John Morales, the actor who played the crime-fighting cartoon character McGruff the Crime Dog, was sentenced to 16 years in prison stemming from a 2011 arrest in which police seized 1,000 marijuana plants, 27 weapons – including a grenade launcher – and 9,000 rounds of ammunition from his home.

    Chewing on a coca leaf really isn’t the same as processing the plant into cocaine. By the logic of the comedian, buds are plants but concentrates are drugs. 😌

      I’d love to have “cocaine light” available, maybe not chewing the leaves but in some form or another, that is less intense than the well known powder. Basically just a step above coffee, would be amazing for my long work days.

        You can just put actual cocaine in stuff.

        Like. Coca Cola with cocaine in it is actually fucking delicious. Seriously, delicious. You can tell right away that’s the way it’s meant to be.

          I’ve never actually done coke, would that add a subtle numbing effect on the mouth? It sounds 100x better than snorting it, I could see it being massively popular if not illegal.

            There is indeed a slight numbing effect. You don’t really get a proper coke high off it either unless you dump a shitload of it in. It’s more of a subtle energizing effect, very different from snorting it.

            Though I’d imagine you could just dump a shitload of blow into the Coca Cola and get high as balls. Not sure how it all works when ingested orally.

        Mate de coca! Very pleasant tea, great treatment for altitude sickness. Fun fact, the largest importer of coca leaves is Coke, as it’s rumored to be one of the ingredients in coca cola.

        Cough.

      And in both cases, missing the point. Categorize based on the chemistry, not the source of the chemical.
