Georgia Cops Mistake Okra For Marijuana, Send The Big Guns To Man's House

just legalize weed though. I can't imagine having legalized heroin, meth, and cocaine.

Why not? Because of a real reason or because you're conditioned to think that "hard drugs" are bad by decades of indoctrination?

He's lucky they didn't shoot both him and his dog. The fact that he got an apology is a near miracle.

Or a citation for causing a public disruption, or a bill for all that personnel and equipment.

Don't some other countries offer accessible treatment for addictions? In the US, can you really seek treatment for addictions to these things? Or is an attempt to find treatment a quick ticket to jail? We're certainly good at locking tough problems away and trying really hard to ignore them (people with drug addictions, mental health problems...).
Properly addressing problems isn't always easy to do. Burying them or pushing them out of sight......well, that's expensive, though quite profitable if you're operating a prison company.

It is funny how much the okra leaf and marijuana plant leaf look alike. I never would have thought that.

Definitely different though.

If they think those things are closely-related or similar, I hope they never see a maple tree.
