A 21-year-old man has been accused of using a toad to get high.

I like the comment below about princesses kissing frogs .. that makes so much sense!
Hmmm ... I wonder if that is why evil fairy tail witches turned everyone into toads ... Personal Stash!
The new psychodeLICK is "L.S.T." ... Licking Slimey Toads!
If a toad sits on a Magic Mushroom does that make it a Toad Stool?
Imagine what will happen when college chemistry majors get ahold of this ... Designer Toads!
Lick, Rinse, Ribbeet!

...since the Hollywood Market grocery store, back in the late 60's, started requiring people to show ID to buy bananas, lest they make them into Mellow Yellow - - which, unlike toad venom, didn't actualy get you high.
The kicker was that last line: "The toad is in custody..."
And I'll bet he just looks adorable in the little orange jump suit!

If a guy is dumb enough to lick a toad, he gets what he deserves.

lick that toad at your peril - it is still poison. As a former prosecutor I must agree that the war on drugs has only served as a price support mechanism and legalizing them would drop prices immediately - probably resulting in mass murders among the dealers as debts go unpaid.
But - to be in jail for toad-licking - I can see that the other prisoners will have fun with that darwin award contestant.

Ah yes, the weird roads the War on Drugs takes us, which, by they way, created an alternate and much boosted (black market) economy. That's right. Anything you make illegal fetches a higher price.
And with this war, all those jobs and jails involved.
And with this war, the fact that the US, along with the UK, has the highest percentage of people in jail in the modern world.
And with a war market, we also now have a paramilitary which has operated abroad as well as on our soil. Blackwater. New Orleans. Etc.
From Possession of Toad with Intent to Lick to 10 Things You Must Know About Squashing Democracy [Web LINK] , it's all very interesting. And all so wrong.
Legalize drugs.

I have to think this sort of thing doesn't get you the best bunk or first place in the chow line in the joint. "What are you in for..." As I recall, I'm not sure toad-licking is even the accurate form of use for what they were trying to do. I think it's certain species that excrete some kind of DMT-like chemical, and I recall reading somewhere that you had to collect little flakes of it and smoke it. Personally, I'll settle for a bit of 15-year old single malt, but to each his own....

We always kept the cats & dogs inside after a big rain because the toads came out. My neighbors dog died because he put his nose on one and kinda nudged it - they can kill a fairly good sized animal if it licks them. If you are so zoned that you feel toad licking is your thing - remember to keep your weight up and the amount of venom low because that buzz is the warning that you are about to die if you keep it up. Poison - I guess toad-lickers should be nominated for the Darwin awards?

You know, I've been bored but I have NEVER been so bored that I thought, "Hey, I wonder what would happen if I licked that toad." This toad-high thing was in the news back when I was in high school. Even the most dedicated stoners in my school agreed that while they would smoke anything they could fit into a bong or a rolling paper, tongue-washing amphibians was just too far to go for a buzz.

Suddenly the police are arresting people for having pet amphibians.
And how much anyone want to bet that because of this, the police will asking for more money in their budget to combat the "toad' problem?
