Many of the online headshops (a store that sells pipes, bongs, etc.) based in the US have been closed. Just another example of how annoying the US government can be. I understand weed is illegal but buying a pipe shouldn't be, the pipe itself isn't the drug. What makes me mad is that this won't stop people from smoking weed, it'll only make it a little harder to get pipes (ex. they have to buy from a person who makes them). This really doesn't acomplish anything. I think the DEA has better things to be doing than closing down headshops. The headshops aren't hurting anyone...I know weed can mess up your life if you let it but the DEA closing down headshops will not make sure that doesn't happen. |
ing ridiculous and absurd |

Actually, the U.S does technically have the right to close the place, and bongs can be considered illegal, because in the U.S drug paraphinelia(sp?) is almost as bad as actually having the drug, its a misdemeanor i think. |
Nope, it's only illegal once weed has been resonated (smoked) in there...and even then it's pocession which is only a violation (this is New York State law btw). If you get caught with it after you smoke out of it, then thats your problem but you should at least be able to buy it in the first place. |

Can't sell pipes, cuz people might get high.

the bongs sold online AREN't ILLEGAL int he first place, anywhere if u buy a pipe they always tell u it's for tobacco, and when u first buy it that is what it is considered, untill u smoke weed out of it, or have weed on u while u have the bong, it ISN'T drug paraphanaliea (??? on sep;lling) |

Let's also sell massive quantities of alcohol, so people can become agressive and go buy guns and kill eachother, and take out a busload of schoolchildren while drunk driving!
god bless america! :rolleyes: |

I could walk down the street to the convenience store during the day and check out their niiiice collection of tobacco smoking pipes... All you need is a screen and dude you're set for the reefer. Right here in town, usa. |

whats it like in the states for drugs then ? where i live u can skin up pretty much anywhere as long as your not holding it in front of peoples faces or in a really public place, and u could walk down the street and smoke a joint and not worry about being pulled over or grassed (no pun intended) on by someone :p
the states suck :whip:
and bongs are sold as tobbacco pipes or ornaments ;) |
