interstingly enough, shroooms are mot considered acontrol substance, it's the psilocybin they contain that is illeagal. somehow, the laws in my state have construed this too mean that it's OK too posses and grow Psilocybe mushrooms, but once you dry them, they are illeagal. my advice too you is either eat them fresh or dry them quickly and hide them well.

thats not true, as a recreational marijuana user i can tell you that it was your friend(s) own choice to steal a truck and then go so fast with it as to be ejected from it. marijuana use does not impair your judgement so much as to "make you" choose to do bad things, but rather its an excuse by many people to do stupid things which in turns makes most peaceful potheads look bad.

Matthew if you want something more in this life than you shouldn't hide by using "trips" away from it. Wanting something more means that you should challenge yourself to find more in the real world which has highs and lows that are not artificial. It's life. Live it.

There are records of people being killed by drivers under the influence of marajuana and other illegal substances. Drugs kill brain cells and allow people to do things they would not do under normal sercumstances. These drugs were made illegal for your protection. I have had one of my friends killed because he got high and stole a truck. Him and one of his other friends were ejected form the vehicle and died on impact. These drugs are not harmless.
