Oh yeah, and fuck nimbin. Nimbin will be forgotten soon when the cannabis laws change, hell, the locals know it. Sadly the majority make a living from ripping off those they think know no better. When most if not all of the stoners that travel through nimbin know much more about legitimate quality cannabis than most of locals ever will or could . Dana larsen said it best at the lecture he gave at Mardigrass last year. "Nimbin has a long way to go yet as the quality around town is far behind most of the quality cannabis elsewhere as they are still growing the old way" (paraphrased and bastardised somewhat sorry ) he is right though, the majority of canna sold in nimbin is the bunk, the locals probably smoke some sub-par street level shit though.

 

Fuck the police to, what would they do without the drug war ? Lose their jobs ? .
