    Jesus on Marijuana, it's ill effects and related accidents in the west

    Message to John Leary.

    Monday, March 18, 2019: (St. Cyril of Jerusalem)

    Jesus said: ...
    "The third proposal is to legalize marijuana in all of your states for recreational use. Your states think they can make money by taxing marijuana, as they do for cigarettes. This legalization is already causing more accidents on the road similar to deaths caused by alcohol. This drug will ruin your brains, and it makes no social sense to legalize. All of these proposals defy common sense, but they are all part of a plan to bring down your country. Pray for sound reasoning to prevail, or your country will go down in ruins.”

    Legalize marijuana.
    Once legalized, this will be sold publicly, the rates will come down. So as profits. Peddlers will be least interested to push their sales because of less profit. Automatically, the responsible users will buy it legally. School children will not be coerced by anyone to use ganja. Ultimately, this will be a better world to live.

    Looks like there is lot of demand for ganja and narcotics in Mangalore and coastal areas. Thats why every other day some or other is getting caught. Our youth must be educated about the devastating effects of drugs.

    No doubt Dawood and ISI agents are evil to India, but dont be a andha Bhakta. Moreover, this evil is wide spread in Mangalore if we go by the recent police raids and it destroys younger generation and families. Stringent punishment like long imprisonment should be handed over to the drug peddlers.
