I get high just watching children play, but don’t tell the politicians or they will outlaw playgrounds. That is how rediculous things are getting. Grain alcohol is legal so they want to regulate sage!!! God help us.

Yeah, it’s pretty nuts. I just can’t see the police making the proper distinction between plants, which means lots of trouble for people who just want to grow ornamental herbs.

Please, Please, tell me how you can possibly make a plant illegal?

Is that not absurd? Especially considering the legality of tobacco…

God, this whole topic makes me so angry.

Reading the wiki page about this plant, it sounds as though there are lots of people who would benefit from the non-addictive plant. Perhaps the pharmaceutical industry is pushing for this because they want to corner the market. There are several pharmaceutical companies currently seeking patents on the marajuana plant for that very purpose.

Johnny that is spot on. If the salvia lobby was writing checks to our legislators, we’d never hear a peep about the “evil” plant.

Yeah, forget about alcohol and tobacco, which kills hundreds of thousands of people annually, and go after a harmless herb that doesn’t have a powerful lobby paying legislators to keep it legal. It’s a real shame that with all of the problems facing our state, these two-bit, modern day Puritans want to grandstand on things like outlawing the sale of sex toys and herbs.

It’s so much easier to go after plants than deal with the real problem–the tremendous costs and consequences of addiction and/or people who do reckless things while ‘under the influence.’
