Legal at last, legal at last!

The Federal Government is headquartered in Washington, D.C. The Federal Government has oodles of laws that slap you in jail for growing and/or using marijuana. Recently, a man bought marijuana in Washington, D.C. Legally.

Where were DEA agents and DHS agents? What is illegal is illegal, isn’t it?

Not in D.C. The U.S. Congress four years ago decided the D.C. City Council could determine whether to allow prescription marijuana sales. The feds might hammer your head for having dope in Montana, but not in D.C.

The buyer bought slightly less than half an ounce for around $250. Sixteen times $250 … (Find calculator.) … $4,000 a pound. I am in the wrong business. Except, I am not in any business at all. I am retired.

Anyway, I can’t sell medical marijuana or any other kind of marijuana in Arkansas. Not legally. Nor would I, except maybe if everything fell apart and government went away (not bloody likely) and it was every man and woman for himself and herself and people were willing to trade food for marijuana, but then people who raised food and who wanted marijuana could also raise their own, so there goes that idea.

From The Washington Post:

“Shortly before 6 p.m., Alonzo walked into the high-security sales room of the Capital City Care dispensary with two store employees to consummate the city’s first legal marijuana deal in at least 75 years. He purchased about $250 worth of three strains of cannabis.

“’It’s a beautiful natural product that is from rain, sun and soil,’ Alonzo said, wearing a dark T-shirt with a green logo of a cannabis leaf over a medical cross. ‘Mother Nature doesn’t make mistakes.’”

(I wouldn’t buy a used car from someone whose ideas on reproduction and growth and such were so very wrong. Mother Nature does make mistakes, or at least Stuff Happens and sometimes that Stuff is not pleasant. Like HIV. Diseases are not Mother Nature’s mistakes, are they? Whatever, the dude who bought dope is HIV-positive, and HIV people were big backers of prescription marijuana.

(So, if you want legal marijuana in your state, get the HIV people and needle drug users and homosexuals to carry signs outside the State House. But ... You might not get HIV people and homosexuals, because that would maybe point at a link between the two, and everybody knows there is no link, because everybody is suscptible to developing AIDS. Even you monogamous heterosexuals. Right?)
