National Drugs Task Force. . . .

Hey all, nice to see this board picking up again after a dry patch, good to see Kongo still holding this place up!

Hey Sunnyse, good to see you here too friend.

Cannabis has been a scapegoat for a long time. There is nothing new under the sun.

Think about the 'War on Drugs'...ask any politician if he/she thinks they can win the war...winning the war meaning eradicating drug abuse from society.

The answer will always and invariably be no, the War on Drugs can not be won.

The obvious follow on question then is 'Why fight a war you know you can never win?' Why? Why?? WHY???

I think what would work in relation to cannabis, is mass civil disobedience. However getting a bunch of stoners politically motivated is no easy task!

Peace

Well bouy:thumbsup:

We already have mass civil disobedience, over 300,000 irish people smoke dope. The only result is that our courts are clogged up and our gardai in the street are wasting their time. Every local newspaper is full of court cases in provincial courts where guys are getting a record for having a scrap of soap bar. What a fuc*ing joke.
Meanwhile our roads are like a crash derby

All true Sunnyse, I saw they were particularly heavy handed at Oxygen, paying special attention to the henious crime of 'Cannabis smoking'.

Anyone hitting the 'Electric Picnic' in Stradbally, Co Laois, this year?

Peace
