Thorgnor Posted September 23, 2003 Report Share Posted September 23, 2003 "Angel's Trumpet" - Isn't that Datura? Try www.erowid.com for some less ridiculous accounts. This story reminds me of reefer madness. Not to say that Datura isn't heavy/heady, but any maniac can take a drug and then blame it for his fucked up reactions. They are right about the dosage problem. Due to the fact that it is a plant you cannot control dosage without familiarity with the agricultural techniques used to grow the plant. NEVER ingest a strange plant that your friend isn't already enjoying. And taking the same size dose doesn't mean that you're a sissypants, just being safe. People have been using this plant as a gateway to the subconscious/soul for millenia. Besides Prostitutes using it as a poison, in India they still use it for revealling the future. In Central and South America it was used to help Shaman tell the future and to help with the transmutation of humans into animals. In North America some groups fed it to boys during a rite of passage into manhood so that they would forget what it was to be a boy and to learn how to be a man. And during the Muslim rule of Europe, the so called Dark Ages, European witches used Datura to help both with divination, flight and transformation rituals. It has been used safely by some and it has been deadly for others. Knowledge of what you are taking is key in any drug endeavor. Just because it is natural doesn't mean that it's safe. But this type of reaction is why LSD is illegal instead of used to help in special cases of mental illness. This is a graphic reason why we should all disagree without question with the American policy of a War on Drugs. This way know one has any idea about poisons, drugs or chemicals that may harm people. Parents can be held responsible when accidents in the garden occur due to children's curiosity and caretaker ignorance. But they are prevented from stopping these accidents by a lack of education. If they don't know what the drug looks like, how it grows or where, they may have a beautiful murderer in their front gardens ready for them to be liable for. All drugs are poisons. Otherwise you wouldn't feel so effed up when you're on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Low Roller Posted September 24, 2003 Report Share Posted September 24, 2003 So does this qualify him for a Darwin Award now that he's technically unable to pollute the gene pool? Typically Darwin Awards are given to people who remove themselves entirely from the gene pool by doing something so stupid that natural selection has no choice but to take over, but this is an interesting technicality....
