and the amount of detremental effects on sociaty, but as we all know, cannabis has none of them, yet its still illegal.
Which only leaves one question, WHY is it illegal. If someone from government could give me just 1 good reason i wouldnt get so pissed off, but when the UN start to say that cannabis is as harmfull as heroin or cocain i cant help it. When i heard they had said that i was so angry i felt sick. Kids, who know no better are being brought up with these lies. I just hope they have enough sense to make their own opinions and not listen to thos lies, comming from a bias bunch of anti weed wanking tossers!
Thank you for your time. Go smoke a joint ;)
good post lip.... ya i rlly liked that episode lots of people should watch it cause its non-biased

this is a really good show and i agree with them most of the time. i like how the main focal point of every episode is bullshit laws and rules that are basically enforced because they always have been. because there are soooo many. and i like how the people who are on the side to keep the shitty rules and laws in place are routinely caught lying about statistics to support their point.
i like how they straight out say their opinion and that they arenot objective, but try to be fair.
you must be joking if you think bush is going to legalize he is very anti drug. maybe you missed the part about his father being the peprson repealing the medical marijuana program. to my knowledge bush was a cokehead and not a stoner but im sure hes smoked it before. but he is a hypocrite and the reason people voted him in was mainly for moral politics(you know basically the shit and laws dealing with your personal life that the governemnt has no business in). bush is a piece of shit he is more likely to pull out of iraq than legalize weed and we all know that isnt going to happen
