Elected last Sunday, Evo Morales wants to fully legalize coca growing. Bolivia is the third largest supplier of cocaine, chewing of the leaf is culturally accepted though repressed thanks to us white folk.
"I challenge the United States to create a real alliance to fight narcotrafficking," - Morales

I will be following this story,, I like the man.
yeah this morales is maybe considered a terrorist by some americans, but he shares the same goal...Freedom
I did a report on Cocaine one time and was rather suprised. The actual Coca leaf is really a healthy item. Has most of the recommended daily requirements and is also non-addictive. When it goes through the chemical process to make Cocaine is where it gets it's addictive nature and loses a lot of it's health benifits.
The leaves of the coca plant are used by Andean Indians to relieve fatigue and pangs of hunger, but also provide some nutritive value. Duke, Aulik & Plowman (1975) found that 100 gm of Bolivian coca leaves satisfied the dietary allowance for calcium, iron, phosphorous, vitamin A, vitamin B and vitamin E.

yep ive read that too! Big fan of Zappa too!
I find it VERY amuzing that Coca-Cola initially had Coca as one of it's main ingredients. Imagine it, with the amount of soda kids drink these day! LOL The fuckin' doctors would have ALL kids on Ritilin to counter the effects of drinking Coca-Cola!
Buy Coca tea from Peru on line....for medicinal purposes of course!! :D

The usa says that the usa needs to spend 3 billion per year to protect american kids from the horrors of the deadly addictive coca crop. To do this we invade columbia and its neighboring countries, using chemicals that are produced by monsanto to destroy the crop.(and any other crop it lands on)
The usa government says " we will not allow a country to grow a crop that endangers the lives of american citizens"
Meanwhile....back in the good ol us of a....
We grow the deadly addicitve tobacco crop which kills, according to the usa surgeon generals office,
430,000 american died from tobacco last year
54,000 american died from second hand smoke
17,000 babies never made it out of the womb alive bcause mother used tobacco while pregnant
134 died from cocaine intoxication(one hundered and thirty four)
You see folks...the usa doesnt care so much whether or not we are addicited to drugs. They care about who's drugs it is that we are addicted to.
I will tell you this without batting an eye that america grown tobacco kills more columbians, than columbian grown cocaine kills americans.
A person(usually poor) who gives birth/or is pregnant to/with a child in america and is known to use cocaine is arrested and charged with endangering the life of an unborn child.
A person who uses deadly addictive tobacco and gives birth to a baby, be it dead or alive, is sent home with condolences and a tobacco patch and told "better luck next time".
The chemicals used on the poor people of Columbia are banned from use in the usa because they are too dangerous and we dont know the long term effects of them.
dai*ma :mad:
There's a rich man in his summer home
saying "just leave well enough alone"
well, his pants are down, his covers blown
and the politicans throwing stones
so the kids they dance and shake their bones
'cause its all to clear that we are on our own
ashes to ashes we all fall down :p
Well said Daima.
Insanity? i'll take a double
Heres to all the left handed people in a right-handed world *toast*
Here's to those of us who dont fit in. My hopes are that we never do *toast*
dai*ma :stoned:
Tension
Tension
I got tension and its all that i know
I got tension in my healthfood
I got tension in my choices
I got tension and its every where i go
The new pesident is nothing more than a lap dog for Castro and Chavez. Pee-ons.
Hugo Chavez is a good man. He was elected by the overwhelming majority of the people of Venezuela. Unlike gdubya who was elected by the courts his father helped put in place.
dai*ma :cool:
gdubya = bad plant
cannabis = good plant
Cuba sends more MD's to disasters around the globe than any other nation on earth. Kids in Cuba school have a literacy rate of about 95%
Kids in amerikkka? 30%
dai*ma :cool:
well genius, the supreme court upheld Floridas CONSTITUTION when W won the election in 2000, they didnt vote on who won idiot. Go back to class.Quote:

The courts in america, like their political friends have been taken over by special interests groups. William Buckleys statement shows us that. Or it shows those of us who can see two feet in front of us.
You seem to have faith in your government and the courts it appoints. I am happy for you.
I have zero confidence in either. The usa is the number one threat to world peace today.
My dick doesnt seem to get as hard as yours does when i hear pro-amerikkkan rhetoric.
We got preachers dealing in politics and diamond mines
and their speech is growing increasingly unkind
they say they are christ deciples
but they dont look like jesus to me
and it feels like i'm living in the wasteland of the free
We got politicians running races on corporate cash
now dont tell me they dont turn around and kiss thise peoples ass
you may call me "genius"
but that dont fit my picture of a true democracy
and it feels like i'm living in the wasteland of the free
We got CEO's making two hundred times the workers pay
but they'll fight like hell against raising the minimum wage
and if you dont like it mister they'll ship your job
to some third world country across the sea
Living in the wasteland of the free
where the poor have now become the enemy
let's blame our troubles on the weak ones
sounds like some kind of Hitler remedy
Living in the wasteland of the free
We got little kids with guns fighting inner city wars
so what do we do, we put these little kids behind prison doors
and we call ourselves the advanced civilization
but that sounds like crap to me
and it feels like i'm living in the wasteland of the free
We kill for oil, then throw a party when we win
some guy/girl refuses to fight and we call that the sin
but (s)he standing up for what (s)he believes in
and that sounds pretty damn american to me
living in the wasteland of the free
While we sit gloating in our greatness
justice is sinking to the bottom of the sea
right here in the wasteland of the free
dai*ma :p
Yo Amsterdam,
Why dont you go back to class, Gdubya was not elected by the people, Senor Morales was get over it...........
Amsterdam seems to suffer from SNN syndrom.(selective news network) He like many of his fellow americans have a well rehearsed view on issues such as Venezuela. They dont depend on accuracy. They depend on weaponry.
They depend on lies.
They depend on people who cant even tell the truth about a plant to be honest with them about whats happening around them.
dai*ma :smokin:
This is a sing-a-long.... Jump on in Amsterdam ........
And yourrrrrrr .........flag decal wont get you into heaven anymore
they're already over-crowded from your dirty little wars
now jesus dont like killin no matter what the reason for
and your flag decal wont get you into heaven anymore Yee Ha!!!!
