Sell these forests to the lumber companies OR

Use them as live-fire live-target training grounds for SEAL/green beret/deltaforce snipers

GMTA!

The Sierra Club is full of pot smoking new-age hippies. I gave up on them and their agenda years ago when they got so wacko.

As things are, probably it will take the death of an innocent hiker to convince Washington to do what’s necessary and to do it soon.

Only one? Probably wouldn't be noticed.

Strange but true: Homeland Security doesn’t have the legal authority here. In the case of national parks, it is the Department of Interior, and in the case of national forests, it is the Department of Agriculture.

The Microsoft mapping/satellite thingie picked up my new roof within 3 weeks!

Google still shows a vacant lot next door, and the “new” house there is 6 years old.

Cartels in the forest with assault rifles? In NM varmints can be shot on site. Another wonderful thing about the Remington 700,,, doesn’t eject casings. Remember, leave the forest clean as you found it,,dont litter!

Wouldn’t you rather deal with a guy like Al Gore, bragging about how he grew tobacco, than with a violent gangster?

Back in those days I grew it! (Oohs and ahs from the crowd)

I hung it up in my garage and I dried it! (Gasps and increasing cheers)

I trimmed the buds and weighed it and bagged it! (Whoops and applause)

I rolled it and I smoked it! (Crowd goes nuts)

And then I supported the American economy by buying every snack food and drink 7-11 had to offer! (Oh how presidential!!!)

Addicitve qualities of cocaine are far more severe than alcohol. The health ramifications are likewise far worse. Back in the late nineteenth century everything had cocaine in it. Getting rid of it had alot to do creating with federal drug regulation. Bad stuff. It should stay illegal.

THC is not as addicitve as alcohol and its health effects are fire milder than alcohol. Maybe if it were legal the libs would be more likely to contemplate that each atom in their little finger is like a tiny little universe than getting involved in politics...

Sorry, Rhino, but I believe NM is already infested. Gila Wilderness? I think so, but can’t remember what I read about it.

That’s part of why they call it weed, it grows good with little to no human assistance.

A quality plant takes alot of care and feeding, and it must be harvested just before the buds go to seed.

Most of them aren’t gunning for quality. That’s why “home grown” means “bad”. They’re looking for low risk production, which is what the national parks have (accidentally) provided for a very long time.

Well, it’s not like I want my kids to snort coke. I agree that recreational drugs are “bad.” They have terrible side effects. But historically, the issue with addictive cocaine has gone through human society from time to time.

For most of mankind’s history, recreational alcohol was obtained through fermentation, which yielded relatively low concentrations. However, in the 15th or 16th century, the process of distillation became much more prevalent. The result, at least in England, was gin. And a social malaise unlike anything seen before. Everything you read about the coke and meth epidemic in America today was written about gin in the 1600’s. The gin epidemic led to the founding of the Methodist Church to combat the social rot caused by gin alcoholism.

My point is that we get over in time. And I’m done working, so I can go home to my Beefeater’s, tonic water & lime.

I don’t know about that. A lot of the fields they’ve been finding now are actually planted with thousands of rooted cuttings from female plants rather than having been started from seed. This way all the plants are female and the buds get bigger and more resinous and never go to seed. Also, a lot of these huge plots have extensive irrigation. It looks like even the Mexicans are starting to try to produce higher quality product so they can sell it for more money. They’re putting a lot of work into it.

“Anybody have any idea why the sale of marijuana is profitable enough to cause the Mexicans to plant it in our national parks?”

Me! Me! I know the answer!
