    Watching a TV show here that mentioned prohibition in the States and it got me thinking. For over 10 year alcohol was banned over there whereas 50-60 years ago in Ireland it was only men that were allowed to enter pubs, it would be unheard of for a woman to be seen in a pub of any description.

    For over a thousand years South American indigenous peoples have chewed the leaves of Erythroxylon coca, a plant that contains vital nutrients as well as cocaine.

    So what drugs/things that are illegal now will be within the law in 50 years time?

    The coca leaf does NOT contain cocaine. Cocaine only comes into existence when the coca leaves are mixed with certain chemicals and put through a manufacturing process.

    Coca leaves on their own are used just like tea leaves or coffee. They provide a slightly stimulating drink just like any caffeine drink like tea or coffee.

    the indigenous people would use couriers to transport messages aong the andes,these curies would run long distances whilst chewing the leaves of the coca plant

    50 years?! They're doing a nake dbike ride in Cork in less than 2 months (probably with wheels though).

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    I think a mild compromise is in order to avoid a 50 year wait? That said, the wheels really are just a practical: can't imagine them objecting to a naked bike-walk to be fair...

    Gay marriage, abortion, weed.

    Not one of them affects me personally (well maybe the abortion one but hopefully that won't be something I ever face with a partner) but they should be available legally to adults who want them.

    The day I see a stoned married gay couple going in for an abortion is the day I die a happy man

    Either everything will be legal because we will be living in a post apocalyptic zombie type situation like in the walking dead, or everything that is forbidden in under Sharia Law will be illegal as we will be taken over by Muslims by then. So its zombies or muslims.

    This is why Sharia Law stands no chance in Ireland. Don't get between an Irish man and his processed pork products.
