No More Garlic?

I was in a convenient store the other day, getting some food for Gizmo, my cat. They had a TV on in the store, and a news channel was on, discussing a recent controversy in Italy about the possibility of banning garlic

Well I have to admit I HATE garlic, but as you said:

i tend to believe people should be able to make their own decisions about what they choose o put in their bodies, whether it be garlic, transfats, heroin, cigaretts, weed, etc.

I agree. And weed isn't only a hell of a lot less harmful than crack, it's a hell of a lot less harmful than alcohol.

But anyway, I've seldom heard anything so stupid as to ban garlic. Can't someone ban morons who want to arbitrarily ban things, so that we can all live in peace and quiet? Jesus!

yeah, i mean, i hate mushrooms, but its not for me to say if someone else wants to eat them.
(i'm still considering trying the magic kind tho)

and yeah, weed is a lot better for you than alcohol or cigarettes or most of the meds people are on for random disorders

i want weed now. i wish i could just buy it at a liquor store or a cafe or something.

Dude, you do have to relocate to Amsterdam. Or even Germany, it's close enough to Holland that our judicial system doesn't give a hoot what we smoke, so it's legal to consume it here at least. I don't even think it's health concerns that are keeping it illegal in the States, it's the fact that some industries would forfeit profit if the consumption of THC were legal, and they have the political clout to prevent it.

[djcliche]

yeah, it totally isnt health concerns. cuz its proven that weed is better for you than legal tobacco cigarettes. it has a lot to do with racism and politics, exactly.

drug companies are evil

but but but.....I LOVE garlic! I guess I'd start having to buy it on the black market from some dude in a trenchcoat. "Hey lady, you wanna buy some stuff? I've got primo herb right here, great for cooking."

[djcliche]

[djcliche]

[jbredrebel]

totally! garlic has been known for it's healthy properties... sure it stinks, but not THAT bad.... it tastes good too! where would we be without italian food like! good ol garlic bread with our pizza or spaghetti!
i sometimes make my own pasta sauce and i fry chopped garlic in olive oil before adding it to the tomato sauce and it's awesome!

[djcliche]

as far as i'm conscerned, it isnt real tomato sauce if it doesnt have garlic in it.
