When you’re running abroad it can be easy money as long as you are aware of the severity of the actions if you are either caught by the authorities or if you cross the guys you are working for.
The guy took a chance, knew what would happen, and went for it, his own fault, end of.

Don’t know what he was running, but I can’t see why they can’t just legalise weed and concentrate on the harder stuff.which can be more addictive and dangerous.
Cannabis is a natural herb plant, which carrys many properties for healing, if you want to smoke it, cake it or… shove it up your arse, :unamused: , why should any authority be bothered, it works fine in Holland, so why not here.

“Natural Herb Plant”…sounds healthy, doesn`t it?
Or at the least pretty OK. Especially if a soft and cuddly hippy like DD is saying it. :smiley:
Other “Natural Plants” include: Deadly Nightshade, Hemlock, Monkshood, Death Cap, Destroying Angel.
Yew provided Tamoxifen for cancer treatments, but can also kill. Same with Foxgloves, they can be used to provide life saving Digitalis drugs, or cause heart attacks.
.

Ok I get your point not everything that grows naturally is good for you or harmless, …then again I did not say it was, did I? :neutral_face:
So unless you want me to make a list of all the things that grow naturally , from potatoes to peaches, that are good for you, you will have to explain the relavance of your point.

What I was trying to say is why concentrate on the use of a relatively mild ‘drug’ rather than on stuff like crack cocaine, or Heroin . (There you go,.another natural plant product for your ‘ain’t gonna do you any good’ list :smiley: )

You, I think, object rightly to biased terms in news reports?
Huge lorries, juggernauts, diesel drinking, polluting, etc? Without saying trucks are more fuel efficient than cars or vans, are safer than cars and are necessary for life as we know it, that is bias.
Saying cannabis can have healing properties, without saying it can be damaging, is bias.

“Relatively mild”, Comparing cannabis and heroin?
Comparing being knocked over by a bike rather than by a truck? One is worse for sure, but both best avoided, surely?

So, no, you didn`t actually say that cannabis was harmless, but you were, IMHO, biased in your language.
