How come the U.S. government didn’t allow Saddam Hussein to keep or use his weapons of mass destruction, but they allowed Adam Lanza to keep and use his?

What have you been seizing?

Late last month, Peter Dunne announced a Temporary Class Drug Notice banning the synthetic cannabinoid EAM-2201. The ban came into effect yesterday.
Dunne bans substance found in K2 testing
Associate Health Minister Peter Dunne today announced a Temporary Class Drug Notice banning a substance found in tested samples of the K2 synthetic cannabis product.
K2 has recently caused concern in communities, particularly in the lower South Island, where it has been connected to a number of incidents, and its use has been tied to elevated heart rate, vomiting, anxiety and psychosis.
A substance identified as EAM-2201 was found in two K2 products seized by police from a retail outlet, and will now be subject to a temporary drug notice taking effect from Thursday, December 6.
Wait a moment. The police seized products from a retail outlet. WTF? Couldn’t they just buy the products like anyone else? Last time I checked, a 2g pack of K2 cost $30 at Cosmic Corner or $20 + p&p online here. I suppose, being an entrenched Parliamentary trougher and now the Minister of Revenue, Peter Dunne knows no other way than to seize stuff that doesn’t belong to him. But was the police action actually legal? I see nothing in the Misuse of Drugs Amendment Act (No 2) 2011, the legislation enabling the issuance of Temporary Class Drug Notices, that authorises the seizure of legal products from retail outlets. Quite simply, the police committed theft.
From that date, it will be illegal to import, manufacture, sell or supply the substance.
“The Health Ministry considers that EAM-2201 poses a risk at least comparable to other already banned synthetic cannabis substances, therefore I have made the decision that it needs to be banned.
Once upon a time New Zealand had something that vaguely resembled an evidence-based drug policy. The government had to have more than just anecdotal evidence of harm (i.e., something vaguely resembling a scientific study) before it could ban a substance. Now, Dunne the Dictator just bans as sees fit. As someone once said, gotta love Peter Dunne, “legal highs are bad, except the one that causes violence, destroys your nervous system, liver, heart, gives you cancer, and turns you into an uncouth prick yelling at rugby, I like that one, as it gives me money.”
“This is clearly not a product we want in the market place, and the fact that it is on the market tells you that we have an industry that does not give a damn about the safety of its customers.
What’s with the ‘we’, Peter Dunne? And wasn’t it the self-same industry who actually suggested that you ban the potentially carcinogenic (on account of its naphthalene group) NNE1? You’re the one who doesn’t give a damn about the safety of drug users (or the welfare of animals) or you’d be pushing to legalise cannabis.
“Any product containing EAM-2201 must be off the market under this order, which will stay in force for 12 months.”
Mr Dunne said a permanent psychoactive substances regime will be in place by the middle of next year, reversing the onus of proof so manufacturers and distributors will have to prove their products are safe before they can sell them.“
Onus of proof reversed. Guilty until proven innocent. Oops.
“Products that pass testing will still have age and other restrictions applied.
“The regime will fix this industry once and for all and make it comply with proper standards. K2 is just another example of why you cannot trust these people to self-regulate and conduct themselves responsibly,” Mr Dunne said.
K2 is just another example of what happens under Prohibition. (Far be it from me, however, to liken “these people” to Al Capone.)
“Temporary Class Drug Notices were always a holding pen until we could bring in permanent legislation, and they have done the job well. With this latest ban, we have now removed 32 substances, and therefore effectively more than 50 products, from the market,” he said.
Yeah right. A range of synthetic cannabinoid products is still on the market. Oh, and so is cannabis. (Speaking of cannabis, perhaps the real reason the police stole the K2 products is that they were flat broke after wasting millions of dollars on the failed Operation Lime.)
What have you been smoking?

A Message from Jodie Emery…
From her facebook feed…
“Congratulations to *everyone* who worked on all of the marijuana campaigns in the United States! Enormous thanks to, and praise for, YES on WA’s Marijuana Initiative 502 and Vote “Yes” on Amendment 64, Legalize Marijuana – YOU DID IT! The whole world is watching, it’s big, big news! Much more hard work and perseverance is needed in the USA, Canada, and internationally to keep the momentum going!”
For those of you who dont yet know it, the US States of Colorado and Washington have just legalised Recreational use of Cannabis!
For those of you who dont know who Jodie is… Shes the Legendary Flipside of the Legendary Cannabis Reform activist and Political Prisoner… Canadian Marc Emery, who is currently serving time in the US for his activism to legalise Cannabis.
Marc had a Postal seed business which he used to generate millions of dollars which he poured into the struggle to legalise Pot.
This made him Emery Number 1 with the American drug enforcement agencies.. you see few people whom capitalise from cannabis actaully want to decriminalise it and even fewer use their revenue for the cause!
What a Woman!
Not only has she’s stood by her husband through His ordeal, she has taken on his Mantle and is a Mighty Warrior… an Amazon for the cause!
Man that’s some good shit!:-)
That Marc has been separated from his Hot Babe is an Injustice upon Injustice!
Why do so many of you people out there whom enjoy Cannabis, and are persecuted for it… do nothing to in your own defence?
That’s Lame!
It is time to stand up Bitches!

Talk about an absolutely suspect voting system (USA). Who trusts electronic voting? Not I!
It was easy for the Republicans to Rob Ron Paul using that system and now who can have any confidence in this Obama result?
Yet still Romney is in no position to complain as this would raise the issue of his own rigging to become the Republican candidate!
Today One Shyster has defeated Another.
Though The American Presidency it touted as ‘the most important Job in the world’
Ironically it matters little if this Presedntal elections were rigged as many of us Libertraians dont believe it would have made much difference who won… there being so little to differentiate the candidates… The Powers that be had hedged their bets.
Thus Rigged or not… “The government you elect is government you deserve.” Thomas Jefferson.
It was the shafting of Ron Paul by his own party which was a blow against real change… and a real chioce.
After Ron Paul was removed… the retention of the status quo was assured.

And The Dirty tactics and Delusional Facade of a real choice is today the norm for democracies around the Globe.
Here In New Zealand the Two Party political Duopoly of National and Labour likewise renders voting vurtually moot.
It is scary to realise that because Obama will not be standing for a third term he can do whatever he purposes with less regard of how Americans feel about it….making him more dangerous… more heavy handed.
I fear the Global crisis will smite Western civilisation.
This Socialist charade cannot go on indefinitely
There will be great civil unrest in America and around the globe… and Tyranny will rise and Civil liberties will be crushed… this seems hard to believe yet all the auguries forbode this evil is nigh. Massive unemployment and economic shrinkage… collapsing governments…. Ill conceived leftist uprisings decrying austerity…demanding handouts…. protectionism… And yet the Dumbfounded Dipshits … the sheepish herds… will have forgotten they voted for the Despots.
Ultimately it is still the Gullible masses whom are the most culpable for their own misery because they love to follow the melody of the Piper… they tollerate the dirty tactics employed by the Demagogues.
They want Tyranny… the Sheeple keep begging for more.
I realise Prophesies of Doom are a mocking.
Making such Cynical and Fringe, blog posts as this will not tend to increase the Credibility of ‘Eternal Vigilance’, yet let those whom have not hardened their hearts, seared their consciences, or shut their minds consider this…
Remember what Lord Action said!
When you consider the vested interests involved, and the Power of the Whitehouse it really would be far more extreme to expect the democratic process to be corruption free… Yes?
The gospel of democracy is false… It cannot Redeem Fallen humanity nor substitute his loss of God.
Return Lord Jesus!
And futhermore…
The only people whom will be least effected by a Global Economic collapse will be the Third world Subsistence peoples and Amish types, and Preppers… ie the Self reliant peoples whom are not dependent upon the system of Mammon.
Prepare yourselves folks… Better to build an Ark yet the flood never come, than to mock and carry on ‘Marrying and giving in Marriage’… Nek Minit…being swept away…
The Moral victory goes to Ron Paul, Gary Johnson, and those Americans whom voted for Libertarian reforms.
it is sad to see that the struggle for freedom is in as dire straights in America as is is here in New`Zealand.
None the less… “With 97% of precincts reporting, Gov. Gary Johnson for President won 1,140,804 votes for the Libertarian ticket, breaking the 32-year record held by Ed Clark, who won 921,128 votes (1.06%) in 1980.”
it just goes to show that those foolish Libertarian voters whom voted ‘strategically’ for Romney… whom they considered ‘the lesser evil’… really did waste their votes! They could have helped Johnson reach the 5% mark he was hoping for.
