Kansas City Man Charged With Toad Smoking – Next up Poop Snorting

Law enforcement in Kansas City is discovering what many have known through the ages, the simple fact that many people will go to great and often dangerous lengths to get high, while some utilize drugs to access another dimension , for example, Timothy Leary and his LSD experiments. Still others like Shaman still use various hallucinogenic plants in religious and healing rituals. It’s safe to say drugs in one form or another are here to stay, whether authorized by the government or not.

When police investigated a northern Kansas City home to investigate a suspected meth lab, they arrested a 21 year old, charging him with three counts of possession of a controlled substance and one of possessing drug paraphernalia – in this instance, the the toad. To be accurate, you need a Sonoran Desert toad often found near the Colorado River. You cannot lick any ol’ toad!

Clay County Prosecutor Daniel White said possessing the toad is not illegal, but using it to get high from the venom is. Licking the venom used to be the more common method of obtaining the venom, it is being replaced by smoking it. Either method requires a startled or scared toad.

There are sites which show videos online describing how to extract the venom and dry it for smoking, so do not, under any circumstances….light up an unsuspecting toad as if it were a large pop eyed cigar!The Toad Bush AP 12/3/07

As we cruise into yet another year of the failed drug war, let us examine what people who enjoy getting high, are driven to when their drug of choice isn’t available. Let me qualify that statement, what SOME people are driven to instead of their drug of choice. For the views of professional lawmen and women who worked in the War on Drugs, and their feelings about it now, please see LEAP and find out why they know it is a waste of money and man-power!
