All of my weed is homegrown or from New Mexico producers. That includes hash. No Taliban supporting going on here.

The U.S government has given the Taliban more money than you will ever know.

lol which country is that? Pakistan? Don't kid yourself

So what would you classify the relationship as? If it's not an ally then it's an enemy. Why would you be arming your enemy? I'm just curious. So far as i've read on the subject, and that's not much as US political relations doesn't interest me that much, it seems that you are allies.

Pakistan is an enemy. They are most certainly not an ally, any politician who says were are an ally of Pakistan is just trying to be politically correct as we give them millions of dollars in aid yearly so we have to save face. It is merely blackmail money or however you want to refer to it as, so we can transport fuel and other supplies from Pakistan to Afghanistan. Their intelligence services, the isi, are connected with many of the terrorists groups that the US is trying to eliminate. There are many people in the military, and political figures as well that have brought up the issue of military hardware we share with them is constantly being found in the possession of militants in Afghanistan. The reason we didn't share the information we had on Bin Laden and the raid that was going to be conducted, was that anytime we share information with them it finds its way to the people we're targeting. One example is when the CIA discovered a bomb factory in one of the tribally administered areas. There was a drone flying above the bomb factory that watched after we shared the information, all the materials and people in the building left. Once they were gone, the military showed up and raided the empty building. The best way you can tell if a country is an ally or enemy is to seek public opinion. Public opinion by most Pakistanis is that the US is an enemy to them, because we are an ally of Israel.

too much coffee today, I'm done

I don't EVER buy weed. Secondly, I only do sativa.

But what does it matter?

I support animal cruelty in all major grocery stores.

This site is ultra liberal.

I use gasoline which at some point supports the Taliban.

Nearly all our information about modern human anatomy came from Nazi human experiments, without them many medications and medical procedures wouldn't exist today.

I live in the United States which commits horrible human rights violations, like torture in Gitmo which Obama lied about closing.

If I let all that shit bother me, I'd live a rather pathetic life. It's hard enough finding vegan certified foods. So why should I give a fuck where the weed I smoke originally came from? As long as it gets me high. Bipolar sucks, I don't need the extra worry.

Best...... rant...... ever!

So if the US ships their drugs over here, aren't we helping the US too?

october will mark my first full year of not directly contributing to international drug commerce. i may not be able to stay away from "abused meat", i may not be able to stay out of walmart, and a good part of my wardrobe was probably made using child slave labor, but i no longer buy bags of weed with body counts attached. it's a small crusade i can actually maintain, and it feels pretty good.

Somethings we can't change, but playing a direct part in supporting a group such as the Taliban is not cool. So you are saying that you would buy weed, even knowing that the money mad supports a terrorist organization

And sticking your head in the sand doesn't change anything. It just makes you a bird, that can't fly.

Actually I thought it as a very weak argument towards justifying his beliefs.
