Yeah, but until Leary it was legal. The very fact that LSD is illegal is a shame on our species. It is a glorious substance which causes no physical harm. Used in the proper set and setting it brings only joy and enlightenment. I would recommend it without reservation to anyone who is an adult. Nothing has contributed to the shaping of my value system more than the LSD experiences that I have had. I have dwealt in that state for so many hours that the spirit of it will be forever embedded in my soul.

Leary was a good man, and he caused LSD to come into the public conciousness...but also to the attention of the legal system whom he alienated with his extremest evangelical behavior.

An interesting note: As of June growing Psilocybe mushrooms for personal consumption in New Mexico is apparently legal.

"New Mexico #
New Mexico appels court ruled on June 16, 2005, that growing psilocybin mushrooms for personal consumption could not be considered "manufacturing a controlled substance" under state law. Growing hallucinogenic mushrooms not illegal, state appeals court rules - June 16 2005" --Erowid

Comments anyone?

Don't tell me that they made it illegal just because of Leary. :grin:

They made it illegal because of what it does to you.  Mushrooms are illegal, pot, E, and every other mind awakening, matrix revealing, love and peace inducing drug because of the effects they produce in the consciousness of individuals. If only the "Priests" get to use these substances for our collective good, I think the same thing that happened with religions would happen. So for better or worse, I say, have some.

"Don't tell me that they made it illegal just because of Leary"

His testimony in front of the congress about why it should remain legal was one of the deciding reasons they used in outlawing it. His endorsement of it was also seen as a threat.

If it wasn't him it would have been someone else. No way it was going to stay legal unless only the high priests of science could use it. That leaves me out. Fuck that.
