THC is the active chemical in weed, nowhere near an opiate.

But nice attempt at thread highjacking, spud.

But the opiates,like THC,often makes the users too content and thus uninterested in industrious pursuits so they tend to become entitlement junkies and thus solid liberal Democrat voters.

There you go: in the nineteenth century, there were no entitlments to speak of - only private charity and, at most, city payments. Anyone ending up "uninterested in industrial pursuits" either had to go to the frontier or would be set straight fairly quickly.

Reasons enough to make drug crimes capital offenses don't you think?

By deporting 'em to Cuba?

I know opiates and THC are not the same—I said opiates,like THC—not opiates such as THC.

My bad,perhaps,for poor composition—your bad for misunderstanding a clear point.

Actually, in a way, I'm glad "Churchill" is not witnessing the goings-on in the Oval Office these days.

I hope the UK will return it when a genuine American presides there again.

Huh? Alcohol and tobacco kill more people than all drugs combined?

If you think about it all the gifts the obomas have given have been "the worst gifts". They gave only ghetto gifts to classy people.

Heroin is an opiate.

Or did I misunderstand your post?

Opium,morphine,codeine,laudanum,and heroin are all “opiates.”

My point was that THC, the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana, is that BOTH THC and the opiates have the same effect of reducing the user's desire of making anything productive of himself.

You know,those who only want to lay about and get high while others carry their load—Dem voters for sure.

By the way, the cats DID get a wet-food Christmas dinner.
As you specified and provided.

Excellent! Maybe next time, Pretty-Face will let me hold her longer than 10 seconds.
