In 1929, a man called Harry Anslinger was put in charge of the Department of Prohibition in Washington, D.C. But alcohol prohibition had been a disaster. Gangsters had taken over whole neighborhoods. Alcohol — controlled by criminals — had become even more poisonous. So alcohol prohibition finally ended — and Harry Anslinger was afraid. He found himself in charge of a huge government department, with nothing for it to do. Up until then, he had said that cannabis was not a problem. It doesn’t harm people, he explained, and “there is no more absurd fallacy” than the idea it makes people violent. But then — suddenly, when his department needed a new purpose — he announced he had changed his mind. He explained to the public what would happen if you smoked cannabis. First, you will fall into “a delirious rage.” Then you will be gripped by “dreams... of an erotic character.” Then you will “lose the power of connected thought.” Finally, you will reach the inevitable end-point: “Insanity.” Marijuana turns man into a “wild beast.“ If marijuana bumped into Frankenstein’s monster on the stairs, Anslinger warned, the monster would drop dead of fright. Harry Anslinger became obsessed with one case in particular. In Florida, a boy called Victor Licata hacked his family to death with an axe. Anslinger explained to America: This is what will happen when you smoke “the demon weed.” The case became notorious. The parents of the U.S. were terrified. What evidence did Harry Anslinger have? It turns out at this time he wrote to the 30 leading scientists on this subject, asking if cannabis was dangerous, and if there should be a ban. Twenty-nine wrote back and said no. Anslinger picked out the one scientist who said yes, and presented him to the world. The press — obsessed with Victor Licata’s axe — cheered them on. In a panic that gripped America, marijuana was banned. The U.S. told other countries they had to do the same. Many countries said it was a dumb idea, and refused to do it. For example, Mexico decided their drug policy should be run by doctors. Their medical advice was that cannabis didn’t cause these problems, and they refused to ban it. The U.S. was furious. Anslinger ordered them to fall into line. The Mexicans held out — until, in the end, the U.S. cut off the supply of all legal painkillers to Mexico. People started to die in agony in their hospitals. So with regret, Mexico sacked the doctor — and launched its own drug war. For years, doctors kept approaching him with evidence he was wrong, and he began to snap, telling them they were “treading on dangerous ground” and should watch their mouths. Today, most of the world is still living with the ban on cannabis that Harry Anslinger introduced, in the nation-wide panic that followed Victor Licata’s killing spree. But here’s the catch. Years later, somebody went and looked at the psychiatric files for Victor Licata. It turns out there’s no evidence he ever used cannabis. He had a lot of mental illness in his family. In fact, the scientific evidence suggests cannabis is safer than alcohol. Alcohol kills 40,000 people every year in the U.S. Cannabis kills nobody Along with all of the gathered for my lovely sources he also used racism to get the people scared and petition to get it banned

Nugg Club Product Review
So I made a Nugg Club unboxing video last month and I'm finally getting around to reviewing some of the product. I'm only reviewing the edibles because I don't/can't smoke.
The box comes with a really good amount of product. You can't even see all the product that came in it when you first open the box.
These are the products my ma got, just so you can see what some of if the stuff you can get in the box. She said her favorite was the stone road pre rolls.
And here are all the edibles I got in the box.
If you love dark chocolate then you will love these. They don't taste that much of cannabis. Just dark chocolately goodness. I personally do like the taste of cannabis but if you don't then these would be good to try.
These have 2.5mg of thc per piece. That's perfect for me since I usually have to cut edibles into pieces for the right dose for me. I'm kind of a lightweight. I just take one with breakfast and one with lunch and I'm good for the day. Depending on how much thc you need you might have to take more than one if you need a higher dose.
The white peach pate from The Pantry. This one is really good. It tastes just like white peach, with the slight bitterness. So good. The sugar crystals give it a really nice crunch. It also doesn't have a cannabis taste.
These have 6mg of thc per piece. I have to cut these in half, one half with breakfast and one half with lunch. Depending on how much thc you need then you may need to dose less or more. But because I'm such a lightweight these last me a good while.
These are really strong, 27mg if thc per tab. I don't take these everyday. I only take them when I'm really anxious and my regular dosage isn't helping as much as they normally do and I just really want to de-stress. And it's bomb. It says cerebral high and it means cerebral high. I'm pretty productive when I'm on this too.
They dissolve on/under the tongue. I always need water or something to drink because the taste is not that great. It tastes like pills. But the taste doesn't linger, at least if you drink something to wash it down.
I really liked the box and I got another one that I filmed an unboxing for last night. Check out my last unboxing here. And if you want to get a monthly Nugg Club box for yourself you can check it out here while getting $5 off your first box.
