Complete idiots, total fools:
Ignoring pleas from
mushroom retailers and consumers, the government yesterday announced
that clause 21 of the Drugs Act 2005, reclassifying psilocybe mushrooms
as a class A drug alongside heroin and crack cocaine, will come into
force on July 18.
From
that date, importation, possession or sale of magic mushrooms will be
punishable by a life sentence, effectively outlawing sales via market
stalls, head shops and the internet.
Laying
the statutory instrument before parliament, the Home Office said the
only exception would be for wild mushrooms, growing on uncultivated
land.
So let’s put the distribution of an addictive substance into the hands of violent criminals. Let’s make the offense carry the same sentence as murder. Let’s stop people growing and supplying it in controlled conditions yet allow the collection of wild growing specimens (I would note that playing fields on limestone containing soils are a useful source).
Well done lads, possibly the most hypnotically insane piece of law making even this shower of morons have managed. Could you stop the world please? I think I want to get off.
