"Just say NO!"

To haikus?
"Haiku" is a traditional form of Japanese poetry.
Haiku poems consist of 3 lines.
The first and last lines of a Haiku have 5 syllables and the middle line has 7 syllables.
The lines rarely rhyme, but some scholars try to rhyme Line 1 and 3.
Okay, let's see who can come up with a Haiku that says the same thing.

Edgy like a boss,
The internet doesn?t know,
How I like to troll.
There. Haiku. I think.
Cigarette Ads.
This is the one that got me in the late 50's, when I had 2 paper routes in Sacramento.
I would end my morning route, delivering the Sacramento Bee, at a donut shop that had a Cigarette Machine that anyone could use.
After delivering the San Francisco Examiner after school, I would meet other kids and we would smoke and tell "battle" stories.

that doesn't make sense
Back in the day there was a funny, NSFW haiku website that was freakin' hilarious. For the life of me I can't remember what it was. I shed many a tear reading on that site.
I'm Spartacus
I spent the day out in my "hemp" fields. I was feeling inspired. And more than just a little hungry.
(For the Idaho State Police...I'm just kidding. I don't have hemp fields.)
I don't know if any of you guys heard about this... Truck driver going thru Idaho enroute to Colorado from Oregon with 7000 pounds of industrial hemp is stopped and arrested. Truck, trailer and cargo/hemp is seized. Tests confirm it's hemp. Too bad. Idaho law says hemp is same same as marijuana. Company doesn't get it back, federal judge rules. Idaho is now planning to sell the seized truck, trailer and hemp/marijuana. It's good to be king. Moral of the story: If you grow hemp in Oregon and want to ship to Colorado, take the long way around Idaho:

But think of all the lives those heroes have saved.
Gotta love how the State intends to sell the "crop" which they seized on premise of being illegal.
Really that's not a marijuana issue, that's a civil forfeiture issue. And it gets far, far worse:

In Detroit, Michigan, authorities raided a “Funk Night” event at the Contemporary Art Institute and seized 40 cars from the 130 attendees on the theory that the attendees were somehow responsible for the failure by organizers of the event to obtain a proper alcohol permit.

Then there is the case of 77-year-old Margaret Davis, whose Philadelphia home was targeted for forfeiture after a drug dealer—in the midst of a police chase, no less—broke into her home and attempted to hide the drugs in his possession. The dealer had been able to gain easy access because Davis, bedridden due to serious medical ailments, relied on her neighbors to provide her care. She frequently left her doors unlocked so they could come in and tend to her. Despite the fact that Davis clearly was not involved, the Philadelphia District Attorney filed a motion to seize the property.
^^ I have not had time to read all of that but I recall some of these instances from memory.
Yeah...I thought that was funny - in a really ironic sense - too.
It would be like seizing a keg from an underage drinking party and selling the beer.
I'm not really a fan of civil forfeiture. On the other hand, if I were growing hemp in Oregon I think I'd check the laws in states I needed to transit before shipping my product to Colorado because some states (like Oregon's neighbor, Idaho) still have very strict laws regarding marijuana.
Civil forfeiture
Violates 4th amendment
The Republic: lost
Oregon was one of those states that would pull you over for having Colorado plates after amendment 64.
Now they have too much marijuana LOL, heck marijuana would pop up anywhere a seed was dropped when I grew up there.
Didn't the fed courts just rule Civil Forfeiture without probable cause is illegal?
Can't you turn hemp into weed by cross pollinating? plant a bunch of hemp this year put a weed plant in the middle and next year they are all weed.
Are you assuming self-seeding? These plants aren't perennials.
Based on what I was reading here: https://www.northbaybusinessjournal....n-and-cannabis
...the marijuana producers are more concerned about the diminished strength of their crop if their marijuana plants are pollinated by fiber hemp plants. The buds have lower THC content. Even hemp used for grain/oil are negatively affected by the fiber varieties. It seems that the fiber hemp DNA 'wins' in the game of cross pollination.
