One day during my youthfulness, I was engaging in a joint that I had bought, and suddenly I experienced side effects that weren’t normal. It was obviously laced with something that sent me on a trip that scared me to death. During this event, I asked Jesus to help me and promised to never smoke weed again. He did help me and I never smoked weed again. Now, I’ve had my trials and joys in my life just like everyone else and times where I’ve soared and others that were devastating, but throughout these experiences, I did not turn to marijuana to help or comfort me; I turned to Christ, the One who rescued me. A few weeks back, there was the election where several pot ...

(Watch video at link) California’s NAACP is pushing for state lawmakers to support a campaign to remove “The Star Spangled Banner” as the country’s national anthem. The group says the song, which has been a point of controversy in the NFL, is “one of the most racist, pro-slavery, anti-black songs in the American lexicon,” The Sacramento Bee reported Tuesday. The NAACP’s California chapter last week reportedly sent out two resolutions, which had been passed at the organizations state conference last month. NAACP WARNS AFRICAN-AMERICANS ABOUT FLYING ON AMERICAN AIRLINES One of the resolutions was to support the removal of the anthem, while the other is ...

1. Tao
------
The Tao that can be known is not Tao.
The substance of the World is only a name for Tao.
Tao is all that exists and may exist;
The World is only a map of what exists and may exist.
One experiences without Self to sense the World,
And experiences with Self to understand the World.
The two experiences are the same within Tao;
They are distinct only within the World.
Neither experience conveys Tao
Which is infinitely greater and more subtle than the World.
2. Qualities

When Beauty is recognized in the World
Ugliness has been learned;
When Good is recognized in the World
Evil has been learned.
In this way:

Feds want cash seized in a raid last year, so they’re suing the cash

The federal government is suing a bundle of cash seized in a drug raid last year near Key West that turned up a smaller amount of cocaine and marijuana than agents anticipated they’d find when they served their warrant. As in many “in rem” asset forfeiture cases, the feds want the money because they suspect it was gained from illegal drug sales. The people arrested in the case were charged, and one has already pleaded guilty to cocaine possession. The other defendant’s marijuana and drug paraphernalia case is still in the courts. The money, totaling $166,400, was found in a laundry basket inside a Big Coppitt Key home where a federal, state and local drug task ...
Getting High and Holy at the International Church of Cannabis

Steve Berke, founder of the Denver nonprofit religious organization Elevation Ministries, stands on stage at his brand new International Church of Cannabis and takes two deep drags from a hefty joint. He closes his eyes, raises his head skyward, and exhales. In the wooden pews facing him, 50 or so people follow his lead. Smoke rises toward the heavens, settling in among the vivid Technicolor murals spread across the vaulted ceiling. This minute of silence, a quiet celebration of the “sacrament of cannabis” held every day at 4:20 p.m., is apparently as religious as the International Church of Cannabis gets. Elevationism boasts no other regular services, no doctrine, no divine law, ...

At least two Pennsylvania doctors whom the state approved to recommend medical marijuana will not be seeing patients anytime soon. Mehdi Nikparvarfard, who owns six urgent-care facilities, has been held on federal charges in Philadelphia since August for allegedly threatening to kill a U.S. marshal. Jan Neil Widerman, an osteopathic pediatrician who practices in Northeast Philadelphia, was arrested in March 2016 after firefighters allegedly discovered a pot-growing operation in his burning house. Police seized 40 marijuana plants, paraphernalia, and about $16,400 from Widerman’s home in Holland, Bucks County. On June 18, he was found guilty on a misdemeanor drug possession charge ...

SAN DIEGO (NEWS 8/CNS) — A pre-dawn crash involving a luxury sports car left a man dead and a woman injured Sunday. Firefighters say the Lamborghini the man was speeding in on North Harbor Drive smashed into a palm tree in the early morning hours and burst into flames.

On Tuesday, San Diego County Medical Examiner's Office confirmed that the drive was 33-year-old Michael Llamas.

Facebook banned them. That didn’t stop their mischief. Since 1994, Charles Stamps has organized the MLK Grande Parade, an annual march in Houston. But right now, the January event is getting an unusual signal boost: from BlackMattersUS.com, a website that largely looks like a hub of racial-justice activism but is in fact the creation of Kremlin-funded trolls who attempted to intensify heated American issues during the 2016 election and have continued to do so in the year since. “I think it’s a load of BS. My name is Charles—it’s not comrade,” Stamps told me Monday when I called him, informing him for the first time that BlackMattersUS was promoting his event. ...

Legalizing marijuana use in Illinois won't only lead to more vehicle crashes, but it will hamstring police and prosecutors by making arrests problematic, transportation experts said Tuesday at a AAA forum. Illinois has allowed medical marijuana since 2014, and legislation is pending in the General Assembly to permit the general use and sale of up to one ounce for people 21 and older. "We finally made so much headway with reducing fatal alcohol-related car crashes, and now this comes along and blows it out of the water," Carol Stream Deputy Police Chief John Jungers said at the Oak Brook conference. "My concern is about putting a law in place without being prepared for ...

When you’re getting dressed in the morning, you look for a shirt in your closet – not your refrigerator. When you want to go out to dinner, you look for a restaurant – not a dentist’s office. And when you’re a cop looking for radical Islamic terrorists … well, let’s just say you don’t look in a convent, a monastery or a rabbinical seminary. Is this politically correct? Absolutely not. Is it simple common sense? Of course it is. There’s no question that the vast majority of Muslims in America are peaceful, law- abiding and hardworking men and women. They serve in our armed forces and police departments, teach in our schools, treat us in ...
Occult Worship – Hollywood’s Other Dirty Secret That Everyone Knows of But No One Talks About

The avalanche of revelations about the perverted and predatory sexual underbelly of Hollywood and the entertainment industry is long overdue. It has always been an open secret of sorts, but the whole house is coming down right now as more people are suddenly feeling empowered to speak out, and the media is finally ready to listen and take seriously to the stories of victims. But what if pedophilia and the sexual harassment of women in entertainment is only a symptom and not actually the disease? Just below the surface, hidden in plain sight in Hollywood is the overwhelming influence of the occult and the esoteric schools of ancient black magic. It has always been present in this ...
Study: Nearly 70% of online CBD marijuana extracts are mislabeled

With 29 states and the District of Columbia having now legalized medical marijuana, many consumers are trying out various types of extracts containing cannabidiol (CBD)—a relatively safe, non-addictive component of marijuana that does not generate a “high” and has shown potential for treating a variety of conditions, including pain, anxiety, and epilepsy. But those buying CBD extracts online may not be getting what they signed up for, according to new research. In a study of 84 CBD products sold by 31 companies online, blind testing found that only about 31 percent of them contained the amount of CBD listed on the label (within +/- 10 percent). And some of the products ...

Newly released audio from the Clark County Fire Department has provided even more proof that there were multiple shooters during The Las Vegas Massacre, further debunking the official narrative of a lone gunman on the 32nd floor and once again calling into question almost every aspect of what actually happened during the worst mass shooting in American history. The audio, released on the SoundCloud account of a local news reporter, is an almost three hour recording of transmissions between dispatch and units on the ground amid the confusion of the mass shooting that at one point details a report that a wife of a firefighter was actually pinned down in the Foundation Room bar on top of ...
With online medical marijuana, it’s buyer beware

(Reuters Health) - People who buy medical marijuana online may not necessarily get exactly what they expect when their package arrives in the mail, new research suggests. Online, almost 70 percent of products made from cannabidiol – a marijuana plant extract also called CBD – had higher or lower concentrations of this drug than the label described, researchers report in JAMA. Too little or too much CBD can be unsafe or ineffective. For the study, researchers searched online for medical marijuana products and bought 84 products marketed as containing CBD from 31 different companies. Roughly one in five of the products also contained THC, the chemical in cannabis that makes gives ...

Parents, your fears have been confirmed: Drinking alcohol and smoking pot really may affect your teen’s future. The news should really not be a surprise. There’s been ample research—and even more media coverage—on the effects substance use can have on the teenage brain. New research adds to the connection. Researchers at the University of Connecticut studied 1,165 people over the course of their teenage years into early adulthood. Specifically, they wanted to know how heavy drug and alcohol use might impact key adult milestones like working full time, getting married and completing their education. In general, the subjects who used lots of pot as teens were less ...

Here’s a video taken of another “hero” law enforcer who makes up “the law” on the spot! A guy is filming the publicly visible exterior of a police station from a public sidewalk – which is (for the moment) abundantly legal – when he is approached by two confrontational “heroes” who – of course – demand his ID, Soviet-style. Not because the man is committing a crime – but because he is challenging the authority of the “heroes.” It is time, therefore, for a Dominance Display. The fact that this sort of thing is has become routine in the United States says a lot about the state of the United States, which is no longer ...

Photo: WFAA Video Screenshot A Texas private university says it will add armed and unarmed security to shuttle buses following a shooting incident that occurred on campus Tuesday morning. Texas Christian University (TCU) does not allow concealed carry on campus. As a privately owned university, it chose to opt out of the law that allows people with a Texas License to Carry to carry a concealed handgun on campus. On Tuesday morning, gunfire erupted after an argument between two campus shuttle bus drivers got out of hand. One driver received minor injuries after a second driver pulled a handgun fired in his direction, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported on Tuesday. The injury occurred as ...

Assault rifles are actually not guns at all — that’s according to MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle, at least. During a morning segment of MSNBC Live, the host made the false, patently absurd claim during a discussion on repealing the Second Amendment. “Why do you need any assault rifles? An assault rifle is different than a gun. A hunting enthusiast and one who needs an assault rifle, those are two different things,” said Ruhle. Of course, assault rifles are actually not different than guns — they are guns. Additionally, prior to Ruhle going off script, she described the weapon used by the Texas church shooter as an “assault-type rifle.” The actual weapon ...
