I thought we had moved on from water to saliva.

It's a privilege to pee...
Water's worth its weight in gold these days

No more bathrooms like in olden days!
You come here and pay a fee
For the privilege to pee!

I hate the whole "if one life is saved" crap. Seriously.

There are something like 40,000 traffic deaths in the US annually (slightly less than that). If we were to pass laws forcing governors to be put on cars allowing a max speed of 15 mph, that would probably be reduced to 4. Is 39996 lives worth that price?

Well, if they ban this form of sage, I can only imagine how many other herbs will follow suit.

Wow,19 posts... I half expected we'd have devolved into a pun war by now

I don't know why I have a problem with this, but I do. Strange considering I'm pretty anti-marijuana use. But then again, I'm anti-cigarette, so maybe I'm just against it when I think people will use it around me. Maybe I'm just coming into my own as a libertarian, haha.

I do think banning a plant is pretty stupid. Funny how the only difference between being an "endangered species" and a "threat to the lives of our children" is how useful the plant might be.

I'm like you... Have no problems with marijuana usage per se; but I can't stand smoking in any form.

You know what should be outlawed? Those Cabury Creme Eggs. Pure sugar laced poison on the inside. Too sweet if you asked me.

Hallucinogenic Herb sounds like some sort of cartoon character.

He hangs out with Miami Herald (an actual newspaper, but sounds like a great character name).

I'm waiting for them to ban nutmeg after someone figures out how to get high on it.

Although, I recall that nutmeg is lethal if injected directly into the bloodstream.

If only one life is saved...

So is water, shall we ban that too?
