Activism

Drug Czar Gil Kerlikowske has a new article on The Huffington Post where he once again attempts to fulfill his statutory duty to scare the bejeezus out of Americans who might be considering the legalization of marijuana in three states and the medicalization of marijuana in a dozen others. This time he cites stats from something called ADAM, warning that over half of arrestees in ten surveyed metro areas tested positive for drugs! You need to be afraid, very afraid, of the crime-seeking drug junkies!

This week on The Mernahuana Show we send off foreign exchange HashMob member Hiro with a grand slam of a bong hitting gauntlet. He's a solid Vapor Central regular who participated in his first ever 4/20. Will he bring cannabis culture back to Japan? Yes he will! World domination one foreign exchange student at a time. We talk about the upcoming VC Cannabis Olympics. Is there one?

Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin (R) Wednesday signed into law a bill, House Bill 2388, that requires welfare applicants to be screened for possible drug use and drug tested upon suspicion they are using. They would be denied benefits if they test positive. The screening requirement is designed to surmount constitutional objections to mandatory, suspicionless drug testing of public benefits applicants and recipients.
