There are many people coming from the mountain area of Kashmir that every day reach Mumbai with cannabis cultivated in their backyard. The big city represents a fast way to get money out of it. Even the police is aware of it, as an officer says that they have filed three to four cases against Kashmiris this year. 6 months ago, a man has been catched with 21 kg of hashish. Some other man, a repeated offender risks even the death sentence. According to the official UN records, cannabis herb seizures made in Asia account for 5 % of the world total. And in the meantime, Mumbai gets high.

A refreshing recepee found somewhere on internet: pass into the grinder a little amount of cannabis. If you want, at this stage, you can even put the cannabis into your vaporizer, but take care to use it at the lower temperature. Prepare the tulsi in the same way. Now you can mix the two herbs and boil them together in almond milk. Done!

It seems that Marc Emery, Vancouver’s  Prince of Pot, has  agreed to a five-year prison term in a plea bargain over U.S.  marijuana seed-selling charges and money laundering. Emery has faced the prospective of a long (life) enprisonement, and now it seems that he close a deal  with with US authorities to spend 5 years in a Canadian jail. Many Canadian have seen this decision as a matter of indipendence for Canada as country. Emery haven’t even been in USA, and Canadian laws aren’t so strict about cannabis seeds.Before being arrested under request of the USA, Emery was just once fine 2.000$. His tax declaration stated “marijuana seeds vendor”. We have read a beautiful reflection about this case, written by a canadian, have a read here

Jacqui Smith, Home Secretary of the government of Gordon Brown, has announced that she wants to reserve the the choice of his predecessor to downgrade the prducts derived from Cannabis from class C back to class B. In this way every offender risk up to 14 years of jail. Ms Smith said: “Though statistics show that cannabis use has fallen significantly, there is a real public concern about the potential mental health effects of cannabis use.” Question: what are the scientific evidence of these potential mental health effects? Which data about consumers, increment or decrement of the use etc have been used and why aren’t they released to the public? You know the answer. And if you live in UK,you know what to do.

Unlucky day for a student, probably a minor: the militaries of the italian Guardia di Finanza of Milan have catched the guy during a control using  a dog. The animal went crazy once arrived close to the guy. The police then found 40 gr of hashish hidden in his underwear. Later, at home, they have found other 170 gr. and 1000 euro cash. Periodical check with the use of dogs are becoming more and more popular in Italy. And just yesterday the Corte di Cassazione, the italian higher court, have changed his opinion, deciding that growing one plant on the balcony is a crime. During the last half year instead, the same supreme court stated that a few plant are equivalent to personal user (so not punishable).

The war on drug is a term that define an artificial phoenomena created in USA 70 years ago. It has been a failure ever since and it didn’t help one single person on the planet to fight his problem with a substance. The war in Iraq in an artificial  phoenomena too. It has been created in 2003 in violation of the UN conventions, for the only reasonto support the gluttony of the friends of a  president of the country that invaded Iraq. 1937, 2003, 2008 what is changed? Nothing. There is a man that is the only one between all the american candidates that is proposing to leave Iraq instantly, to end the war on drugs instantly, to close the CIA instantly. And what Americans do? Support all the other candidates except him. Like that Barak Obama,that admitted to use weed and coke when he was younger, but that wanna drug users still in jail. Like over 1 million person in this very moment, injail for being drug users. Mostly with black skin, like him. What a squalor!
