Sometimes around last week a twenty-eight year old man, going by the names Alexander Monsoon of British descent was killed under custody in the hands of the infamous Kenya police force at the south coast of the island Mombasa. The boy was nabbed for allegedly smoking a spliff of marijuana outside one of the popular night clubs with a friend. Period. ........
Sometimes again in the year 2000 or 2001, another boy called Sila was shot dead by police in a bush ambush at some woods along the play field of the University of Nairobi. Crime? They were smoking marijuana! A huge student body force poured in to the streets and engaged the notorious cops in battle for days on end till the University shut down while investigations were set to unravel the circumstances of the cold blood murder. Such investigations usually take as long as would get the public busy till such a time that other important eye-catching issues will pass that incident and the file be hurled in to the dustbin of record or history as the case may be.
Well,our government is very paranoid when it comes to dealing with marijuana, a small time substance compared to being stealth whenever they approach the big-time multimillion dollar drug-baron cocaine-heroine deals.Whenever they approach the marijuana substance users, consumers or growers, mayhem usually accompanies arbitrary arrests and detentions, unlawful torture, brutality not to mention the heavy fines and penalties that the archaic law that's never been touched by reforms allows. I would primarily like to mention that marijuana is largely used, consumed and grown in all parts of the republic by people of all genres, i.e. the lay as well as the career professionals in both the public and private sectors: from the legislatures to doctors to lawyers to engineers, teachers, members of the disciplined forces, civil servants, all have amongst them adept users, consumers who rely on the growers in the far flung sub-urban and country sides.In fact in the rural areas, it is considered the equivalent of a cigarette since it's use and consumption is immemorial.
Delving a deep further , I would like to note with special concern that marijuana is legal in the Netherlands and as is now common knowledge most European Countries and some states in The US have softened their laws regarding the use, consumption and growth of marijuana. Marijuana or hemp as preferably known in other countries has a lot of use ranging from industrial to medical. It produces the best paper , I hear favorable for making paper money and still it's seed are used for the production of oil. It's an important derivative for the manufacture of euthanasia as well as most tablets,syrups or capsules found in drug stores.
Given the unwarranted torturous, brutal, libelous approach tantamount to that unleashed to murder, terrorism or armed robbery criminals;it is highly hypocritical because the more serious drug offenders { cocaine / heroine}go Scot free and in the worst sycophant circumstances get taken care-of by the very government purportedly harassing, torturing and killing the other sublime users / consumers of some harmless weed called marijuana. It's along these unfounded double standards and bureaucratic mentality that the government saw it fit to distribute up to 80,000 free needles and syringes to curb the spread of HIV / AIDS among the users of inject able narcotic drugs { rd: heroine }. Government reports say there are 26,000 heroine injectors in Mombasa followed by 20,000 in Nairobi. They have not estimated the numbers in the other major towns of which I think the difference is countered for in the remaining of the 80,000. The men of the cloth claim the govt, should instead build more rehab centers for addicts as a measure to curb more sharing of the needles and syringes and discourage any more youths to engage in narcotic drugs as a means of 'getting high.' Well, talk about getting high. Everybody gets their kicks in different ways . Some take alcohol, some chew khat { illegal in neighboring Tanzania where it attracts heavy sentences and penalties- the same khat is very legal in Kenya where it's widely chewed by people of all genre. }, some take prescription drugs, some take lots of tea / coffee, some engage in sex, homo and or hetero-sexual ........name it. Now, almighty god I would like to know who is eschewed with this mighty task of deciding / forbidding who get to get their kicks by using and / or consuming what . Later virtual s, logistics.
Seven earth-like exo-planets in terms of size, density and solar-radiation orbiting their dwarf-star (sun) in TRAPPIST-1 Solar System 40 light-years away whereby three hang in the 'habitable zone' {in relative proportional-dimensions to earth from its sun} indicating they can support 'liquid'-water on the surface making them potential destinations for technogeneticultural anatomically-modern postranshominization civilizations to colonize for habitation should a catastrophe threaten us.
