This Blog will discuss politics, government, corruption, police, S.I.U., courts, education, min. of attorney general, min. of labour, v.o.i.c.e. and other current and past events of interest to concerned citizens. In the "About me" section to the right and down I have included the names of persons whom I have tremendous respect for. Their influence on me however has been primarily environmental (and personal) and this is therefore a disclaimer that all words posted on this Blog/Website are mine and I alone am responsible for them. I say this with the greatest respect and affection to my friends.

PASS THE JOINT



The hypocrisy ! Our legal system if not founded upon marijuana certainly has been maintained by it. How many billions of taxpayers dollars have been funnelled towards the Judicial System in their neverending, never sucessful battle against hemp? The devil's weed has indirectly financed Judges, lawyers, prosecuters, police and so many more for decades. If the Liberals were to eventually legalize marijuana what could take it's place? How can you justify a ravenous, always voracious Judicial System after you remove it's foundation? Sure you can always jail bankrobbers, stickup artists and shoplifters but seriously there just aren't enough of them. Maybe we can go back to prohibition. Ban alcohol. It's been done before and it worked (sort of).

Today's K-W Record has the following story: "Liberals want to make pot legal". As Bob Rae, interim leader of the Liberals stated, " Let's face up to it, Canada- the war on drugs has been a complete bust". More significantly for me Rae stated Canada should avoid " sending another generation of young people into prison". As expected the Conservatives in Ottawa took offense and said that the Liberals were "soft on crime". This is more evidence that the Conservatives proposed expansion of the prison system has less to do with real crime and criminals and more to do with ideology and jacking up the "crime" statistics. I think that we can count on two things now. One the Conservatives will be spending more taxpayers money touting the evils of marijuana and two the entire Court, Judicial System and Police will be voting Conservative from here on. It's all about preserving privelege, income and entitlement on the backs of ordinary Canadians: even if you have to make criminals of them. Not to worry though, I'm sure the Conservatives will again expand the Pardon system to remove the stigma of being a criminal. Afterall they don't want to offend their American friends by restricting Canadian tourists from crossing the border and spending money stateside.
