Today, the Yankees lost their bid at the world series and I couldn't be happier.
Or so I thought...
Truly, I was elated and thought to myself, "what could possibly make this any sweeter?" Well, in a word: LEAGALIZATION. Yes, thats right. Alaska has a forthcoming proposed bill to completely decriminalize mary jane. I can almost smell the controversy from here. I can hear the protests from all you squares out there and it makes me giddy. Legalizing pot will mean a sharp decrease in the price of the drug since dealers will become legitimate and no longer have to worry about the fuzz wrecking shop on thier enterprizes. It will take the drug out of the hands of young kids who previously were able to get it from the big bully around the corner. How can he possibly keep his business when 7-11 will be slanging two for one deals on packs of ciggaweed? It will generate tax revenue that can be filtered into AA and NA programs throughout the state. Not to mention it is our right as human beings to do what we want with our own bodies anyway.
Yes. Sure enough all regimes fade. Rome is burning, and it smells like the stickiest of the icky.
Let me take your counter points head on before you can even get them through your coffee stained, oral sex deprived, little work-a-holic mouths. Pot is not bad. Sure it isn't going to make you Mr. Universe and inhaling smoke can't be good for you... but let me give you a list of things that aren't good for your health, as well. It is a short one: BEING ALIVE IS BAD FOR YOUR HEALTH. Yes. I said it and who is going to take the opponent chair on that one? Anybody out there who has lived forever? OK. Well you can debate me. For the rest of you I have one question: Why you wanna player hate on me?
You might say that it is a gateway drug. Consider this. It is a gateway drug only in the sense that it exposes users to the realm of illegal drugs. A kid who is told indoctrinated with all these trumped up DRUGS ARE BAD type statements... that kid upon discovering that pot isn't that bad at all will then ask himself, "what else did they lie to me about?"
But once again I am writing very late and I have no motivation to continue. GUESS WHY!
Well, it is because I have a cold. That is why. Haven't even touched the ganj today.
PEACE TO THE MIDDLE EAST!
