Quote:Federal law: Every living American can be arrested right now for felony possession of drugs made in their own brains Monday, February 18, 2013 by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
NaturalNews) If you are reading this, you are guilty of felony possession of a Schedule I controlled substance.
This is not a joke.
You, like everyone else who is alive and breathing, can be arrested right now by the U.S. federal government, charged with felony possession, then proven "guilty" of that possession because you do possess a Schedule I substance in your own brain.
What substance is that? Dimethyltryptamine, or DMT, sometimes called the "spirit molecule" because of its ability to allow humans to transcend states of consciousness.... The rest of the article @ NaturalNews.comSaw this today by chance, thought y'all might like to see it too. The rest of the article is a pretty good read. Nothing we didn't already know but still interesting to see others perspectives. Ray

Not sure what's the main point of that article. Seems like yet another fear-mongering write-up from Natural News. Some points I plain don't agree with. Quote:Patents on molecules
In addition to the legal issues state above, intellectual property (patent) laws state that certain arrangements of elements are the monopoly property of corporations such as drug companies. Under patent laws, arranging nitrogen, hydrogen, carbon and other elements into particular structures makes you a thief!
But philosophically, what have you stolen? Nothing! The elements already exist, and all possible combinations of all elements already exist as probabilities or permutations. To arrange elements in specific ways cannot possibly be "stealing" something, as these are the fundamental building blocks of the universe brought into existence by the Creator for the very purpose of making something.
That one is just wrong on so many levels. I mean a car is made out of fundamental building blocks of the universe, so what. Add the usual misinfo such as 'dmt is made in your brain' INFORMATION No input signal

Doesn't change the implication that your body is manufacturing and in possession of a Schedule I substance which was the point. "Science without religion is lame.

I like it. It's a little clunky and I'm not sure if I buy the "Government made DMT illegal to keep us dumb" argument as he puts it out there but it does speak to a very good point and one I love seeing promoted and that is the absolute absurdity of drug policy.

I completely disagree with his patenting statement that I quoted above. There's an entire industry of drug inventing and testing. People dedicate their lives to "arranging fundamental blocks of the universe". I mean we all know it's not perfect, theres a certain level of shadiness that is FDA and pharmaceutical companies but that shouldn't be the reason to make such ignorant statements however. Or this gem: Quote:Can anyone really criminalize the arrangement of elements which are individually considered perfectly legal? In other words, if nitrogen, hydrogen and carbon are considered legal, how can it be criminal to merely arrange them in certain formations? Doesn't he know at least a bit of science ? A high-schooler can tell it's all about the arrangement... arrangement that can create poison, a cure, or a useful industrial application, all stemming from the basic elements.
