as of about 2 oclock today the mushy's are banned ,this goverment are a bit of a joke banning somthing that grows naturally and has been used for hundreds of years in our country .
i can see it now cops on stake out s in fields in case any mushy's think about growing !!! they can be arrested
Get the facts. The sale of them raw (legal up till now), is what's being banned.Originally Posted by anto1208
Harney quote, "In December I met with the family of a young man who died after having consumed psychoactive mushrooms. At that time it had become clear that the sale of magic mushrooms was increasingly commonplace, and I directed that legislation be prepared to clarify the law to ensure that the trade in these drugs could not continue."
You can't spell failure without FAI
No harm. Stick to the regular mushrooms.
Never play leapfrog with a unicorn!!
its a joke i did nt actually think the cops would be out arresting mushrooms ya plonker .
it is also illegal to pick them which is my point , they grow naturally every where all over our country but to pick one makes you a criminal . its not just the sale of them in shops
While we're busy calling people plonkers, here's your first post with the more obvious glaring errors highlighted. You might like to think about learning about such fields as spelling, capitalisation and grammar - particularly the use of the apostrophe - before calling names.its a joke i did nt actually think the cops would be out arresting mushrooms ya plonker .
Now, with that out of the way, only a plonker would actually think that I'd thought that he'd thought that the cops would be arresting inanimate objects. The very idea would look bizarre in a particularly odd Douglas Adams story.
However, it clearly was legal to sell them unprocessed. That loophole is being shut. Frankly, given the enormous catalogue of things you could consider calling the government a joke over, closing a legal loophole that permitted the sale of an hallucinogen is trite.it is also illegal to pick them which is my point , they grow naturally every where all over our country but to pick one makes you a criminal . its not just the sale of them in shops

ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha i bet your a great laugh down the pub , correcting gramer .an apostrophe FFS
Another example of the lazy arse youth of today. Can they not just go and pick them like we used to?
Always look for the real story behind these stories that cause outrages and block up the media coverage. Terrible week for the Government, particularly the carnage on the roads alot of which is down to drink. How many months/years has the Government had to legislate on this rather than a rush job not even directly related to a particular case? Legislation out of nowhere is always covering up other things imo.
If you attack me with stupidity, I'll be forced to defend myself with sarcasm.
The shrooms being sold in shops aren't Irish and are better quality. God be with the days of being out in a field with your plastic bag at 7 in the morning.
There was a field near Bandon that had a large amount of mushrooms - it used be called The Field Of Dreams
ive just spotted an ad at the bottom of this page for organic mushroom kits
i was listening to bill hicks recently going on about people taking drugs and jumping of buildings because they thought they could fly , hilarious
fav line "if they thought they could fly why did nt they try taking off from the ground you dont see pigeons getting escalators to the roof of buildings "
A pointless exercise that would make King Canute blush.
They can't ban october ....and when october comes.
" I wish to God that someone would be able to block out the voices in my head for five minutes, the voices that scream, over and over again: "Why do they come to me to die?"
Yet another example of the pure-blood-Irish, anti 2g sentiments prevalent on these pages.
I think they were spawned from seeds of Irish mushrooms so they may yet qualify to be Irish.
due to the change in climate they can be found from mid august to october ..... god bless global warming ..A pointless exercise that would make King Canute blush.
They can't ban october ....and when october comes.
but surely its safer to go to a shop and buy proper ones rather than go around a field picking up god only knows what , taking the wrong dose etc etc .....but as we know the gov dont care
doesn't 'died from taking magic mushrooms' sound a lot like politicky speak? you generally don't die from hallucinogens. so... how did the kid die??
Consumed 4 mushrooms, along with some alcohol. Felt sick and then vomitted in the toilet, then ran out the door of the apartment and went up to the roof and jumped off the edge.
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
Funny I don't see the shutters being put up on any pubs or off licences because a kid jumped off a building after conuming "some alcohol".
Why blame one drug and not the other? Particularly when anyone in the emergency services will tell you they're pulling about body a week -of some poor misfortune who got depressed on ALCOHOL ALONE out of our rivers.
" I wish to God that someone would be able to block out the voices in my head for five minutes, the voices that scream, over and over again: "Why do they come to me to die?"
one reason money !! ive had 2 friends 1 drank a bottle of whiskey and jumped of a bridge killed himself and an other drank a load of pints went home and hung himself .. both the fault of alchol but i would nt dream of wanting drink to be banned .
why should every one suffer because of one or 2 people .
lets put it into context
1 person dies on mushrooms and alchol : muchrooms banned
around 50,000 die from alchol abuse : wont be banned
an other 50,000 from fags:wont be banned
nearly 500 a year from cars :wont be banned
its the typical responces from people that just do not know what they are talking about what good is banning drugs , all it does is make millionares out of criminals , it does nt stop people buying or taking drugs for one single second .
The overall majority can drink responbily so you can't put a blanket ban on something because a minority can't.
The same cannot be argued for hallucinogens - you cannot take these "responsibly" simply because of their makeup - they dangerously alter the state of mind in any dose. A few drinks and your coordination might be a bit slower but a few mm's you could be throwing yourself off a bridge, as that young lad's family found recently.
"Inflatable hammers and Leprechaun suits, & a chorus of "Here we go" or Olé, Olé"....
but surely banning their sale and sending people back to picking them in fields makes it all the more difficult to take them responsibly?
can you with 100% certainty say that poor youngfella flipped out as a result of the mushrooms and not the booze?
4 feckin mushooms !!!???!? Are you serious Sligoman ?
They're tiny little things - 4 mushrooms would do nothing other than leave a bad taste in your mouth. You need to take about 10 times that number for anything to happen.
Sounds a bit suss to me.
