SuperTorch

Quote from the article link in this thread. http://www.marijuana.com/legalizatio...alization.html


"It's impossible to eradicate, and I know that because I'm an ex-narcotics officer," Cooper said. "My commander ... said I was one of the best narcotics officers in the nation. I've got over 800 narcotics arrests personally credited, not counting thousands I worked as joint operations. I worked joint operations with DEA, FBI, ATF, US military ... just about every agency you can think of."

So what triggered Cooper's transformation from super cop to pot pitchman? "I was taught by the government that evil people smoke marijuana and evil people trafficked it and grew it," he said. "Of all the arrests I made, I can't think of one marijuana smoker who fought me ... We have 750,000 docile, non-violent people who go to prison for marijuana possession every year."


That is something that should be driven home hard. If you arrest for a living MJ users and they NEVER get violent, it makes a pretty loud statement about the lack of criminality or hardness the drug creates. That quote needs to be driven home nationally.

I only smoke legal herbs, when I come to these forums and discuss things like smoking and the high one gets I'm referring to the feeling I get from legal herbs and have no information on what others are smokeing or reffering to. I don't smoke marijuana but do enjoy discussing and talking about legal herbs and the high from different legal smoking methods and all my post should be viewed in that light.
