Excuse me, but do you people ever consider "innocence" when you
tear defenseless herbs out of the ground in order to sell them
to your addicts? Of course not. The concepts of guilt and innocence
do not apply to the wilderness, they belong to the abomination
called "civilization". Only within the context of civilized
discourse can the pros and cons of allowing certain baser forms
of amusement be properly discussed. For the current topic it seems
to be too late for that already. As soon as a matter has been
politicized all that remains is so and not so, and while the great
ones proclaim their righteousness, or for that matter their
evilness, the little ones bleed. Maybe the naturefolks could use
the pit as an arena to show off their own various morphs to each
other and to the farmers. Perhaps that way everyone would be happy.
