Yeah but you can drink alcohol within control. With weed, either you're high or you aren't.
I didn't think you were that stupid. I mean
wow. Unbelievable. Our education system is just falling flat on its face. If you really need me to explain why this quote is just that ignorant, just ask.
Those documentaries were pro-weed biased, though. Weed was probably made illegal because it causes people to act outside the norm.
No, that's not why it was made illegal, at all.
http://www.drugwarrant.com/articles/why-is-marijuana-illegal/However, one of the first state laws outlawing marijuana may have been influenced, not just by Mexicans using the drug, but, oddly enough, because of Mormons using it. Mormons who traveled to Mexico in 1910 came back to Salt Lake City with marijuana. The church’s reaction to this may have contributed to the state’s marijuana law. (Note: the source for this speculation is from articles by Charles Whitebread, Professor of Law at USC Law School in a paper for the Virginia Law Review, and a speech to the California Judges Association (sourced below). Mormon blogger Ardis Parshall disputes this.)
Other states quickly followed suit with marijuana prohibition laws, including Wyoming (1915), Texas (1919), Iowa (1923), Nevada (1923), Oregon (1923), Washington (1923), Arkansas (1923), and Nebraska (1927). These laws tended to be specifically targeted against the Mexican-American population.
Again, racism was part of the charge against marijuana, as newspapers in 1934 editorialized: “Marihuana influences Broes to look at white people in the eye, step on white men’s shadows and look at a white woman twice.”
Yes, it was made illegal based on
racism, bigotry, and nationalism.BACK ON TOPIC.
Anyone know a good method of making lightbulb vaporizers? All the guides I look up differ substantially, or are too hard to follow.
Lightbulb vaps are actually quite dangerous, it's a better idea to just get a glass bowl.
