Marijuana Blog

The following is an open letter to Vice Preisdent of the Missouri Narcotics Officers Association Kevin Glaser. It was published on our blog on Tuesday and circulated to the media. As of this writing, it has been covered by the Riverfront Times in Saint Louis and in a front page story in the Southeast Missourian in Cape Girardeau on Thursday. So far, Glaser has not responded to me, despite the fact that I emailed him personally.

 

Sgt. Glaser,

 

I was pleased that you attended Show-Me Cannabis’ town hall meeting in Cape Girardeau last Monday, October 21. Believe it or not, we really are attempting to create a rational dialogue between the most ardent cannabis law reformers and prohibitionists and everyone in between. Despite our deep and passionate disagreements about how the law should treat those who use cannabis, I thought the discussion at the meeting remained civil and in good faith.

 

That is why I was deeply disappointed when I saw this on your public Facebook page on Wednesday:

First, I believe it is completely inappropriate for a man who has supposedly dedicated his life to public service to treat a broad swath of the public with such disdain. Just a few days after the meeting in Cape Girardeau, Gallup reported that 58 percent of the American public believes that cannabis should be legalized for adult use. Do you really mean to imply that 58 percent of the country has never visited a library, lives off welfare, and should be discouraged from voting?

 

Such comments are thoroughly unprofessional and unbecoming of a government employee, and I believe you owe the people who attended the meeting and Missouri taxpayers generally an apology.

Summer may be over but people still have ice cream cravings while it's snowing out. And if you're craving ice cream, you should probably be eating medicated ice cream, right? This recipe for homemade ice cream is not only easy but delicious! Definitely highly recommended ;)

 

What You'll Need;

18fl of cream

Pinch of salt

15oz of bananas

3 tablespoons rum

2 tablespoons butter

1/4 oz crumbled hash or 10 grams crushed bud

75 grams sugar

5 tablespoons honey

 

Put the cream in a saucepan until it's nearly boiling, while melting the butter, sugar, and salt in a second pan. Take your hash and heat it up with a flame. Crumble it in to the melted butter, stirring continuously. Whisk the cream with the butter mixture. Mash up the bananas in a second bowl. When they've been thoroughly ground up, add in the cream, rum, and honey. You can add in other ingredients here as well, like nuts or crushed cookies. Pretty much anything you feel like adding.

 

Now that everything is put together, mix it well. All of the ingredients should be beaten together to form a paste-like substance. Pour it in to a cold, plastic container and cover it. Stick the bowl in the freezer for a few hours, until it's mushy. Turn the bowl over above a different chilled bowl. Whisk the substance until it's smooth and then cover it, placing it back in the freezer until it's firm. Before serving, move the ice cream to the fridge so that it has a chance to soften up.
