Peter O’Donnell, agree 100% with your comment. We need to make it clear to PMSH that the majority of people want HRC’s dismantled and that there is no constitutional right to not be offended.
I’m not sure where some of the statist crap in the Conservative crime bill came from. IMO, C68 should be entirely repealed, cannabis should be decriminalized and use of force to defend property should be acceptable.
For those who get upset at the idea of decriminalizing cannabis, medical marijuana is likely going to be the primary defense of anyone caught cultivating weed. Cannabis happens to be an effective analgesic for neuropathic pain. Unlike a lot of conventional pharmaceuticals, it is dirt cheap (gives you an idea of the profit margin of drug companies). Any attempt to crack down on cannabis is going to run smack into the increasing medical use of cannabis. Even in the fairly conservative area where I live I have 75 year old patients starting to smoke weed for arthritis pain.
I am glad to see Bev still at her post and Max back in. Hopefully Gerry Ritz does what needs to be done with the CWB.
Hopefully, also, that there is movement as soon as possible to get rid of the LGR. I just had to register an air rifle.
Peter O’Donnell, I also agree 100% with your comment.
Davenport,
I hope you like the taste of conservative ass … you’ll be enjoying it for a minimum of 5 years … bon appetitte.

Quack, quack..
fiddle, think about the amount of your money that gets spent every year to enforce the weed prohibition.
Now consider you can buy weed in EVERY high school in the country, and its no big deal.
Do you think you are getting your money’s worth?
Me, I would like to see a humongous tax cut instead of more cops going through my luggage at the airport. And by luggage I mean…
Harm reduction on a bigger scale.
Uh Phanton, Davenport’s not spinning he just pointed out that you are as they say wrong.
@Louise et al – We were so poor we could not afford gravel.

I disagree with needle injection to addict
may be in temporary run to help them but it can not save life
in long term their life will get shorter
and act more crazy harm public and may themselve
best solution to cut alchole and drug and cigar in long run but how read below:
and side affect of those injection will affect to not only to them but also to their family and public safty
if that is case we need achole free house to drink addict who are addition to alchole too and wait to see too much drink and drive accident
======
it can be start as short term to find solution
1)
I think solution to put that money to
each group addict has supervisor and has
caregiver to 24/7 help them first THIS CAN BE THIR PARENTS BUT NEED TO GET PAID SOMETIMES TO WATCH ADDICT ALL THE TIME
2)
second they need to see psychritic to do
MRI and F MRI are different than MRI http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_magnetic_resonance_imaging
and GGC test to make sur
see how much their brain get damage
3) give tehm drug tablet is better than give them injection of marijina
and give them tablet for Parkinson
because of most of drug used for pshchyrict made them sleepy and can not drive or do haevy job
and their hand can shake or may have white blood cell get reduced and kill them
4) then watch by family docotr all the time
it may take 3 to 5 years to help them and fix their brain
but need to cut achol from their life too

MRI is used to visualize the brain and any pathology which may be present (size of the ventricles, signs of stroke, aneurysm, brain tumor, pituitary abnormalities etc). But, MRI does not check the function of the brain….how the brain is working. The fMRI can do that.
“fMRI is becoming the diagnostic method of choice for learning how a normal, diseased or injured brain is working, as well as for assessing the potential risks of surgery or other invasive treatments of the brain.
Physicians perform fMRI to:
****examine the anatomy of the brain.
****determine precisely which part of the brain is handling critical functions such as thought, speech, movement and sensation, which is called brain mapping.
****help assess the effects of stroke, trauma or degenerative disease (such as Alzheimer’s) on brain function.
****monitor the growth and function of brain tumors.”
AND:
“In an fMRI examination, you will perform a particular task during the imaging process, causing increased metabolic activity in the area of the brain responsible for the task. This activity, which includes expanding blood vessels, chemical changes and the delivery of extra oxygen, can then be recorded on MRI images.”
The essential difference between MRI and fMRI is the magnetic resonance signal that is measured. MRI examines the hydrogen nuclei of the water molecules in the brain whereas fMRI measures the blood oxygen level.
