You seem to have lost touch with reality.  Completely.  You assume that
everyone who posts disagreeing with you proposes that a right-wing
conspiracy exists.  I have never said any such thing.  My reference was
a DoJ document entitled "Mescaline."  (DoJ, if you have managed to live in
the United States for any length of time, and have even the vaguest, most
foggy knowledge about the government, stands for "Department of Justice.")
This article admits that an illegal drug, mescaline, is completely harmless,
and even has medicinal properties.  The penalty for its possession can be
five years in prison.  Lest you think I am just making this up, I'll give you
its Library of Congress call number.  Then you can go to the library and check
it out (if you actually want to have your beliefs challenged).  Here it is:

End of me quoting myself.

"You lefties."  I like that one.  Would you believe I'm a registered
