 Hoffman was the originator of lsd . but the government was testing it on solder's for some time .

Hoffman  took a shit load of lsd in his life and sill made 98yrs old with no dementia .I think h was like 95 when he was awarded with something like top 100 smartest people alive

So it was a pretty good watch then? I planned on trying to catch it but somehow only caught a little bit of Discovery Channel's Throwback shows of Monster Garage :lol:

They had a great documentary on White boy Rick , recently.   The amount of corruption with in the system is astounding. It was incredible the amount of people he was tied to. Detroit corruption is unprecedented. He actually had retired FBI agents at his parole hearing, testifying what these people had done to him and how they are still lying. Going on 3o years for a drug conviction, the longest serving juvenile in Michigan history. Murders, rapists, hit men, all let out, and still he sits. smh!

Part 2 is on right now....fuck we have no moral authority over anybody. Employing Nazi Klaus Barbie to help overthrow the Bolivian Government and turn it into a narco state. WTF. 

We created The cocaine problem and then spent billions fighting it...so stupid.

Legalize them all, hell even let the govt mfg and sell them to pay bills.  Just don't come crying for someone else to pay for your rehab or extended unemployment because you can't hold or find a job.

On a related note the Netflix show Narcos about the rise of Pablo Escobar and The Medellin and Cali Cartels is excellent.

The documentary The Cocaine Cowboys are a great watch.   What a shit show Miami was then.  Remove the money you remove the violence.   Places like Chicago don't have a gun problem they have a drug/money problem.
