Nepe ji, It is our belief that Gyanendra and alikes are the most prolific drug abusers. This is because they are exploiting this notion of so-called "drugs" to bar ppl from their natural rights. This swine called Gyanendra was even making money out of it. The view of our party is that we oppose drug abuse. But the case with pot is that not all plants of pot are rich in THC compound, there are a lot of other variants which dont have THC and they can be excellent sources of food grains, cellulose fiber, fuel, carbon-arrest, etc etc. THC is akin to melanin in we humans which gives us skin color. Both are products of natural evolution to counteract UV-radiation in their respective species. Banning all pot citing THC is purely racial discrimination. How many ppl in the third world are getting balanced diets? More than 1/3 of the world's population still depends on sub-grade crops like millet, corn etc as their staple diets; those crops are not that productive as pot and they require fertilizers,insecticides etc which again provides a means of control by these developed nations upon them in terms of technology, seeds and fertilizers, farming equipment and so on. Our point is, if you dont attack a country which allows pot cultivation (our fear is USA does that) to solve its problems, because pot can grow quite efficiently and with a better yield, then their problems will be immediately solved. For elaborated discussions, may I have the chance to draw your attention to the fact-file our leader has compiled - http://sajha.com/sajha/html/openThread.cfm?forum=2&ThreadID=22921 Lets keep rolling...
