Yup, Americans got the hell out and tried to sell this as "not a failure". What a load of crap indeed. No wonder nobody in the Middle East buys this democracy thing at all. Americans wasted 20 years building democracy in Afghanistan and managed to accomplish absolutely nothing. Ho-Chin Minh is probably laughing in his grave :lol:

New and totally unexpected topic in Slovak parliament, we have a weed war :d

 

MEP of the PS (Progersivne Slovensko) Tomáš Valášek presents his own proposal for the decriminalization of marijuana in Slovakia. Parliament should discuss it at the November part-session. In addition to this amendment, MEPs will discuss a proposal to reduce severe penalties for Marijuana possession, which were introduced by MEPs from the leading Coalition parties. Valášek comes up with a proposal that would decriminalize the storage of marijuana for personal consumption up to the amount of 60 grams of the substance...dear lord :lol:, or the cultivation of five pieces of plants.

 

According to the press release of Progressive Slovakia, the current legal regulation punishes people who are not dangerous for society with heavy penalties.

 

Which is a fact the pain for using and posession of Marijuana is in Slovakia currently the highest in Europe. You can basically finish in prison for longer time than for a murder lol. For possession of more than 3 "doses" you are punishable from 10 to 25 years. :p

 

All parties (except the Neo-Nazis) basically agreed with the reducing penalties proposals and should vote for it this month, now on the decriminalization, but I feel like this can happen only when elephants will fly above the Tatras lol

That does sound like an excellent change though :cheer: 

 

Prison sentences simply for possessing a bit of weed is madness...especially when tobacco or alcohol is fine.

BBC (aka constitution of democracy) declares it's a clear murder but manipulated and corrupt judges and jurors announced he's innocent. So let's welcome to the world of arbitrary murders. No one's gonna save and liberate the poor Americans by bombing their houses? At least sanction those officials!

    • As a Montreal Canadien fan, I am in agreement. However, he is struggling recently and is demoted to the 4th line this week. Hoping he can turn it around. 
    • I read now that Valentina Rodini will be in the new team of Tizzano + Galtarossa and Martini. I was probably in such an information bubble on Instagram that I thought that only Abbagnale was running a campaign and had a team of people around him. That's why I was surprised by his defeat + the fact that, for example, Rodini supports his rival. But as I wrote, for me the change in the general coach position is a plus. We need a new opening and a new impulse: Cattaneo had his best results in Tokyo and then he only explained that his rowers were running away abroad to the USA to study and that's why he had worse results. Ok, except that it's the same in Romania and Greece but they results are comparable or better. It's obvious that no one here will make the UK or the Netherlands, because we don't have such resources and money but I think we can repeat the Romanian results (2 gold - 3 silver in Paris) and that will be a much better result than the 2 silver in this year.
    • Abbagnale boasted that he had 80 per cent a few days before the vote (I still have the screen) and ran again as a result of a power deal. Not a great loss.   I have doubts about the new technical director though, you can't announce him during the congress, brandishing the scalp of the Abbagnale era technical staff (who then, were Crispi's men). Let's hope there are no rifts between the new staff and the athletes, it had to be handled better.
    • I was surprised by Abbagnale's defeat. I thought he was a sure of victory, since he decided to run - I read some source that he didn't know if he would start before Paris 2024. What do you think about it?
