Twas way back....Mr. Wizard...68' and my young drug using career was being tutored by another young hippie but husband and father of two. "Butch" was also a junkie and he warned me to never try heroin. Said I'd like it too much and I shouldn't end up like him. Advice I also took seriously. The thing that really bothered me at the time was something he said about herbs and hallucinagens. He told me the government was lying about the effects out of fear that we would "become awakened" if we all used them. Odd words but it made sense more and more as the years have gone by. Still to this day the government still lies and changes facts at will. But it was this original lie that led me to question everything and not to take their word on anything. Butch also said uppers and downers would hook and kill me just as quick as horse but the government wants us all hooked on their man-made drugs so they could profit. They could still chase hippies around and blame all the crime on them.
