Marijuana poses a greater danger to the United States than heroin, cocaine or amphetamines, said Mr. Walters, the director of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy, in an interview yesterday in Vancouver. About 60 per cent of six million people who need treatment services for drug abuse in the United States are dependent on marijuana, he said.

That is about the biggest load of crap I have ever heard about MJ.

The Bush administration cannot fight the War on Terror and stamp out marijuana at the same time. This cannot be done and the continued fear mongering and lies about marijuana by the Drug Czar just makes the administration look like a laughing stock. Here is a tip for the feds, legalize it, so you can tax it and regulate it! That's simple enough, isn't it?

The Bush administration, nor any other administration can stamp out MJ in absence of the war on terror or any other war. The war on MJ can never and will never be won.

You should audition for the lead role.
You just might win an Oscar, and wouldn't even have to act!

Beauty pageants pose a greater threat to Islam than pork, alcohol, or Zionism, said Imam Sahib, the director of the Nigerian office of Shari'ah Enforcement in an interview yesterday in Ouagadougou.

I don't think you'd have to actually smoke it...
I just think you're capable of portraying the dibilitating effects without it.

I don't think I'd be able to seem like a convincing Cheech and Chong type. I could do some more outlandish spoofs of the Cheech & Chong types. Have a script where I refer to it as MY PRECIOUSSSSSSSSS or something lol.

We need to outlaw alcohol too. Then people will stop drinking.

Any moron knows the quickest way to defund terrorists that rely on the illegal drug trade is to make drugs legal. Why are politicians so stupid?

If they legalize drugs and those drug cops are out on their ass then said drug cops will vote against those pols now won't they. Most things become clear if you get cynical enough.
