Spring is Bringing Rain, Floods and CBD Oil

I don’t think it’s a secret a good number of Americans have pushed for the legalization of marijuana for quite some time.

During my college (state university) days, one could sit in the student union working on homework and detecting the smell of pot wafting through the student union. That was many many days ago. Yet in spite of what appeared to be at the time a desire by the American people to use pot, there continued to be draconian laws penalizing anyone caught smoking or possessing marijuana.

Many lives have been ruined by the enforcement of these laws.

States are now legalizing (mostly via referendum) the usage of pot. Some of the laws only allow for some sort of medical use and others are making recreational use legal. States are moving in this direction, even though the federal government continues to be against any law liberalizing pot usage. 

I have often thought how could a government of the people on the federal level get it so wrong. The government and its various agencies continue to harass the very people who put it in power. State governments see the handwriting on the wall and are bending to the will of the people.

Now moving on to a product many folks believe is related to marijuana … CBD Oil (a dietary supplement) is taking the country by storm. Americans (young to old) rushing to use CDB oil for all kinds of reasons.

I can’t give you specific cites, but going from memory as the news articles fly by … CBD oil is becoming an ingredient in many products … I see it offered up in jelly beans, alcohol products, etc. The American people want it so badly that they are rushing to purchase products with the oil being a necessary ingredient. Plus, they’re even buying the oil and taking it straight. Imagine that? LOL

Maybe, it’s good for you, then again perhaps it's not. It kind of reminds me of watching old westerns where they feature a medicine man coming into town offering up a product that cures everything. As it stands now, the CBD medicine man acts a lot in the same way.

Be that as it may …

What we are seeing is that the American people want marijuana & CBD Oil so intensely they are running and jumping to the arms of anyone who satisfies this need and desire.

Hey, you government folks who think you are supposed to control our lives and force us to do what you think we should be doing … 

We, the people are doing what we want to do, NOT what you think is best. FREEDOM is something you should read up on.

SO BACK OFF!!!

Behavioral Modification

I have spent the last week or so being around young school age children in our local school district. Ages ranging from Prep-K up to early high school. I have to admit it's fascinating to watch how the system works in order to make these young people comply with acceptable behavior. For example ...  be quiet when they want to talk, sit still when they want to dance, study when they want to play, stand in line when they wish to wander and the biggie to say that which is acceptable to say as opposed to speaking honestly about what's in their hearts and minds. As somewhat of an outsider, I watched the enforcers take action against those who failed to comply. Amazingly enough, the students did exactly what they were told to do. BUT ...... As soon as the enforcer was gone, they became who they are ... KIDS!!! You got to love them!!!

Our Current Political Leaders are a DISGRACE

This current batch of political leaders are most disingenuous ... thus, disgracing their elevated leadership status. Perhaps, referring to them as such is a little strong .... nevertheless, it may NOT be too far off the mark. If any of our elected leaders truly cared about a solution to the immigration problem, then at this very moment we would be talking about workable solutions instead of blaming each other for the lack thereof. The images we are being presented with regarding detention of children are simply put forth to elicit emotional outbursts as opposed to serving as a basis for generating solutions to the overall problem of illegal immigration and border security. Once again, the defenseless  (in this case the most helpless of all ... children) are getting hurt and are no more than political pawns. Hey!!! Washington ... these defenseless folks have families, breath, blood and emotions. Management types in business, will tell the minions ... that if we are not par...

Human - Sex/Labor Trafficking

Human trafficking is characterized by the use of force, fraud or coercion to lure their victims into some type of labor or commercial sex act. Not all of these above factors may be present in every situation. Human trafficking is a crime which is seldom reported due to language barriers, fear of traffickers and possibly fear of law enforcement itself. Craigslist, to their credit ... removed the "Personals" section within their online service in March of 2018 due to Federal legislative decree stiffening penalties associated with sex trafficking. It was the right move legally, ethically and morally. Sex trafficking is a subset of the larger issue known as "Human Trafficking." It is not an unreasonable stretch of logic to equate sex trafficking with the trafficking of labor, e.g. illegals being brought into the U.S. for the purpose of working in American businesses. A good number of American businesses are INDEED guilty of said labor trafficking. No place is ...
