it's tough to argue pot should be 100% illegal.

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Here's how to test cannabis safely. Slowly, step by step. :-) The bong can naturally be substituted by a joint.

Feds made an example out of Tommy.
Vlad's video post of C&C brought on some nostalgia.
Funny how Tommy was cell mates with Jordan Belfort and convinced him to write The Wolf of Wall Street in federal prison.

Ketamine, LSD, Mushrooms etc. DMT is a bit different, that gives you proper hallucinations.

I always wondered why people in Cambodia take drugs. Reality is a freaky trip in itself.
Jesus loves you...Mexico is great, right? ;)

This thread started out with the silly trap that prohibitionists want to frame this debate in: If it's harmful it should be illegal, and if it's not then we can talk about legalizing it.

Whole thing is a strawman. We don't make things illegal simply because they can be dangerous, that's not how laws work, anywhere. If it was then there is a massive list of mundane activities that would be outlawed before weed would ever get a mention. More people in the UK die every year from horse riding accidents than they do from using ecstasy. That doesn't mean we say horse riding should be illegal, and it's rare (though not unheard of) for that statistic to be used as an argument for legalizing hard drugs.

The whole "debate" is a goddamn farce, and people are falling for it on both sides.

Get your point. See the thread about dangerous animals - dogs and cows should be illegal.

Politics have nothing to do with logic.
Making laws on what the electorate want to hear is more important than facts or figures, in every country.
