The Government's Sick War on Marijuana

From 2007, a great video by Jim Hightower (http://www.hightowerdownload.com)

Excuse me for a moment while I vent about the mind-boggling stupidity of the autocratic, bureaucratic, right-wing, Neanderthal numskulls who keep pushing an insane, inane, and inhumane holy war against marijuana -- which is, after all, a weed.

The holy warriors have become more fanatical and thuggish than ever. A marijuana arrest is made every 41 seconds in America -- nine out of 10 of them for mere possession. In 2004, 772,000 Americans were arrested on marijuana charges -- more than for all violent crimes combined.

Legalize it. The government is wasting our precious tax dollars on war under false pretenses and locking us up for relieving our pain or stress. Whatever happened to the pursuit of happiness being a right?

It's not at all still widely available & if your one of the lucky few who can get the GOOD stuff among the shitty weed it's so flippin' expensive. Cunts.

Why don't you have a drugged out hippie as your spokesman instead of some Texan guy. I support the war on drugs and support the DEA in arresting these crazy drug addicts who are bringing crime and violence on the streets.
