Should I be jailed for breaking the law?

so government policy is dicataed by peoples irrational fear rather than scientific fact

 

errr! no, I don't think that's what I said. Peoples fears are dictated by lack of understanding was the implication, Government policies are dictated by Rhesus Monkey's I believe, something like that...

In the case of drugs legislation that's pretty close to being true actually.

It's only illegal because the drugs industry and government want to demonised it before selling it as an expensive miracle cure for cancer under some daft name.

 

They have to pretend they are still testing it though despite knowing for years it could replace many pharmaceuticals with better results and almost zero harmful side effects.

Also very cheap and easy to produce.

I know a lot of these sites are full of one sided propoganda but a lot of what's been spoken of on this thread is written here.

Who was it that was arguing that the law couldn't be immoral or wrong?

Like the people who would say admit speeding. Do you think the forum should give our IP addresses to the law?

 

Thats not up to the forum really. They only need to serve a RIPA request to the forum owner and refusal to supply it is then counted as obstruction. Considering this is a public forum that can be read by anyone, if they wanted to they could find chem1st anyway. Im guessing they haven't!
