If you wish to find out more about the "Governments" role in the drug
culture you could research the movies "Reefer Madness" and "Hemp for
Victory." Who knows why it is legal in Holland and not in the USA.
Holland had Religious freedom two hundred years before there was a
Constitution. Maybe we are jut behind on the times. If you do something
under controlled conditions rather than "on the street" perhaps Holland's
logic is better. No need to make primative TABOO's. The government treats
us all like foo's. What poetry, what rhymes. Auto's kill people all of
the time.......I'm a poet and never know it..... There's a fungus among
us.....I am a student at the University of South Florida. I wish you well
on your endeavors.
Please no sob stories around midterms.
