If you have not already seen it, see the movie 'Pineapple Express'. It's humor, not serious, and some vignette about marijuana being made illegal in the 30's.momofthegoons said:That was an entertaining read. Thanks rabican.

... Boom Shiva !
.... Its legal in India specifically for sadhu's(holymen) since its dates back many many years back in our religion hinduism and was considered holy/spiritual.
Still very nice read.

Someone please tell me more about the loophole in Belgium.
My friend lives there, and he really could do with something to ease his stress.

11 is not entirely accurate
Male plants can produce just as much THC on the "LEAVES" as female plants
The bulk of psychoactive material is in the female flowers

I am saying 2,200 deaths seems really low if that is a worldwide number. I can probably find facts to dispute your facts if I cared to but I think heroin is an awful drug and nothing is going to change my mind.
I just think it would be more like 10,000.
I also think the prescription drug one is really low too. I would put that one more at like 100k, that is including like old people's meds not just pain killer stuff... but bad prescriptions etc.
Just my opinion.

I'm El Diablo Baby!!!
There are probably quite a few heroin and prescription drug realated deaths that didn't make it on there because the actual cause of death was a little mysterious or confusing.
Don't know for sure though, just guessing.

I'm not trying to change your mind. Of course it is a horrible drug. I'm just trying to show why it may not kill as many people as most would think. Does it have to kill a ton of people to be a bad drug? Did my post come across as cheer leading for heroin? GIMME SOME H!bcleez said:
If that is worldwide, I agree. I just assumed it was the U.S.

That heroin number is only a "little" low. The number exceeds 4k annually, and has rose every year since something like 94'. In fact current number's are showing that deaths from heroin have risen approx 18% over last year. Pretty alarming rate. The biggest reason for the rise in death's isn't so much from an exorbant increase in users as it is a SUBSTATNIAL increase in the potency of the narcotic being brought into the country. Super potent, and at a cheaper price.
With the increase of abuse in the prescription drug market, it is opening the flood gates to those user's becoming more open to dabbling/trying straight heroin. They figure since they can handle Methodone, or Roxy's, they can handle heroin. Also part of the problem with the increased potency, is the number of users are rising....but most are your traditional user. I.E cant be indentified through track marks etc. Because the new "tar" is so potent, most can smoke or snort it and achieve the desired effect. This causes problems when trying to identify heroin related deaths, because the drug itself metabolize so fast in the body, it's damn near impossible for a coroner to pin point cause of death, stemming from the drug.
The talk within the medical communities is that, the new flood of heroin users and deaths is comparable to the crack epidemic that hit in the 70's.

@Lil Dragonfly
Can't really help you on that, i live in France.
What I am sure of, it is that it's not legal, but if the police catch a user they won't take u to jail, they will only fined you and take your stah.
I am sure it s easy to find and cheaper than neetherlands some time.
maybe he should try a university campus if he has no hook up. People are open minded in Belgium.
