The USA is not done with vindictive head-hunting of people that sell cannabis seeds! Update on Gyspy Nirvana:

We should start or sign a petition against this! Anybody know of one?

I do not know how accurate this is.
I found it amusing, nonetheless!

As the vindictive, malicious persecution of Gypsy Nirvana continues, these stupid propaganda reels reflect upon just how little the anti cannabis delusion has changed.
Wowee!

More on Gypsy - the extradition case seems open-and-shut, it’s legal in England, my guess is prosecutors are just appealing in order to drag it out & harrass him at the behest of the USA.

If anyone finds anyway to support blocking the exportation please post it somewhere.

nice! Now let’s see the UK help him to get his family back where they belong. Since he is a totally law-abiding English citizen they better get cracking!

As an American this is extremely embarrassing and humiliating. My government is not expressing the thoughts and will of the general public in my opinion. :weary:

This story struck me as a little odd.
Hmmm?

Sort of interesting, in any event.

I was afraid to read this and pleasantly surprised it was a positive slant on edibles. :grin:

Edit: Spoiler alert!!!

Hi @ryasco Yes, it is quite a nice endorsement of edibles. It also made me hungry.

What I found a little strange was the writer mentioning that THC felt like alcohol.
To me, wine and THC are quite a bit different in their effects…zero similarity.

Here:
“Soon, I felt the subtle effects of the THC-infused drink. I was a bit buzzed, similar to how I feel after a good glass of wine.”

If i sit and casually smoke 3 or 4 joints of Cindy it can get a bit trippy and my balance goes to sh!t. I would say more similar to a good clean silver tequila like Patron. Wine puts me to sleep like an IPA.

Salutations Calyxander,

Indeed. Cannabis consumers should be entitled to have a distinct sub-culture, THC comes with an “entourage” that is no poison, literally. It’s like trying to justify alcohol by making cannabis the same… I call that “Cultural Genocide”, the considerations and language are specific. It’s shortcuts as that which cause health ministers to claim “we” need to limit THC % while in fact this would only increase exposure to potential contaminants from vegetal tissue, because it takes more bowls then to accomplish a same goal. Which i find most reprehensible for “elite” politicians with public resources at their disposal and who can’t pretend they never hear of CBD - certainly not after the recent UN anouncement!

Good day, have fun!! :peace:

Salutations Ryasco,

Exactly, but within a multi-ratios spectrum which the bigot anti-cannabic prohibitionists won’t brag too much about, as far as i’m concerned:

My reason is simple. The “application range” located along the quarter-arc curve linking a vast sample of average viable genetics (as illustrated above) goes from THC-centric (X) to CBD-centric (Y) if we rotate counter-clockwise, euh… These recent years we heard a lot about CBD oils and 1:1 “High-CBD” varieties besides the traditional THC-centric ones, but i suspect there’s some overlooked benefits in 2:1 or 3:1 THC:CBD groups as well… In other words i feel the extremes should be reserved for breeding and/or medical purposes perhaps, because i’m not sure what most people would choose in the end once given a full palette of options. If we agree that THC-centric cannabis affects, say, ~2 % of the consumers negatively then i may want to point out that it’s still sufficient for a sensationalist mass-media press to focus on habit disorders falling into the medical category anyway, misrepresenting the remaining 98 %…

M’well, that’s only me. But the thing is i don’t hear anything like this on late night TV news ever. How come? Are powerful “expert$”/“spe¢iali$ts” just blind, or conveniently (self-serving) selective in setting the agenda??

Which to me is a matter of self-vilification serving the enemy camp…

Then this:

:expressionless:

Good day, have fun!! :peace:
