Even a blind pig finds an acorn now and then. Still good news though.
If destroying a person's life over mnarijuana is unacceptable, it's equally unacceptable to destroy a life over heroin or cocaine or meth (yes, even meth). Or are the lives and freedom of pot smokers swomehow more precious than the lives and freedom of the rest of us?
What I want to know is, why is it acceptable for government to destroy lives at all? The so-called "war on drugs" is being waged against ALL Americans, not just pot smokers. US drug policy is nothing but a system of laws enacted and enforced for the sole purpose of destroying human life. Some people believe that evil of this magnitude can be "reformed." I, for one, do not.
