Officer punches girl in face...

I'm a conservative... and I don't smoke weed. Yet, I also don't think it should be illegal and all the harsh penalties placed ontop of it! The "War on Drugs" is a complete joke... a total lie!

Amen. I'm a liberal -- and I don't smoke either.

It's not the mainstream media, it's Dow Chemical and their peers that caused and continue to promote the misconceptions.

Historical Fact:

Marijuana was classified as a narcotic (which it isn't) because of strong lobbying efforts by Dow and other companies decades ago. Why? So hemp would be replaced by their nylon, rayon and other synthetic products.

Exactly! Hemp and Marijuana are different! You cannot draw enough THC (active chemical ingredient) in hemp to get a high. It is all about the profits for Dow and other companies.

I'm a conservative as I stated... a fiscal conservative. Yet, when it comes to social issues... like these... to best descibe me would be a Libertarian...

Cheers!
