Yes.

In that case, you're exactly the kind of sheep that politicians thrive
on.
Pot is no worse for you than alcohol. Pot does a job on your lungs, and
MAYBE your brain. Booze does a job on your liver, stomach, esophagus, and
MAYBE your brain. Pot is illegal because of outmoded beliefs, many of
which
originated with racist nonsense left over from J. Edgar Hoover's earliest
days.


Pot is racist?


Its use was initially attacked early in the last century by the government
because Southern lawmakers thought its use by black people led to madness
and criminal behavior. Obviously, these lawmakers were happy to ignore all
the violence caused by drunkenness. The next myth used by the law
enforcement mob was that pot use led to harder drugs, an anecdote that's
been totally shredded by actual statistics.

Who's statistics, "High Times"?

You really are a pothead like Kevin.


What proof do you have that Kevin is a pothead, little one?


Referring to yourself in the third person. Nice!

Care to take the $5000 challenge? You seem so sure of yourself, so what
have you got to lose? Put up, or shut up?
