Lebanon Legalises Hash Growers Unhappy

[Teddybrae]

A recent video report from ABC (Australia) shot in the Bekka Valley beside a Cannabis crop ...


told of the Farmers anger that the Government would tax "... their" (the farmers) Hashish! "It's OUR Hashish!" the farmer said.


He is like (EDIT:many growers here) in the wonderful Land of Oz who don't welcome Legality.

wow! i know it's not the intent of the thread to celebrate
but 1 more brick out of the wall, on balance a good thing

They had a good thing when it was illegal.

what did they have?
my understanding if you're in the biz there, certain power groups get a piece of the action
you can call it protection, or a tax

Sounds good though the farmers may disagree. California fell and like dominoes the rest are falling across the world. No one likes to admit cali often leads the way. Me either when it comes to stupid laws of which we have a bunch.

You had warlord types running the hash biz, not hippies. Would be nice to have some more laid back types involved there.

I bet the cops are pissed too.

He is like most growers here in the wonderful Land of Oz where legalising is not welcome!

Well... The sentiment is totally understandable...


Dumb fucks getting in the middle of our (pot heads) business, with no other interest other than to tax, need to step the fuck aside and mind their own god damn business!


Seems this is the direction American legalization is going because a bunch of dumb fucks think it "good enough" for them.


REGULATION IS PROHIBITION!

It beats the military plowing it all under.

But nobody's ever always happy.

Viva hasheesha!

Hezbollah, AKA Civilian Defense Organization.

"The group is considered a terrorist organization by the United States, Israel, Canada, the Arab League,[35] the Gulf Cooperation Council,[36][37] along with its military wing by the United Kingdom, Australia and the European Union"

When the Terrorists think you're a Terrorist, that's usually a good sign.
