U.S. warns Canada against easing pot laws

Quote

David Murray, right-wing-hand job man to U.S. "drug czar" John Walters, says he doesn't want to tread on another country's sovereignty, [size=8]but[/size] warned there would be serious consequences if Canada proceeds with a plan to decriminalize the possession of marijuana.

I think those "consequences" threatened were of the economic/trade disfavor type rather than of a military nature, don't you?

he is powerless in the united states other than attempting to wipe his bellybutton with the constitution. illeagle drugs are the only thing i know of getting cheaper. guess hes throwing attention at somone where it is truely utterly pointless to keep the money flowing to the "drug troopers" (as they have a hard time making it on bribes now). like the canadians care what he thinks.

Ah, so now it's unconstitutional to make drugs illegal.

"He said if marijuana becomes more widely used in Canada, it could penetrate more widely into the U.S."

Oh, dear Jebus, NO! The Reefer Madness is gonna get us! WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!

SOB

Canadian pot sucks...

They can keep it.

(Of course this is all based on long past memory)

I can see it now, pot's finally legalized in the US. 5 years later, Joe Blow and all his brothers and sisters will be suing the government for not protecting them from the known health hazards. Much like idiots sue the tobacco companies now.

marijuana is just about the most stupid thing for our government to be spending time on.
