As a copy editor and proofreader, I love this. People love to ridicule “grammar Nazis,” but look what happens when grammar goes wrong.
Do you know the further down the derivatives road they push the more dangerous the drugs hitting the streets are???
Fentanyl and its even worse derivative car-fentanyl are so unbelievable dangerous in mcg amounts that just breathing in a little white power will kill.
In this battle between addicts and the police, the battleground gets ever more deadly.
I suspect (fear?), that very few legislators actually understand, or even read, most of the laws they enact. Anywhere.
It is Fat Tuesday, and punctuation carnivale all over the world it seems, with Project Veritas' logorrhea

How it fills me with longing, to think of a world in which the battles were like the battle of the Oxford Comma.
“I wish it need not have happened in my time,” said Frodo.
“So do I,” said Gandalf, “and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.” The Fellowship of the Ring, J.R.R Tolkien
Where are the EDITORS when you really need them?
Oh. Wait.
Punctuation is racist.
Just another brilliant example of the utter incompetence of the German government! A bunch of morons...
Well if Germany is anything like the UK when it comes to formulating Laws - it's no great surprise.
Decades ago the UK abandoned the perfectly sensible practise of allowing actual lawyers/specialist counsel to draft laws in favour of allowing dimwit but ostensibly university qualified civil servants to do the same job - but more cheaply.
However the bonus for us practising lawyers is yet again to prove that the Law of Unintended Consequences reigns Supreme.
Drum roll for one of the best and a real dog's breakfast (pun intended) I give you the Dangerous Animals/Dogs Acts 1991 and 2014.
Apologies for going off topic a bit
The CIA tested LSD in the 50s and 60s, but found to their chagrin that test subjects were prone to think independently and creatively.
This awful substance needs to be banned!
Don't these people ever get tired of being idiots?
Is it Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds or Monty Python at the ministry?
Louderbark has the appearance of one who might have sampled the now legal derivative: away with the fairies expression.
It might explain some of his bizarre announcements.
To a British reader-Grubwinkler is a hell of a name!
Teutonic gravitas
Oh, this is wonderful.
By the way--I so enjoy the occasional opportunity to compare the subtle differences in meaning between German and English words that have a common derivation. "Krank" and "cranky," for example, and now here "Stoffe" and "stuff." Great fun.
You mean they weren't tripping balls when they wrote that law?
(Sweden's narcotics' laws are exactly the same, basically being "If we don't think you should, it's illegal".)
Ain't paralytic bureaucracy grand? 🤣🤣🤣
By the way, thanks for the window of information into how to evade the tyranny of the majority with respect to recreational drugs as well!
I've always thought that he might have been using the nasal route for the white stuff , which would account for the manic expression.
To be fair though ,we have our fair share of barmy jobsworths and rumours are now suggesting that some of our senior public servants have regular orders with local dealers.
