I love how they allow a musician to play with a giant pot leaf behind him, then can be quoted on a need to stop drugs from being sold to children.

Psychedelics are tools which can assist us in the evolution of our consciousness. They help us to communicate with the Earth. I think our growth and connection to the Earth is linked in a way I don't have words for presently.
We need to start calling the illegalization of psychedelics for what it really is.
IT IS A WAR ON THE PLANET THAT LOVES US AND NEEDS OUR HELP. IT IS A WAR ON OUR CONSCIOUSNESS.
I remember seeing a video that mentioned something interesting about the BULLSHIT orwellian "War on Terror", I recall a fellow saying that the right side of your brain might be interpreting it as "War on Terra". It sounds like reaching but we know Dick Cheney and his friends are behind this war. We know that Dick Cheney doesn't give a fuck about this planet or any of the sentient beings that inhabit it.
If there is any justice D.C. and his oxygen-thief friends will not be allowed to reincarnate on this planet.
Earth does not want them here. All who make war upon the Earth and consciousness itself need to GO AWAY! FUCK THEM!
Sorry about the rant, needed to get that off my chest.

It sucks, but I don't see why he was carrying 14,000 hits in the first place. Did he really expect on selling all that? Even if he could, it wouldn't be smart... every patron of the festival would know him and that he's doing something illegal.
This is the problem with dealing - too risky. It would be great to try acid, but I'm just thankful that we have mushrooms and that they're so easy to grow. That way you could still trip and not have to involve anybody else in your personal affairs. It would be really nice if LSD were easier to manufacture.

Bob, LSD is nothing like mushrooms. The experience is not even close to the same.

That's fine, and I've heard that before, but... if you couldn't obtain it or if it were really really difficult, which it is from my experience, would you rather have mushrooms or nothing? That's my point. At least there is an option in the line of psychedelic drugs.
I've never done acid before, but I could imagine that it would be a closer experience to mushrooms than, say, cocaine, or alcohol, right?

I didn't say that LSD and mushrooms were as far apart as alcohol and cocaine. I said mushrooms and LSD are probably closer than LSD and alcohol in terms of experience. Or LSD and mushrooms are closer in experience than cocaine and LSD.
I mean they're classified under the same drug type... hallucinogens. Cocaine is not even considered to be in that realm of drugs.

Okay, because you didn't say it like that at first.
I know that I have had trips that varied greatly while using mushrooms. You're saying, though, that the LSD trips are trips that you could never achieve with mushrooms, correct?
But you're tripping, still, and could use that trip to think in different ways that you never would, to find things out about yourself and the world, to become grounded with your spiritual self, and so on. Would you agree on that point even if the levels of experience were vastly different?

Alright... it's difficult to know, not having experienced it myself.
It's confusing when I've read trip reports from Timothy Leary's graduate students and one from Gordon Wasson. Leary's students, of course, took LSD in varying quantities and Wasson took mushrooms.
Leary's students had trips that ranged from playful and mild sounding to ones where they couldn't move through the room because the energy was too thick and they were terrifed that they would never return to reality. Wasson had a trip report that described him being transported to a heaven like place where he was a bird-god or something. When he describes such an intense experience from Cubensis mushrooms, it's difficult to see where the difference lies.
I wonder how dosing plays into things, though. What's the largest dose of mushrooms you've ever taken and what was the experience like?
Does the acid change your thought patterns in a different way than the mushrooms? Is there still that sense of oneness that so often comes with mushrooms? Are the visuals more intense?
I'd like to get a handle on the differences; although, I'll probably never have acid. I've never heard of anybody selling it, and I'd be leary if I found somebody who was. Manufacturing LSD is more than slightly more difficult than growing pot or mushrooms.
