Ecstasy is very dangerous. It’s not just the knock off brand that’s killing people.Dennis Watsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06736981069304416233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6576246045591350665.post-60989902484193012802012-06-14T08:25:26.493-07:002012-06-14T08:25:26.493-07:00Here's something new for BC, and interesting;
...Here's something new for BC, and interesting;<br /><br />"Pure ecstasy can be ‘safe’ for adults; should be regulated: B.C. health officer."<br /><br /><br /><br />VANCOUVER—B.C.’s top health official says taking pure ecstasy can be “safe” when consumed responsibly by adults, despite warnings by police in Alberta and British Columbia about the dangers of the street drug after a rash of deaths."<br /><br />"Dr. Perry Kendall asserts the risks of MDMA — the pure substance originally synonymous with ecstasy — are overblown, and that its lethal dangers only arise when the man-made chemical is polluted by money-hungry gangs who cook it up."<br /><br />"That’s why the chief provincial health officer is advocating MDMA be legalized and sold through licensed, government-run stores where the product is strictly regulated from assembly line to check-out."<br /><br />http://tinyurl.com/bwq4yzz (TorStar)<br /><br />That won't be liked by the VPD, who, I'll bet, will respond today very negatively, in the press.freddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00874780016491360565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6576246045591350665.post-18879700653346361162012-06-12T17:25:58.675-07:002012-06-12T17:25:58.675-07:00I'm not a fan of the outrageously long prison ...I'm not a fan of the outrageously long prison sentences that they have in the States but 2 years of house arrest for 17 kilos of cocaine is totally messed up. Yes this does form case law and will be used as jurisprudence for future cases. The crown has to appeal it. Peter Leask gave CJ Spoon house arrest for selling cocaine for the Hells Angels. That was outrageous on it's own and I doubt he was caught with that much cocaine. This case shows something ism wrong. Under Harpers new law, someone will get more actual time inn prison for growing pot plants. Selling cocaine is much worse.Dennis Watsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06736981069304416233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6576246045591350665.post-87181801168954857362012-06-12T10:28:16.428-07:002012-06-12T10:28:16.428-07:00Agent K, those "long sentences" don'...Agent K, those "long sentences" don't seem to be evenly applied, this is an Outrage!<br /><br />"Appeal court upholds house arrest for man found with 17 kilos of cocaine."<br /><br />"Normally, a person caught selling 17 kilograms of cocaine would be sent to prison for up to 12 years."<br /><br />"But a young man, Nathanael Lucas Nesbitt, was busted with that amount in Kelowna and was sentenced to less than two years of house arrest."<br /><br />"The "wholesale" value of the drugs was estimated at $540,000, or $1.4 million if sold by the gram on the street. The Crown appealed, arguing the sentence was "unfit." "<br /><br />http://tinyurl.com/7nqc7v4 (V.
