Look into it. Al Quaida DOES support themselves somewhat through heroin sales (saying they smuggle "drugs" is inaccurate...they're involved in heroin and heroin alone -- they don't know from marijuana, or crack cocaine)...but they smuggle that heroin through their network of honey merchants, and they also use honey-money (ha!) to buy their weapons. So if you drink a lot of tea, or are fond of Honey Smacks, just remember who you're supporting.
: Also, are the police going to use this angle as a reason to crack down even harder?
Well, I *do* find it unsettling that with all that's going on in the world, the feds have nothing better to do than go back to busting medical marijuana suppliers in California. I mean, terrorism is bad and all, but something has GOT to be done about these stoned terminal cancer patients.
: The government's war on drugs is retarded.
If by retarded you mean ineffective, incredibly expensive, and damaging to the civil liberties of the American people...then yes it is.
