What a fine mess, brought to you with your hard earned tax dollars.
Dysfunctional and disgraceful.

i donā€™t see the issue with this at all, the cannabis was never out on display and was only handed over to an adult with valid ID. maybe it should have been more clearly marked ADULTS ONLY but i see liquor / liquor gift card packages at almost every silent auction i go to. perhaps the dad should have been more involved in what his son was bidding on. i have a feeling the boomer wouldnā€™t have been complaining about a wine gift basket

I thought it was an interesting article. If kids want to smoke pot their gonna find a way. Sounds like the little guy knew what he was bidding on.
I remember finding some weed plants while camping with some buddies. We didnā€™t smoke pot, but we knew the value it had. We picked it and I gave it to my dad. Few months laterā€¦he asked me if I ever wanted to try potā€¦ the pot we picked was dry. He rolled a big fat joint and I smoked it (very harsh and unmature). Then he wipped out some skunk bud and said this might be a little smoother) 45 mins later Iā€™m scarfing down turkey sandwichesā€¦

Well it remains to be seen if the Overlords of NY and NJ will allow any growing of plants whatsoever by their tax-payers.

So sad.

Oklahoma, of all states, seems to have far more respect for itā€™s taxpayers than many supposedly more enlightened states have shown their citizens.

Nice to see for a change.

Weed was being considered as a good plant to assist in the remediation of certain toxic sites. :dizzy_face:

Although not a current event, I thought this was quite interesting.

Look at all of us a few centuries later.
