O movimento em torno da legalização da Cannabis está muito forte, todos estamos vendo a inevitabilidade da Legalização. O argumento de que a Proibição não funciona está ganhando espaço diante de FATOS. Agora é possivel expor a verdadeira 'Porta de Entrada' que é na verdade o Trafico Ilegal de drogas, agora vemos possoas fazendo essa associação já vendo TAMBÉM o exemplo FENOMENAL do TABACO. Hoje socialmente desencorajado, socialmente tolerado e eficientemente afastado dos JOVENS, lembro que na minha idade todo mundo fumava em toda rodinha(tenho 30) e hoje a mulecada fuma ainda cigarro, mas já não tem aquele apelo.

A VERDADE está do nosso lado, são MILHARES de anos de USO e se tá na pista é porque é COISA BOA!

SAAAAAALLLLLVVEEEEE GROOOOWWWWWROOOOOOMM TU TA ESCRITO NESSA HISTORIA!!!!
