Just saw on the news that the U.S. will not be importing anymore candian beef due to their outbreaks of "mad cow" disease.

Guess we will just have to settle for the vast amounts of illegal narcotics that cross over their border every year.

btw, the mad cow was one cow in Alberta. There have been no other cases so far.

Uh, i think you guys are dreaming on the cannabis thing too.

California and Mexico are the largest providers of cannabis to the states.

The beef between the States and Canada about Cannabis is because of Canadas decision to decriminalize the stuff (not unlike quite a few states down south).

By decriminalizing cannabis, we get to free up our judicial system from all the dumb arse possession of a joint charges that get in the way of getting the real criminals where the belong.

Anyway, the american government likes to push all these "wars on stuff" and this more accepting or at least tolerant view makes their hairs stand up because the reality of it will show the statesmen who go for the war on this and the war on that what a load aof poppy**** they are pushing on the folks there.

Do politicians really think people are so stupid as to believe all that stuff they tend to throw out at us as truth? We have our share of morons in office here too. way too many of them. But, things never change do they.

You just have your panties in a bunch because you know I am right and your country is one big drug pusher. Try to make some logical sense when you guys rant about illegal firearms and weapons of mass destruction.

Canada is the biggest kiddie pimp of grass to the untied states.
California is not even close but Mexico sure is the other bad boy in the bunch.

Take pride in the fact that right now some 13 year old kid is gettting high on Canadian weed. Feel the pride.:rolleyes:

David Jamieson

The thing about teenagers is that they tend to do whatever it is you tell them not to.

This is also common in the rest of the population demographs. The more you want to press someone down with what you think, the more they are going to find a way to do what it is you don't want them to do.

At least, this has been my experience in what I've seen and done myself. I think every kid out there has done something that is considered unacceptable to the status quo, that's part of being a kid.

But you see, cannabis doesn't present the imminent danger that people would have you believe. Quite a few people are aware now that it was made illegal because of William Randolph Hearst (Big American wealthy tycoon) wanted to get out of his commitments to the Kentucky Hemp farmers who supplied him with his paper.

He then went off, bought huge tracts of land in washington state and deforested them so he could use his new process of making paper from trees.

In short, he was responsible for a lot of the forestry problems we have today. Hemp is more recyclable (longer fibres than trees), makes better paper and paper products, and is a quickly renewable resource. So, Hearst finances a couple of scare films and tags the plant with a mexican slang word "marajuana" and tells the american public that it's evil and if you use it you will go insane and start killing people. hahahahahaha...yeesh. The Feds pass a law making "marajuana" illegal. 2 days after the law passes, the AMA (american mediacl association) asks the question "what the heck is marajuana?". When they are told by the feds that it is cannabis, they freak out! This plant is incredibly useful for its compounds as a medicinal wonder drug of sorts. (it's not just for smoking and goofing kids). Since then, all by products of cannabis have had to be purchased from outside the country and are a controlled substance. Kind of like shooting yourself in the foot for the sake of one mans fortune and wealth. To bad money is the ultimate leash on the politicians. Stupid greedy morons all. Probably 1 good person in 1000 when it comes to politicians. If that!

btw, I don't agree with the idea of anyone that is in their teens using any recreational drugs whatsoever. Their bodies are growing and any substance you injest has effects on that growth.
Once your body has grown to it's mature form, then by all means do what you want, but do it in moderation.

-Black Jack, if you can show me once where I said it's ok for kids to smoke drugs I'll give you a shiny new nickle. What is it with you right wing alarmists always needing to put words in other peoples mouths anyway?

Those reasons are fine I just have seen the other side of grass and lets just say I don't want any part of it and their are a LOT of loser tokkers out their.

People that light up when their kids are in the house, people that drive high, people that role out of bed and light up, people that instead of investing the money for their kids or pre-paying bills will go spend $100 bucks + on grass without thinking yet they ***** about paying their phone bill, people that have to be high when they do anything, not to mention the losers who grow and sell the stuff right out of their own house when they have kids and yet they are so mind-blasted they really think these kids are not going to notice that mom and dad do drugs, or worse the welfare cases that find the cash to buy it.

Its a whole mind assine mindset. I have seen it also become a gateway drug that turned into a heron death much later. You think the guy would of just jumped right into hardcore drugs...bs.

If you are a mature adult go ahead but don't except everybody to go with the choice.

Kung Lek- You did not really answer my question so I just assumed, like I still assume because you still really did not give me a direct answer, Canada imports drugs and kids smoke Canadas drugs, you dont seem to be for outlawing weed in your beatnick side of town, and what is it with you liberal control freaks that makes you believe that everyone is stupid and that they can not function without the assistance of big bro?

David Jamieson
05-21-2003, 10:31 AM
MP- the story I gave is abridged to be sure. But it is in essence what happened. If you want to know the story, it's not to hard to find out the facts on what caused cannabis to become illegal in North America.

Hearst is the primary player and it has to do with paper from hemp versus paper from tree fibre. Hearst used the drug angle to get his way. btw, hemp used fo paper has hardly any of the active drug in it at all, it's really amazing how he got away with it.

Can you tell me or show me where another side is? Cause I've looked and so far, that is why it was made illegal.

Did you know that in Canada, it is considered a "narcotic"? And that it is in law under the narcotic control act here. Meanwhile, chemically, it is hardly even similar to narcotics.

Dang "look say" schooling and the dumbing of society! ahahaha. people hardly understand the meanings behind words anymore don't they?

Amazing....

It's all a problem of too much information. There's so much people don't bother to consider either context or source. Critical thinking skills are a bit rare. While that wasn't a problem earlier, the explosion in sheer data volume means any idiot can type something out full of wrong data and have some other idiot believe it. It used to take credibility and an argument to get published.

BJ-

"gateway" drugs are also a scare tactic used to push the agendas of those who want you to think what they are selling.

By the logic of the gateway drug diatribe, and as George Carlin once said, "Mothers milk leads to heroin".

Drugs are a huge source of income for the middle people who bring them into the market. Remember the Iran Contra scandal? Remember Noriega? Who do you think was making the money from those drug deals? Who gets that money now.

And if they can take a picture of my a.s.s in a box from outer space, why can't they find out who is bringing all the evil drugs into the country?

The homegrower certainly isn't the problem. The problem is that organized crime goes unchecked because of a self castrated legal system that allows it to grow. Your basic Hell's Angels or Bandidos member is not a simple social club person. They are organized criminals and they flaunt it and there is nothing in the law that allows the law to do anything about them, their clubs or their activities. Same goes fr your various mafia families and street gangs and what have you.

These groups, particularly the street gangs, sprout from a deeper social ailment. The ailment of apathy, the haves and the have nots. It's not that grey, and it's not that hard to identify and make right what is wrong with our societies respectively. Instead, as a group, we chose not to.

Here is another thing that decrimanilizing will do. It will take the trafficing of drugs out of the hands of the underground. It will decrease the profits to be had from them and in turn will negate the greedy ones from turning all the profit on it. It will also put cannabis into a position where it can be monitored to the level that alcohol is.

Kids drink too btw, but it is hard for them in many cases to get their hands on booze as readily as they can acquire drugs.

A trip to a buddies house or a known street corner is easier than passing for an adult at a controlled environment of a liquor store.

mmm.... this ones too good for me to miss.

Ok... where to start.... where to start....
Alright. First things first... Potheads are like talking to eggplants.
Eggplants dont talk.... Apparently potheads do because if you read the pot and kung fu thread, then you would have seen that a good majority of people on here smoke pot.
Ill give it to you, there are a few stereotypical dumb ass potheads. There are also a few ignorant stereo typical rednecks, essays, thugs, ect. Thats why they are called stereotypes. A stereotype is a generalization, generalizations are very ignorant to make. Its actually a form of racism, being biased against a group of people due to the actions of a few.
People who get high and drive, roll out of bed smoke, ect.
I fall under this one. Ive also been pulled over high, taken tests high, ect. Did I go to jail? no. Did I get a 1380 on the SAT's? yes.
Potheads are useless and lazy.
Thats why I have a 32,000 a year job WHILE I GO TO COLLEGE?
yeah. Thats also why I work out 5 days a week.
Pot and families - I have a friend who lives a 500,000$ house (thats a big ass house here, keeping in mind cost of living) who tokes up on a regular basis with his family. His parents make completely legit money. Well, lets just say that his relationship with his parents is quite a bit better than mine, whose parents have strong distaste for pot.
Pot isnt a narcotic, its a weak barbituate, and a mild hallucinogen.
Uses of pot-
Better rope
Fabric
Paper
Oil
Lubricant
and enormous number of foods
Legalizing pot could do wonderful things for america, but the cia would lose a lot of money in their drug trafficing.
A Gateway substance? no more than alcohol.
Example : I smoke daily, but I hate drugs. Im pizzed off that these panlor they gave me for my arm f*ck me up so much, had the doctor call in a perscription for a much weaker drug this morning.

Dont try to tell me glass pipe is a crack pipe either, most of us "dumb ass potheads" know that metal causes cancer due to the aluminum...

I agree, stereotypes do exist. Mostly in the views of those that create them though which is unfortunate, because that creates another stereotype, "the crazy typecaster" :D

If you practice Kungfu for the natural high, you are getting high, if you have a couple of beers after work, you are getting high, if you smoke cigarettes, drink coffee or tea or meditate or whatever, each and everyone of these methods and substances is being "used" to alter your own perception of what otherwise is considered to be a "lesser" reality.

Human beings are not in my opinion the amazing animal we tout ourselves as. It is really interesting how disconnected we are from reality on individual levels. We subject ourselves to external distraction in myriad form. For me, this is only indicative of teh human condition and for me what is key is acceptance of the human condition in it's many forms.

Is not all there is, enough? Apparently not, or things would be quite different on the level of physical manifestation.

It's one thing to have a method that you use to destress or that you use as a coping strategy considering all the stresses that fill our lives.

It is another thing entirely to be escapest. People who are constantly in need of medicating themselves in order to cope were losers a long time before they picked up that joint and lit it. (Of course I don't mean those people who are actively pursuing a medical solution to an actual physical problem)

Of COURSE its a cannabinoid. That's like saying that morphine is an Opiate.

Receptors aren't genes. They're specially shaped proteins specifically adapted to latch on to a particular molecular shape.

FWIW, what's your point w/regards to CB1 receptors being found in the Gastrointestinal tract? That has next to nothing to do with oh, anything. Acetylcholine receptors are found in and around nerves involved in sympathetic and parasympathetic tissues...but that doesn't exactly MEAN anything, does it?

Wasn't Darwin speaking more of systems than individuals? In otherwords, don't "losers" essentially hold back groups of "winners" that are part of their group so that no one group of winners dominates too well, overextends their influence, and risks extinction of the whole?:D

No, actually bio is not anything like my field of expertise, so I will admit I'm speaking somewhat out of my arse, but I remember reading years ago that Darwin was highly annoyed by what some did with his theories, especially industry, because, for social creatures, cooperation was a majorly important thing, far more important than many specific physical traits, and that, in social creatures, individuals that seemed to be unimportant enabled the high functioning to function at all, or some such crap, whereas people got fixated on who was high functioning and who wasn't, or, again, some such crap.

"Receptors aren't genes. They're specially shaped proteins "
You are correct, my apologies. As I have already said, this panlor makes it hard to think. The point being, that they dont directly help in the synthesizing in protiens, not in any way that doctors have found. Yet, when you close them off, the body starts to reject protiens. why? they arent yet sure, but it shows that the cannibinoid receptors have a higher use, we're just not sure what yet.
Try to tell me thats not legit. We still dont know what 80% of our brain does, but that doesnt mean we dont need it. The point of that study was to try and get the gov't to lax a little, let people start testing medical effects a little more, seeing what can be done.
I smoke daily, several times a day. I have arthritis in both knees, but thats not why I smoke. Not to escape either, just more of a habit. Im not any less intelligent, less active, ect when stoned. (example, ive been on here a few times sober) :)
My pot smoking has gone up a bit lately, but Im trying to quit cigs, and it definately helps w/ stress, in another week and a half when im done quitting cigs, ill drop the pot smoking back down to after work only :)
And its not like saying morphine is an opiate, because morphine isnt the only opiate.
Pot and hash are the only cannibinoids, and hash "is" pot, just concentrated.

Shaolin--my point is that THC is, by definition a cannabinoid--it's the bench mark. Kinda like, in order to be an opiate, you have to have the opiate bridge. It's a 3-D backbone on an otherwise primarily two-D ring structure. The bridge defines opiates, and all of them, from Morphine to heroin, to fentanyl, have that structural similarity. Cannabinoids are substances with structural similarities, like trypamines and amphetamine analogues. It's a class of chemicals.

Hash and Pot aren't cannabinoids. Individual chemicals in hash and pot are cannabinoids.

The CB 1 receptors are triggered by AG 2 in the GE tract. AG 2 forms during breakdown of triglycerides, but I don't necessarily know what bearing that has on protein absorption, or if it's even related.

Do you know which proteins? Specific amino acids or just generally?

I lost a huge ass post on chemical structure and how it relates to all this, so I'm going to bed.

Hopefully, my 5-hydroxytryptamine levels will allow me to do that ;)

In the process of smoking to alleviate symptoms of specific physical ailments, the getting high effect will wane. The person who uses this method will likely develop a habit.

From the psychological aspect, cannabis is considered and documented as -psychologically habit forming-.

I don't mean to make a blanket statement about people who smoke consistently. And I have to admit to facetiousness in making the remark about escapists being losers.

Reason why I'm saying that is because I think life comes in waves and phases and through discipline we attempt to bing a sense of balance amongst that which we can effect and that which we can't.

There are so many variables in the span of a lifetime where someone will behave in a particular pattern that they themselves have invented and implemented based upon individual experience and even upon those factors that effect our lives that we are not highly cognitive of. (cause and effect / country we live in / parents / etc, etc, etc).

A person @17 is not the same person @35 and so on. Many of us will change our view and in some cases completely reverse our stance on subjects as we pass through time it seems.(spa :) ) The things we do with consistency are the things we do with the most comfort in the end.

Barring insanity.

cheers

"Hash and Pot aren't cannabinoids."
yes, I know this.
good hashish is 50% cannibinoids or so, good bubbly hash having about 75%.
The best pot only has about 25.4% cannibinoids.

Im not sure exactly which protiens, whatnot to be honest. Im kinda out of it today.

No doubt about it.
If you know bout the meat bussiness, every once in a while they come up with some non existant disease somewhere as a method of taking over the pieces of the market and stuff.
Its like they (europe, usa, canada) do towards brazil saying our stuff got "aftosa" (dunno how its called in english) though they got nothing, pure cheat marketing trick, that does unfortunatelly have effect.
All cos they know Brazil has a very huge hugefied capacity to produce lotsa meat, we could technicly very well dominate the chicken bussiness worldwide for example. But of course there are the exporting blocks imposed by some other countries :rolleyes:
Free market, yeah right, but never fair market.

If you don't like the market you could give back all the assitance funds that the U.S. gives to Brazil every year. Ya know the funds which allow you gents to even function.

telling you the market how it is, fool

"assistance funds" LOL :D
could you be any more naive
when its obvious that its an investment,
your country wouldnt put money where
it isnt sure it will/would make profit from in the future
again, fool

not even gonna mention that, you need to keep the market with other countries alive, just becouse otherwise you break too

I wonder if it could not have anything to do at all with your massive poverty levels and countries lack of economic maturity.

btw-nice polluted waters I hear you got down their.

P.S. You know your countries in the modern era when you have native tribes that use gangrape as a form of punishment. The only thing brazil is good for is rap videos.

That is what you are. You are the same lame-brain who screams out KILLERS when in reference to military soliders. That is all I needed to ever know about you. You are devoid of all good points and have yet to have shown one here.

You seem to get a boner by posting in big bold type which might answer why you can not read anything written in normal type.

You say investment I say bs. It's called a handout buddy. You and your mommy suck on America's teat.
