These filthy democrats must have regular brainstorming sessions trying to figure out what to ban next and who to screw over.

Nicotine and caffeine increase productivity. Weed, not so much.

I don’t drink or smoke, but it sounds like prohibition all over again. Black market time.

It will never happen. The state is probably raking in 5 or 6 bucks per pack in taxes. Taxes paid primarily by poor and helpless nicotine addicts.

Just off the cuff, it probably won’t go over well.

And I believe smoking pot will produce generations of potheads who only want to smoke it and not bother with work. Hey, don’t worry. I’m sure the Demoncrats want that as they could then promise all the weed you want as long as you obey us.

I smoke Cuban cigars ordered by mail from Europe—never paid a penny in taxes since they are “illegal”.

Someday every smoker will get to be an evil criminal like me....

“There’s no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.”
