With the misguided war on Kratom I thought maybe some words could be in place on an issue that has been bothering me for a while. If the DEA gets their way, some US citizens have to find an alternative for that, and for a lot it could be recreational or medical marijuana.
I came to know about Kratom some time ago.
I wrote about the positive effect of weed and often if I write something that goes against the opinion of Stuart, I get a lot of mails, telling me I´m off track. Well, I wasn’t made in a petri dish as a SW clone.
Anybody in their right mind wouldn’t challenge my respect and love for the man, but with respect and love comes also honesty. If not, it’s not respect and love. It’s parroting and I’m not a birdman.
In this case people started telling me they used Kratom and not Cannabis, since Stuart was clearly against weed, and stated that it was ghoulish and opened a door of possession and such. The effect his view on this had/has on his followers was basically that they put away the weed, also the ones that needed it medically and tried out alternatives like: Kratom and Kava Kava.
There are big differences in these three compounds, and yet they somehow correspond. Learning that by doing could be a fair road to take, since the more personal benefits seem to differ. Personally I cannot deal with Kava Kava, since it is too low of a frequency, but maybe that’s just me and that is my point in all this.
