Pot 2.0: Where Can I Get It?

Okay, so I just found this site called "Cannazine" all about cannabis and such, and it is chock full of wonderful pot news a commentary. Since it is hard to tell how current any of their articles are (no pub date?), I'll point you to their top story and a topic we cover here periodically, the popular myth that pot is way stronger today than it was in days gone by.

Heard the latest from the Feds regarding their multi-billion dollar war on weed? According to the latest warnings from law enforcement, today’s cannabis is nearly twice as strong as the pot available in the 1970s and 80s. Sounds like its time for the Drug Enforcement Administration to don some new duds. How about t-shirts saying: "I’ve arrested millions, and all I got was stronger pot?"

I think that is funny. Hee hee. Check them out for all your pot news.

The people who think that the weed nowadays is twice as strong as in the 70's obviously didn't smoke good weed then! The stuff that my friends and I smoked then would fit right up there with anything comparable today. The bottom line is that most of the strains now are great and shwag is few and far between. Just my $0.02......

If anything, stronger weed is beneficial. Less plant matter needs to be smoked.

"weed is much stronger today than it was in the 70s and the 80s"

Who exactly is their target audience there anyway? Is anyone that smoked pot in those two decades really going to now believe exactly the same muppets that came up with "marijuana the assassin of youth"?

Funny perhaps, but the point -- that the stronger pot of today that is used as an argument for increased enforcement is actually a result of enforcement -- is an important one. Not only have the "drug warriors" never addressed it, I think they lack the subtlety of thought to even grok it. Anyone with two neurons even partially connected could see that "strong pot" is an argument against our current strategy, not in favor of it.

The fact that those responsible for our drug policy can't even see this should be contemplated as a tonic if one ever finds oneself accidentally caught in the grip of optimism.
